I am making a 360 map. I have two round rotating floors that work fine but when I try to place any brushes or models or prefabs on the floor they dont move with the rotation of the floor. the floor rotates but the brushes or models stay where I place them how can I get them to move with the rotating floor.

Give the floor a targetname.

Give all the models a targetname.

Find the floor targetname via code; find a model targetname via code.

Either link or attach the model to the floor with either Linkto() or attach().

the floor and the axis the floor rotates on has a targetname of rotate. do I give the models and or brushes a key and value key: attach or linkto
value: rotate

is that what you are talking about?

Yeah, basically, but I dont think Radiant has a key value for attach, so try linkto.

You can possibly make it all a brushmodel, then apply the rotational script to it and it would all move as one.

I'll try both

tried bothways no luck there has got to be a way to do this as I remember a 360 map from cod1 and was a cool map.

select everything (including the floor) then "right click" ungroup entity.
Then select everything you want to rotate with the floor
and create script_brushmodel.
Give them a targetname of rotate.
And it should work.

1 problem tho, if you walk up towards one of the brushes which are spinning your sight will get messed up.

Ow btw if you have any models on that floor,
which you want to rotate with the floor give them a script_origin at the center of the floor and connect it to them then make that a script_model.

I will try that also thanks Grim

Hogan,

Sounds you want to remake the spinX map of CoDUO.
Our former clanleader made one allready for CoD4, called usl_quadx and it works fine.

If you need any more info on how to make it you have to go to codutility and look for gunner1, he made it.
His name used to be Thompson Gunner before.
The quadx map is also downloadeble from there.
