Basically what i want to do is for example to move model on Cod4 MP map from the bottom corner of the room, or somewhere else, to the upper corner of the room in a straight line, like shown in the picture.



It doesn't have to have origin, i placed it only for this example, it can also be a script with XYZ coordinates, i just don't know how to do it!
moveX, moveY and moveZ just doesn't do it, i want it to go straight!

Is it possible?
Thank you!

MoveTo( point, time, acceleration time, deceleration time)

1 : point- The point to move the entity to
2 : time- The time to move the entity in seconds
3 : acceleration time- The time spent accelerating
4 : deceleration time- The time spent decelerating

Thanks for this, but now i'm having an other problem!

I made that model (script_model), made the script with (moveTo)
and it doesn't work!
So i tried with linking a script_brushmodel to it, still nothing, tried to move it to an origin using target, nothing, tried using co-ordinates, nothing, then i started thinking that the script is not good, so i tried with (iprintln) and i get the message only when i step on the trigger!
After everything i tried, i placed insted of moveTo, moveZ, and the model is moving, i get all the messages!

Can someone tell me why it's not working please?

Here is the script i made!

move_model()
{
ghost_mo = getent ("gh_mod","targetname"); //ghost model
trig = getent ("gh_trig","targetname"); //trigger

trig waittill ("trigger");
iprintlnbold("Trigger triggered");
ghost_mo moveto ((88, 392, 184), 1, 2, 3);
ghost_mo waittill ("movedone");
iprintln("model moveto finished");
}

try this:
in your map:
create a script origin at the location you want the model to move to
select your model - then the origin and press ctrl-k to link them (order is important)

move_model()
{
level.ghost_speed = 2;

ghost_mo = getent ("gh_mod","targetname"); //ghost model
temp = getent (ghost_mo.target,"targetname"); // where its going
ghost_mo.dest = temp.origin;
ghost_mo.start = ghost_mo.origin;

trig = getent ("gh_trig","targetname"); //trigger

trig waittill ("trigger");
iprintlnbold("Trigger triggered");
self moveto (self.dest, level.ghost_speed, 0.1,0.1);

wait level.ghost_speed;
iprintln("model moveto finished");
}

you can do other things like show and hide the model until the trigger happens and once the move is done...
hope this helps

ghost_mo moveto ((88, 392, 184), 1, 2, 3);

Total movetime must be more or equal to accerelation time plus deceleration time.

So either
ghost_mo moveto ((88, 392, 184), 5, 2, 3);
OR
ghost_mo moveto ((88, 392, 184), 1);

Also with Stryders method instead of ctrl+k you must press W as first key combination works only in vCoD and UO.

I'm not new to mapping, i just don't understand why everything is working fine, only (moveto) doesn't!
StrYdeR, i know your script works fine for sure when i see it, but it doesn't work for me, and i don't know why!
I even tried it with different models, on a different map and still nothing, only thing i get in game is the message "Trigger triggered" when i step on the trigger! After that nothing happends!
And i know how to hide and show the model, that's easy!

Model is script_model
trigger is trigger_multiple
origin is up, and it's welded in a good order!
I have 3 more ghost models on map, but they are just moving straight, and they work fine, but this is driving me crazy!

StrYdeR, your script is working, but it doesn't move the model!
I put also ghost_mo hide(); at the end to see if he will hide it, and i get the message ("model moveto finished) and it hides him, but the model stays where it was!

self moveto (self.dest, level.ghost_speed, 0.1,0.1);

should be

ghost_mo moveto (ghost_mo.dest, level.ghost_speed, 0.1,0.1);

Try a different model?

Don't know what model you're using, whether it is an import or something, but it might have bones still in it, which may stop it from being moved?
