Title: Decisions?
Post by: CapellaGoBoom on July 16, 2013, 02:51:47 pm
Hey. I frequently visit these forums and decided to make my own account. Just a quick question: will the decisions you had to make in the act 3 missions effect the outcome of the game in acts 4 & 5, kind of like mass effect?

AFAIK, that's the idea. Specially for missions like "Her finest hour." And welcome!

I think so, but do not expect miracles. FREDing WiH-like missions is already insanity, let alone take into consideration past decisions from previous chapters.

Out of professional curiosity, I would like to know how it is possible to transfer decisions made in a campaign to another. It is possible to make variables visible beyond the current campaign?

You could write stuff in a file for scripts to read in em I guess.

Or you could ask for a new feature to those with their noses in the pilot code.

No. You cannot pass data between campaigns without using lua; We are going to use a secret technique called "overriding the campaign file" to extend BP.

They've said all along that Acts 3, 4, and 5 will be one campaign. They just decided to release it early with only Act 3 finished.
