Quanon Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 Hey , I found out how doors worked , but I need elevator , I've tried a Tutorial but it didn't really help me out .( I just got a crazy platform crushing me to death . SO I'll ask it to experts here How do you make a platform move up and down the way I want it . Thankx for the help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvilJedi Posted June 4, 2006 Share Posted June 4, 2006 You could use a func_plat, but I don't like those too much. Instead, use a func_door and change the lip and angle. You'll want to do the following to find the value for the lip: how high you want it - height of the elevator, then take the opposite (negative) of that. Example: Func_door is 8 units high. You want the elevator to go 800 units up. 800-8 = 792. So you would have this: key: lip, Value:-792 Then make the angle -1 (for up) and put it on the bottom of where you want it to be. I don't remember what down is, but I think it's =2 or 0. Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

{NJO}*Dark Posted June 4, 2006 Share Posted June 4, 2006 with a func_plat you have to make it in the open stage, and then work out all of the heights. Much easier with a func_door because you have more controls over it, can put it into a team with another part etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
