Is there anyway to reduce the shaking when a player rides on suface? trying to make a rotating platform that the player rides on. I get it to rotate of course, but it shakes the player violently.

I will give you some more info here. I am using firemanpaul's rotate script. Code: main() { rotate_obj = getentarray("rotate","targetname"); if(isdefined(rotate_obj)) { for(i=0;i<rotate_obj.size;i++) { rotate_obj[i] thread ra_rotate(); } } } ra_rotate() { if (!isdefined(self.speed)) self.speed = 10; if (!isdefined(self.script_noteworthy)) self.script_noteworthy = "x"; while(true) { // rotateYaw(float rot, float time, <float acceleration_time>, <float deceleration_time>); if (self.script_noteworthy == "z") self rotateYaw(360,self.speed); else if (self.script_noteworthy == "x") self rotateRoll(360,self.speed); else if (self.script_noteworthy == "y") self rotatePitch(360,self.speed); wait ((self.speed)-0.1); // removes the slight hesitation that waittill("rotatedone"); gives. // self waittill("rotatedone"); } }

I really doubt the shaking is a result of the script. The brushes move with smoothness. I have a feeling its the game engine doing its best to resolve the differences in the movement you make at the keyboard and the movement of being on the moving brush on a circular path. You dont see as much of this when on moving platforms that move in a straight line. My gut tells me you are stuck with it.

might try script_origin, as tag_player to your brush that you stand on target auto1, make them enter it using a trigger "trigger_use, targetname, yourname,target auto1 your trigger would have to be a rotation script brush as well or something like that ....maybe?

What's funny though, the same rotate script is used in the cod1 version. I just unpacked the gsc from cod 1 and they are the same except for a few modifications. i am going to play with a bit. I'll get back to ya if I find something.
