Hi everyone! Does anyone know if putting a level key, in the first part of your game, will help unlock your level link? My link is not a locked level, it's just a Sub-Level, but could placing a key help? Or, does anybody have any suggestion on how to improve the link. I've heard to kill the player, or to minimalize the on-screen activity while linking. Any suggestions are much appreciated. Thanks!

I guess your asking for shorter loading time while loading the next level? Level keys don't help I think, but those other tips you say might. Generally if the next level has less thermometer then the loading time is shorter quite obviously.

I have a level where I just connected a battery to my level link, and it works every time. It only takes at most a minute or two.

Oh, you mean manual activation. My link is set to auto with a player sensor activating it. I did it for visual purposes, but might that be why it don't activate for some people? - - - - - - - - - - I guess your asking for shorter loading time while loading the next level?

I mean that it's suppose to activate when a player sensor is triggered, but a lot of times it don't. How can I make sure it gets activated?

I trigger hidden level links using logic. For instance, when the player reaches a certain position I counter set to "1" activates the level link. Works fine every time as far as I know.

Generally if the next level has less thermometer then the loading time is shorter quite obviously. Actually most levels with just a single thermo will load rather quickly. When you really get long load times is with levels that emit and destroy a lot of things because a full thermometer level can have a file size under a megabyte, but I've seen levels surpass 5 megabytes with careful use of emitting.
