Code:
AddActivity = GAScripted
   PresetName = <MISSION NAME HERE>
   SceneName = <SCENE NAME HERE>
   ScriptFile = <SCRIPT PATH HERE>
   InCampaignStage = 1
   LuaClassName = <THING FOR LUA THAT YOU DONT NEED TO WORRY ABOUT YET>

basically, InCampaignStage. add that to the bottom of your scenes.ini, or make an activities.ini

3POK_PHALE, if you don't want to help me, you don't. I'll not scream in RED anyway.

I don't need the credit, the forum is to share, boy. You don't know what I going to do later, just don't judge me KiD.

Don't listen to PHALE, he's just post grinding.

You don't need a script for the scene to show up on the campaign screen. Like Geti said, add that piece of code he posted (with your necessary changes, of course) to your scene's .ini file. (this is usually scenes.ini, but I don't think that it has to be)

Oh, and for the counting objective you probably will need a Lua script. Some other Lua scenes have timers, check out their code.

Ok, I'll try again, but the most of the times get an error or just it don'ts appears on the map. In the case I can't get it, I will post the codes. ThanxYou :P

Hmm, since it concerns PresetNames, the only thing I see that may be a problem is the activity, scene, and terrain PresetNames: they're all PiloK. Try changing the terrain name to "PiloK Terrain" and so for the activity or something.

Also I'm gonna see if I can get it to load with a null terrain later, and if it doesn't I'll step through the code until I can find something wrong.

does terrain.ini load first in your index?

Yes, but when it's in the bottom doesn't work anyway.

If I erase "IncludeFile = PiloK.rte/Activities.ini" in the index.ini file, the game starts but the scene don't appears in the campaign map.

that means your "load script file" code was in your activities.ini, and It also tells me that you wrote it incorrectly.

and yes, looking back on your first post I see that is the case. Your GAscripted thing should look like this:
Code:
AddActivity = GAScripted
   PresetName = whatevs
   SceneName = whatevs
   ScriptFile = MyMod.rte/whatevsSCRIPT.lua
   LuaClassName = whatevs mission
   InCampaignStage = 1
   TeamCount = 1
   PlayerCount = 1
   TeamOfPlayer1 = 0
   TeamOfPlayer1 = 1


I don't know if that team of stuff is necessary, but it shouldn't hurt to put it in.

I solved the problem taking a template and replacing the original code with my code. :grin:

But now, I have another Question:

Actually my scene is a warpX terrain, and when the game opens it the sprites and the background moves in diferents sense directions. It's a common problem, I know. I'll search for this in the forum, but if you know what I mean and want to save me a time, I'm all ears! :dead:

Here is the .RTE folder. The LUA file doesn't matter at all, it's a copy of the template for now.

Thanx for the effort PALs.
