I think the console animation is longer than one second? Or is it? Try adding wait(enough milliseconds) after the do ( "type" ); in your script. If memory serves, I once tried something like that. Although I have no memory if it worked or...  [Read More]

Originally posted by Leslie Judge Do you really need to loop the script? I mean you can set the NPC to play a typing animation and ask it to repeat it endlessly (set ANIM_HOLDTIME_BOTH to -1) so your script has to run only once. Or something... :D...  [Read More]

Hmm. Remember also that setting an animation to a character won't take any time at all. So, you must have some kind of delay in your loop, to wait for the animation to finish, before it's launched anew....  [Read More]

1) If memory serves, a triggered door behaves like that. So you need a trigger_multiple around the door, targeted to the door. The door needs... um... wait key, to know how long to stay open (or delay key, I don't remember). The trigger also need a w...  [Read More]

So, basically it's a normal door that is normally usable to the player, and he can also crush the rancor with it? Well, let's see. The way I would most probably try to do it, if the simplest way you already tried is no good, would be to make the doo...  [Read More]

I have come to a conclusion that the script command SET_ADJUST_AREA_PORTALS does not work if you are just rotating an entity (which is most likely a func_static). In more technical terms, I think you must move the entity's origin for the command to...  [Read More]

Yeah, the very uniform light (or no light?) and the all-light-gray textures make it even harder to spot any details. I guess some level of ambient light would be in order is space (I'm not talking about realism, though) but some shadows and such woul...  [Read More]

Why don't you use: set ( /*@SET_TYPES*/ "SET_DYAW", ###.### ); command in your script? I guess if you just don't want to make the NPC look at some direction (his head) but to actually turn him to face that direction, this is your command....  [Read More]
