Start and Stop Gamemanager
« on: November 27, 2014, 04:40:52 PM »
Hi!

I have just recently starting to use Playmaker and I have a little problem that I  hope someone here can help me with.

Here is what I need some help with.

When I start the game( the level ) everything is paused and I have a menu giving the player the option to start the game by pressing a Button in the menu.
( that works and I used Scale Time action for that on my Game manager FSM.

And here is what I need help with:

When the Player Dies I want the game to stop again. In other words to get back to that "Scale time" set to 0 again.

What would be the best way to  do this? im sure there is more than one way to do this but I cant get it to work.

( In the game, I have a generator that continously generates objects that travels towards the player. To make it look like he is going forward., instead of having a camera follow the player forward. )

I hope I explained everything clearly enough and that there is someone that could help me with this. That would be greatly appreciated.

Thx/ J :o :-\

several things are not stopped with scale time

what you can do maybe is send a global event to those thing that did not stop and set it to a different state
