get map name in zscript?

[ramon.dexter]

Okay, another one. I want to modify the strife popups, use one of the popups that is obsolete in my mod to display, let's say, a world map.
Now, I know how to draw images on statusbar in zscript, that's not the case.
The case is: How do I get a map name in zscript? I found out that there is a native readonly String MapName. How do I access it in statusbar?

You could try using level.MapName, though I'm unsure if that would work.
But things like levelnum and total/killed_monsters work, so I would think level.MapName works too.

Ok, will try. Thanks again.

edit: Little clarification for those who are interested:

level.MapName returns the name of the map (for example: E1M1, MAP01, and so on).

level.FormatMapName(2) (number is a color number, 2 is white) returns name defined in mapinfo here:

Code: Select all

map MAP1001 lookup MAP1001_NAME
{
	skybox = Sky4
	//sky1 = sky5
	cluster = 1
	music = 08DSRT1
	outsidefogdensity = 128
	skyfog = 255
	lightmode = 2
	StrifeFallingDamage
	MonsterFallingDamage
	AllowJump
	AllowCrouch
	AllowFreelook
}

So, for this case, level.FormatMapName() returns the MAP1001_NAME (string, defined in language), which is, in this case, "Ranger base".

Hope this helps somebody.
