Scenario Creation Q&A
 

Hey guys. I have created this thread as a sort of Q&A database for Scenario creation related questions. For example if someone wants to ask "How do I make an NPC follow a path?", and someone thinks they can answer feel free to post.

I shall try to link to valuable Q&A posts from on and off this thread in post 2 below.

Remember, theres no such thing as a stupid question when it comes to the Ring. Some people pick it up from the start, some people will start and not have a clue. So don't be afraid to ask :)

Re: Scenario Creation Q&A
 

If a scenario is running and is in act 2, if someone joins do they start in act 2?

Re: Scenario Creation Q&A
 

I would assume so. But I could be wrong. It would make it awefully confusing to make them join act 1 while there are people in say act 3 and 5 or something...

Would also like a definitive answer on this!

Re: Scenario Creation Q&A
 

Players will join in in act 2 alright. Ring scenarios aren't personal instances but stick to the outlaid course once someone 'acts' and triggers. Those that enter halfway the film won't catch the intro credits either.

It is entirely possible however to create an automatic (on condition or time) reset-trigger next to the available Ringmaster Act-trigger.

Those that enter halfway have no other choice but to hope on a reset I'm afraid.

Re: Scenario Creation Q&A
 

Yes, heres my solution. I have my main scenerio, and then I have another act that recieves players. I have each act set to like a 30 minute timer to return to the recieving act. The recieving act is like "go kill a yubo to visit Kami Camp". Very simple, but it allows a reset if there is no one in the scenerio and if people abandon mid scenerio, it will auto reset too.

This works for auto-invite, not really useful for AM watching over their victims.

can i put up a scenario and still play on mainland while its up? if so how?

Re: Scenario Creation Q&A
 

I'm afraid you still can't Seawe, however it is perfectly possible to send it over to a second account if you have any, or to a friend who can host it.

Re: Scenario Creation Q&A
 

I am thinking of doing same and have extra acc for that purpose but atm it cant host anything I write with Crythos because that toon doesnt have the same "knowledge of Atys" somthing I am working on.

Re: Scenario Creation Q&A
 

You can't enter the editor and run the scenario from there if you lack Knowledge, but any character can host any scenario as a "New Destination" from a Ring terminal.
