How are level links supposed to work in versus levels? I have one in my versus level and I don't want it to activate until players reach a certain point. So I had it set to a player sensor, but whenever I would test it in play mode, sometimes I would spawn there even though the player sensor definitely hadn't been triggered yet (it basically treated it as another spawn). So then I resorted to emitting the level link when the player sensor is activated, but the level link only works half the time (and when it does work, it takes a while to load the level). Basically it's a real mess right now. Is there something wrong here? I'd really appreciate any suggestions! Also, while I'm here, I was wondering if there's a place in the forums to request testers? Or if anyone would like to volunteer here, that'd be amazing It would be better if I could spectate, but if not then just having someone try it out would be very helpful.

The level link was acting as a spawn? I've never encountered this. If I were to make a system for this I would. Place down some hologram, hit it up with an impact sensor, hook it up to a sequencer, place a battery on the sequencer, attach the output of the battery into the input of the level link. It should work this way. It's usually how I make my level links work. And for the testers, you can as in the 'Find Other Happy Gadders' or the LBP2 'Help!', which is this forum... So, yeah.

Ahh it's not working D: I tried your suggestion and a few different methods including selectors and both player sensors and impact sensors, but every time it treats it as a spawn point... I feel like either I'm making an extremely basic mistake that I'm just not seeing, or it's a bug within my level. The reason I don't think it's the former is because this seems like such basic logic: connect a sensor to the input of the level link and that's it :S Would you mind taking a look sometime? Edit: I've decided to just give players a key instead of using a level link. How do keys work? I set part two to "Sub-level," but it says it won't be visible and players can only get to it through a level link. I want players to be able to see it, but only when they get the key. What settings should I use to achieve this?

What settings should I use to achieve this? If you still want me to look at it, it would be my pleasure to do so. My PSN user ID is: sewo97. A key works by unlocking a visibly locked level only for players who have collected it. If the level is a 'sub-level' they cannot see it so they cannot play it even if they have the key. If its not a 'sub-level' but is locked, players can see it but not play it until they have the key.

Thanks! Yeah I have it set up with a key now (which I'm thinking might be better since no one likes level links lol), but I would still like to have the option to use a level link and figure out what the problem is. I'll message you later today
