I've read the tutorials, and I think I understand it. But where should I put the COG? I don't know what to do with the text message COG, either. Help, anyone? I'm making a Single Player level, by the way. I think it's about time someone started making SP levels.

Good for you. I'm always happy to see a fellow sp level maker.

If you haven't yet, you need to create a project directory. It's just a directory somewhere on your hard drive to put all the files (jed, jkl, tmp, etc) for the level you're making. Put the cogs and any other custom files (mats, 3dos, etc) in there. Then open your project in jed and run the jktree plugging. It will put all the custom files in the right places.

You're ready to start reading the cog tutorials. Don't be intimidated, as far a languages go, cog is easy.

Copy this stuff into your real startup cog:

symbols

message startup

end
######
code

startup:
Print("Whatever");
Return;

end

Inside of Jed's Episode Editor is an option that will create a startup cog for you. You may also want to look at the tutorial I wrote on adding force powers to sp levels. It involves startup cogs too.
