Hi all!
Which tool must I use to have in the game the little text: "Press F to climb" I don't know if it is exactly "climb" but I hope that you know what I mean. Very often it comes when you want to jump over a fence but he is to high to jump over then the little text appears ;)

Try this:
Put a trigger texture in your map where you want the player to jump over the fence, make it big enough to cover at least 2 players, or however big you want it. Right click and scroll to trigger. Select trigger use_touch. Now keep the trigger selected and press the N key (entity key). Put in

Key: hintstring
Value: Press F to jump fence. (You can change this to fit what you want to say. Also, keep hintstring non-capitalized. It is known to cause problems.)

I tried something else

I looked what tools the used that the player "climb" over a Box (for example). They used the tool "matle over" and it is working

You should use Mantle over or Mantle on textures and then the text will appear.

Only the mantle will make you climb. The trigger_use/use_touch doesn't do anything without a script. Even with a script, you won't be able to climb. Mantle texture is your best bet.

If you're stubborn enough you can always link a player who triggered the trigger_use to i.e. script_origin and move it over the obstacle. So it is possible :P Don't see much point doing this though, so go ahead and use mantle texture instead Cheers

lol For someone like him who is a beginner it seems, no need to make it complicated.

If I am stubborn enough, I will? lol don't you mean not stubborn?

Whatever.

You may be stubborn and not want to do it easy way. Isn't it logical? Yeah, whatever.

That doesn't make any sense. How can I be stubborn? The mantle texture is the easiest way and I suggested too that he or maybe she should do it, so how am I stubborn?


lol w/e :D

Yay! Forum fights!
