howto a message before starting a map like "press space to start"

[holschuh]

Hi,

 

have anyone a snippet or entrance to this topic.

i tryed a endlessloop in the main.lua but got only blackscreen or the map runs(sound begins ..) behind the message and grabs the keys by entity scripts.

 

please lua

jep this is clear but how do i stop the map and grab the space key before an entity script do

how do i prevent the map runs in Background of the space press message and playing sounds and the enemy begin to run around and so on...

Simpliest way to do this is :

1. make a new map that is loaded at program start

2. set it up how you want it

3. when space is pressed, load the (real) first map

thats an idea, so i havent to stop all sound scripts attached to the entities by myself ... and other stuff that dont stops with Time:Pause()...

i try this, but i hoped there is an statement that Pauses all without handling this in every single script
