Silent teleporting, but in acs?

[Skemech]

Ik how to do silent teleporting, I believe the action id is 71. However I wanna know if you can do exaclty this but in acs. The acs command for teleport has that giant annoying green partical effect. The main reason I need acs and not traditional, is cause in the wad, when you filp a certain switch, it teleports you someplace new, but if I do it through acs I can

 

==========================

 

script 69420 (void)

{

        silent teleport (to some coordinates);

        Setmusic (0, "Songname");

}

 

=================================

 

I wanna change the song thats playing at the same time of the teleportation

Or try Teleport_NoFog. No need to give the player a TID in that case. Just have the switch call your script.

Try https://zdoom.org/wiki/TeleportOther and set fog to 0.

unfortunatly it didn't teleport me at all, with or without the green particle effect. I just flat out stayed in the same room

You'll probably want something like this:

 

#include "zcommon.acs"

script 1 ENTER {
	Thing_ChangeTID(0, 100); //assign a tag to the player
}

script 69420 (void) {
  	TeleportOther(100, 1, 0); //teleport player to teleport destination with the tag of 1
} 

ACS won't recognise the player unless you assign them a specific tag first.

You could also just use the sector action thing "9998 - Actor Enters Sector" and let that execute your script that switches the music when the player teleports into the sector. That way you don't need to use ACS for the teleport at all and the music switch is triggered separately. Same effect but less hassle.

Ok, so not only did you just solve the current problem I was having, but you solved a few others too. Thank you so much
