I was making some booby traps and one of them needs to hit the player and take all 100% of the players damage. Is there a way to do this from the Entity window? I read somewhere that if the brushmodel is moving fast enough, it "may" take a players damage... not sure if thats true or not. I also have a second question... I had made some working garage doors but when the door opens fully at a 90 degree angle, if I get on top of the garage door, my feet stick through the door and I can't walk, it feels like I'm floating/gliding, and I can't jump or do anything. How do I make a player able to walk on an already moved Brushmodel? Could it be because the brushmodel is too thin? I believe the Garage door/brushmodel is 2 units thick at .5. I also tried to add the Player Clip as part of the garage door, one unit thicker on both sides and converting it to a brushmodel so it moves with the door, but it didn't work. It didn't allow a player to walk on the garagedoor after it was opened. Any Ideas?

Is your booby trap scripted? if so post that script, Im sure some damage can be added... Your door may be too thin (2 @ .5 = 1 unit )..& the clip should of helped if it moved to the same place as the door?? I would use the metal or wood clip , depending on the material of the door..

no, I haven't scripted it yet, but hang on I'll do it quick. (booby trap) I guess I can make the Garage door thicker and try that. You know, I'm not 100% on which clips do what, they are a little confusing, and I haven't yet found anything that explains what each one does in its entirety. I'll look into the clips and do some testing with those. Yeah its weird cause I have many scripted brushmodels and those have no trouble at all, I wonder if it has something to do with how its rotating. Its doing a rotateto. Another weird thing about the garage door is where the hinge is (origin) you know, it plays the sound 'there' of the door opening/closing, well, elsewhere in the house there are other doors with their origins as well. When I go open the garage door, then run over to any other door in the house, instead of playing the door open sound, I hear the garage door opening for my other doors in the house from the door hinges/origins. My garage door opening/closing sound is 12 seconds long, and I'm sure thats the reason, but do you know why it takes over other origins near it if they are used while the garage door opening/closing sound is playing? Even my sliding doors don't have origins, and they too make the sound of the garage door if I open them, while the garage door is still opening 20 yards away...

it doesnt matter how you rotate the doors or how thick they are, if they rotate up and someone is on top if it, they will get stuck, no matter what clips you use theres probably a problem with your scripts or the sound that you used that is causing the door to play the wrong sound i had that problem before where it would play the last sound that was played (like a footstep or an explosion) instead of the sound it should play oh and yes, you can set brushmodels to hurt players edited on Apr. 22, 2008 12:19 pm by .KiLL3R.

Well, Killer, it only happens WHILE another sound is playing, and since my garage door sound is 12 seconds long, if I do/open/close any other doors during that 12 seconds that's when it happens. It plays the garage door at full volume at a door upstairs or elsewhere that I'm messing with. Otherwise the scripts are unique. So you saying that there is no way to fix this problem about standing on a brushmodel using Rotateto or Rotateyaw? Grrrr! Here is that booby trap script... Code: main() { thread metal_blade(); } metal_blade() { bladetrigger = getentarray("metal_blade_trig","targetname"); for(i=0;i<bladetrigger.size;i++) { bladetrigger [i] thread blade_think(); } } blade_think() { self.blademoving = false; self.bladeclosed = true; self.blademodel = getent(self.target, "targetname"); while (1) { self waittill("trigger"); if(!self.blademoving) self thread blade_move(); } } blade_move() { self.blademoving = true; if(self.bladeclosed) { self.blademodel playsound ("blade_slice"); self.blademodel rotateyaw(-180, 1, 0.5, 0.5); self.blademodel waittill("rotatedone"); self.bladeclosed = false; } else { self.blademodel playsound ("blade_slice"); self.blademodel rotateyaw(180, 1, 0.5, 0.5); self.blademodel waittill("rotatedone"); self.bladeclosed = true; } self.blademoving = false; }

yeah, it should work but, how can the blade/brushmodel take a players damage as it hits the player... does it have to be scripted or done through the entity window using "dmg". How can I hurt the player by using this booby trap... ?

easiest way would be this: i think it should work, i tried it ages ago so im not sure Code:main() { thread metal_blade(); } metal_blade() { bladetrigger = getentarray("metal_blade_trig","targetname"); for(i=0;i<bladetrigger.size;i++) bladetrigger[i] thread blade_think(); } blade_think() { self.blademoving = false; self.bladeclosed = true; self.blademodel = getent(self.target, "targetname"); while (1) { self waittill("trigger"); if(!self.blademoving) self thread blade_move(); } } blade_move() { self thread kill_players(); self.blademoving = true; if(self.bladeclosed) { self.blademodel playsound ("blade_slice"); self.blademodel rotateyaw(-180, 1, 0.5, 0.5); self.blademodel waittill("rotatedone"); self.bladeclosed = false; } else { self.blademodel playsound ("blade_slice"); self.blademodel rotateyaw(180, 1, 0.5, 0.5); self.blademodel waittill("rotatedone"); self.bladeclosed = true; } self.blademoving = false; } kill_players() { self endon("rotatedone"); while(1) { players = getentarray("player","classname"); for(i=0;i<players.size;i++) { if(players[i].sessionstate != "playing") continue; if(players[i] isTouching(self)) players[i] suicide(); } wait 0.05; } }

Interesting, I'll give it a try later today, the map is compiling right now and after that I'll test it. I'll let you know if it works or not. Thanks to the both of you for helping, much appreciated.
