Linking

Linking means connecting two different game entity, normally using the Gem-Editor. This procedure will be explained below.

As an easy example we use the railway platform as the base and a tank as the vehicle. First, you must place both entity on the map, then select the platform and copy it ( + ). Launch a text editor (ie. Windows Notepad) and pase it there ( + ). The text should look as follows:

{Entity "platform" 0x8000 {Manager 2} {Position 2.16 -155.43} {Player 0} {MID 1} {Chassis {MovementSpeed 0.0944444} } } {Brain 0x8000 {Properties {fire_mode hold} } 	{IdleMovement 0 1 0} }

Here, the SLOT-ID is. Now, we need the SLOT-ID of the vehicle, for example. Now, go to the text editor and add a new line between the two properties ( and  ). Type in: {Link 0x8000 {0x894f "vehicle"} }

The result should look like this: {Entity "platform" 0x8000 {Manager 2} {Position 2.16 -155.43} {Player 0} {MID 1} {Chassis {MovementSpeed 0.0944444} } } {Link 0x8000 {0x894f "vehicle"} } {Brain 0x8000 {Properties {fire_mode hold} } 	{IdleMovement 0 1 0} }

Select all the the text ( + ) and copy it to clip board ( + ). Go to the editor window and delete the old platform. Then paste the new one onto the map ( + ).
