What do you think is the best way to trigger a "secret level" alternate map when you dont beat a level for campaigns ?????????????...


thanks to oz the flag control/ / sector controls scripts work... now is the time to optimize and standardize the triggers for maps triggered when not achieving victory.

I'm not sure what you are asking seeing as you appear to have answered your own question. If you want a loss to always lead to a secret level, then you just never have a dark victory Endgame action. You just keep it light victory or light victory with the failure flag.
