Begin from a Page XY

Hello.
Does anyone know how to play a gamebook f.e. from page Nr. XYZ and not always from beginning (Page 1), when you click the play button?

I have got now something around 30 pages and it is very tedious to go each time through the whole story for only testing the last page.

Best regards


You can just move your 'player' Player Object (in the GUI/Editor) to the desired page you want to start in, as this is how your start location/page is determined by quest.

however... if you need to have a bunch of actions/changes done too (for a simple game state design example: it doesn't do any good moving your character to the final area of your game requiring a key to open the door and fight the final boss without also having to provide that character with the needed key, this type of 'game state' stuff can be very complicated depending on how complex your game is)... you'd need to use the 'Walkthrough' (which is like creating a command list of actions to do, as if you were playing the game, which quest will do for you, it's kinda like having a programmable controller for a fighting game and you programmed in the combination sequence of moves/attacks to do a near impossible combo for a human to do normally, and especially during competitive play)

or... you can create/have a (warp/move) "cheat" Command too for while playing the game to be able to use, but again if you require a bunch of actions/changes done, this means you've got to manually add in all the scripting needed to make/do those changes/actions.


Thanks very much my friend!
