Set Up Dependencies Between Stages
Creating Stage Requirements
Make certain stages only unlock after players complete other stages, building a logical progression path.
Steps:
1. Open /pstages editor
2. Select the stage you want to add requirements to
3. In the dependencies section, choose which stages must be completed first
4. You can require one stage, multiple stages, or create complex chains
5. Save your configuration
How Dependencies Work
When a stage has dependencies, players cannot unlock it until all required stages are completed. This creates:
- Linear progressions – Stage B requires Stage A, Stage C requires Stage B
- Branching paths – Stage D requires either Stage B or Stage C
- Gated content – Multiple stages must be completed before accessing advanced areas
The progression map visually shows these connections, helping players understand what they need to do next. Dependencies are enforced server-side, ensuring no player can skip ahead on multiplayer servers.
