Walking through concrete objectives :'-(

Post by **Bjarne BZR** » Wed Feb 19, 2003 1:47 pm

I'm having problems with an objective explosion ( yes, I made a tutorialon that exact subject, so? I'm not omnipotent you know... ( Yeah right

) ).

First: The thing is: I can suddenly walk through the brushes after I made them exploder / exploderchunk / explodersmashed.
In the tutorial map i made, the exploder is solid... And as far as I know I did the same procedure this time...
The only difference is; in the the tutorial I made stuff from scratch, but now I made an exploder out of a number of existing detailed distiller racks:

Second: In the tutorial map all is fine except one thing: If I shoot the panel ( the exploder ) before the explosion, the bullet marks remain floating in thin air after the blast... can this be avoided and still get bullet marks when firing on the undestroyed panel?

PS: The objective itself works like a charm its just the lack of player clipping...[/img]

LOL

Actually, yes... a bit... can't get anything past you can I?

You could spawn or add some clip brushes.

I'd rather not. Because the exploder's ( distiller racks ) are so complex ( around 100 brushes )... I can't see why I can walk through this objective, but not the tutorial one... the only difference I can see is increased brush count...

And besides, if it happens to regular brushes that normally should block, cant it happen to clop brushes too?

Cracked it!!!!!!

Among all these hundreds of brushes were one that was double ( 2 in the exact same place ).
One of these were not a script_object but a detail... somehow it f****d things up... don't understand how... details can't even have key/value pairs? Can they?

There's a detail entity which can have keys and values. However, this entity is bollocks.

Thanx for that jv_map... then the explanation of the error gets simpler: In the #set connecting the objectives were a brush that was not a script_object ( as it should ). This probably confused the exploder initialization process in some strange way... making all the brushes of the #set non-solid.
