name a trigger volume, name it bsp<source>,<destination>
eg, bsp0,1
the game is setup to automatically handle it from there.

LOL, this has always been my question, could you give me the full script please, an example: let's say I'm in the first structure and I want to switch to the second structure, what is the script that does the job

Thats it; the game handles it by itself just based off the name. Just name the trigger volume like that, and it'll do it. And my example is exactly that; The counting starts at 0, so bsp0,1 will change from the first BSP to the second. If you want to be able to walk backwards and have it change back, you'd need a bsp1,0 further back from the bsp0,1

Thanks for all your help guys!

i have two more questions, but i'm posting them here so i don't have to spam threads.

1. whenever i use a BSP from the original campaign, the map/yelo compiles fine but when i load it up all that i get is a camera staring off at the skybox, sometimes with part of the bsp in view. i can load of flycam and fly around, but it seems like everything is frozen in time. example: dead bipeds are kinda floating in midair, partway through their death animation. weapons are also floating over their spawn point. wth?

2. how would i go about doing something similar to this?

i have a basic idea, but i want to know for sure.

and yes, i love halo 4.
