The Crane

[Ocyris]

Well, I spent most of yesterday and part of today just working with the crane and I’ve gotten some of it work, but here are the issues I still have:

• Magnet falling through world when dropped
• Magnet destroying physic entity before pick up (except the buggy)
• Exiting the crane at the top of the map

If anybody's got an idea of how to fix it I've attached what I’ve done so far below. I appreciate any input you guys have now fixes.

I would like to see an answer as well.

Nice work on the crain...i could not even get that far...

ok, i messed with it some and in the magnet properties under the flags, turn off everything but "suck on touch" that will let you pick up everything without it disappearting. otherwise im am still trying to figure out those other 2.

Ok, If you turn off the coast jeep hack it doesn't fall through the world so the only thing left is the top of the map thing. which only seems to happen the first time i exit the crane. so it's looking good, next the barrel cannon. anybody know how that guy spawned flaming barrels for the buggy barrel launcher?

Funny...i am still passing through the world. Did you change anything else since you posted your map?

 

[Ocyris]

I turned off "suck on touch" the jeep hack and i cleared the parent on the magnet. Now all that's left is the exit problem.

 

[kefka296]

ah, it was the parent that was making it go through...i see. yea i have no idea about the exit prob.

maybe a target_info tied to it somehow may spawn the player back out, like a portal?

just a random idea from an old HL1 mapper
