Ok guys and gals....im wondering if it is possible to push someone at another angle than up....i have used push triggers before to get up on a ledge or over a wall but is it possible to say push someone backwards or forwards...left or right basically...or upwards at an angle instead of straight up?......

ok i want to make sure im reading this right


u r saying that if i make a box and give it a targetname of pusharea then a setsize that i will be able to push a player in any direction within that set box?....being it straight up sideways or diagonally?

and if i dont want to have to be touching or anything within the box just do not spawn anything in there and it will work all the time??

i thinks that what i read

Direction: the way you're looking. But if you decide you don't want "push-specific" area, do not make such boxes, in that case you will be able to push players everywhere in the map. The boxes are only to restrict players from pushing each other where it's not needed (= open spaces).

The script'll automatically check for that targetname, if it finds one, it'll switch to the restriction mode (= only if touching or within the boxes, pushing is possible) and if it finds none, it'll switch to open mode (= push anywhere at any time.)

Why don't you just use a trigger_multiple (or trigger_multipleall) and give your players some velocity?
