moving model

At0miC · Post by **At0miC** » Fri Jul 16, 2004 11:27 am

How can I move a model like this:

A tree model is at piont A must move to point B, and if the model is at point B it must start again at point A, and then moving to point b again, all the time.

It sounds silly, but I nee this for my map lol

Anyone who can help me?

Thnx

Make a script object into the tree (model static/tree.tik, thats not it but...) and targetname it $tree

Then make a waypoint at point A, $wayA, and one at B, $wayB

Code: Select all


level.movingtree=1

treeloop:

while(level.movingtree==1)
{
$tree moveto $wayA
$tree waittill movedone
wait 1
$tree moveto $wayB
$tree waittill movedone
wait 1
goto treeloop
}

end

I think that will work. You can always change level.movingtree to 0 to stop the loop.

level.movingtree 1 is also the speed I guess? so if I do level.movingtree 2 it will go faster right?

Okay the tree doesn't move yet

I'm sorry I forgot a bit.

$tree moveto $wayA //sets place
$tree time 5 //time it takes to move
$tree move //GO!

, so how would the script look like now?

Something like this?? (I suck it scripting)

Code: Select all

level.movingtree=1 

treeloop: 

while(level.movingtree==1) 
{ 
$tree moveto $wayA 
$tree move
$tree waittill movedone 
wait 1 
$tree moveto $wayB 
$tree time 5
$tree move
$tree waittill movedone 
wait 1 
goto treeloop 
} 

end

Thnx anyway

level.movingtree=1

treeloop:

while(level.movingtree==1)
{
$tree moveto $wayA
$tree time 5
$tree move
$tree waittill movedone
wait 1
$tree moveto $wayB
$tree time 5
$tree move
$tree waittill movedone
wait 1
goto treeloop
}

end

Just forgot that one thing. Go ahead and try it, won't hurt anything...

hihi almost

, anyway thnx again

but

I putted the script in the *.scr file,
In the editor, I gaved the tree: $tree as targetname, putted at point A a waypoint with the targetname $wayA, and at point B a waypoint with the targetname $wayB.

But It still doesnt work

Or did I forgot to target the tree to $wayA and taget $wayA to $wayB

or was it target $tree to $wayB? hehe

Or what else did I wrong again LOL

thnx
