Is it possible to move triggers (using scripting)?

Or is there a way of making scripted objects (e.g platforms) hurting the player when they get in the way of its movement?

Thanks in advance :)

looking for an elevator fix are we?

havent come up with a way yet that i know of...

you can create triggers at multiple locations and turn them on and off relative to the position of your entity

as an idea for you...heh heh

Not exactly a elevator fix, but same sorta thing ;)

How about this idea, not sure how to script it as i only know basics but this is how it would work...

Have an triggerhurt covering the entire movement of the object, but it is only triggered when player touches the object?

e.g

A wall moving left and right from position 1 to 100, and having a trigger hurt stretched from 1 to 100. (so the wall is moving left and right inside the triggerhurt (which is currently inactive).

Then if/when the player touches the moving wall the trigger becomes active?

If thats possible could someone explain how ;)
thanks

I got it working :)

Main ()
{
maps\mp\_load::main();
thread wall_move();
thread wall_hurt();
}

wall_move()
{
wall = getent ("wall","targetname");
trig = getent ("wall_trig","targetname");

while (1)
{
trig waittill ("trigger");
// Wall movements here
}
}

wall_hurt()
{
wall_hurt = getent ("wall_hurt","targetname");
wall = getent ("wall","targetname");

while (1)
{
wall_hurt waittill ("trigger",user);

if (user istouching(wall))
{
user suicide();
}
}
}

nice - almost too simple

i can think of a use for it already

Exactly.. very nice and simple..

Could you write this down with some pictures and make it into a tuturoal maybe?

Useful For Making Debris That Hurts The Player. Walls Falling On Them n Such.
I Would Think.

Exactly...

Or for door blocking players..

This doesnt seem to work at every event.

The script says when "touching". Touching is only if you are inside the object. So, a second idea (not tested... yet) was to put a nodraw square around the object (1/2 units thick) and making it non-coliding then making it all a script-brushmodel.

I will make a tutorial once I have tested it fully :)

Any headway on the tut for this, all I seem to be able to do is die as soon as I touch the trigger.
