#   Diablo 2 Waypoints v. 1.1
#   by arevulopapo
#   Mar 1st 2007
#
#
#   To call the Waypoint scene use the "Call script" event command:
#   $scene = Scene_Waypoint.new(act, waypoint)
#   where 'act' is the act you're in (0,1,2..) and "waypoint" is the waypoint index for the act.
#
#   If you want to activate a waypoint without "touching" it
#   call a script like this:
#   $game_system.waypoints_active[act] << index
#   where 'index' is the index of the waypoint you want to activate.
#
#   See the comments in the Game_System section (right below)
#   for informations on how to customize.

oh and can someone tell me how to use it? i dont really understand i mean i tried out the demo game and i get how it works but i dont get how to customize it, so you tele to your set coordinates,

DEMO- http://www.megaupload.com/?d=KL4VN9F8

also campability issues i have sdk installed into my main project and it doesnt seem to be getting along very well

I would say it's way easier to make that with a common event...

What's a waypoint script?

First, there's the default waypoint that starts out turned on. Then, as you progress through the game, you activate different waypoints. From every waypoint, you can teleport to the other waypoints that you have.

Yay! Someone famed me from -3 to -2!

yep once u use a waypoint you activate it, but yes blizzard i agree using common events is easier, but for those who are too lazy this script is good but i dont think its very compatable it didnt work with my project

well, common events are 'much' easier, but consider this equation;

bored + makes something look nicer = new script!

Ack! About to post a waypoint thingy I used using events. Hope people like it XP

But in diablo, it brings up a nice neat menu, with all the other lands.
how would u do that with ce's?

Well, I guess you can't do that... XP But, using common events/regular events are more easily made and more useful for quick makings, I guess. I'm not really an expert, so don't hold my opinions in high regard.

Same way you do in Rm2k and Rm2k3 - - Talent...and lots of patience.

Just wanted to advertise my Waypoint demo that I made in the tutorials section. XD I guess it's relevant to this because it solves the problem, in a way.

EDIT: Just remembered that there never was a problem. XD Solve's the use of events/common events (I haven't gotten to the common events part, yet...)

But what about RM2k3 and RM2k user? And yeah, this is pretty much how Seph does it. He merely concentrates on the thing that it looks nice. He would do great if he'd work for Microsoft. =/
