Ending a Dungeon?

Hey guys, I went through and developed a simple dungeon for boredom's sake, and ever part of it that I want is in there. But I need the help of those more experienced than I because I don't know how to end it. Like game mechanic wise, I don't know how to end a dungeon. I know there are cinematics, but how do you trigger those from in game, and are they the only way to end the dungeon?
Anyways, thats my question. If you can help, please comment. If you cant, thank you for reading anyways.

To end stick in a hidden pressure plate and link it to a lua script entity with the following:
function endGame()
completeGame ("mod_assets\cinematics\ending.lua")
end

Then create a file called ending.lua (easy way is to save as from a blank lua file in the assets, just rename it ending), and put in the following:

enableUserInput()
startMusic("assets/samples/music/intro.ogg")

showImage("assets/textures/cinematic/intro/page01.tga")
fadeIn(2)

sleep(1)
setFont("Intro")
textWriter([[ You have passed the ways of the maze of death, your party emerges into the sunlight your trials at an end. ]]) click() fadeOutText(0.5) sleep(1) setFont("IntroTitle") showText("
You have passed the ways of the maze of death,
your party emerges into the sunlight

your trials at an end.
]])

click()
fadeOutText(0.5)

sleep(1)
setFont("IntroTitle")
showText("THE END")
sleep(2)
fadeOutText(1)
fadeOut(4)
fadeOutMusic(3)

Feel free to just paste that. Hope it helps

One question though, how do I create a new asset? And then when I create the asset, how do I add that script as its entity? (that is probably something obvious to you, but I just started working with the editor, my apologies).

Yeah I never used the editor before I started my project, hell didn't even know what lua was, After about a month I had a complete mod ready to go. If you need help I'll direct you to these two sites, should cover everything you need
