Treadmills/Conveyors

[Ol-Gil]

Is there any simple way to create a treadmill or conveyor belt?

 

I tried creating multiple train loops with different start points, but there is a slight delay between trains that causes them to eventually bump out of order.

 

Thoughts?

try grouping them together perhaps?

As in, using the "Connect Entities" function in the Selection menu? That makes them cease to be func_train. This is seriously frustrating.

 

Also, I tried using the Cairn conveyor shaders, but that's only a visual effect

 

Any further thoughts?

[camp3r]

try selecting all the offending brushes then in the ent proprety window add a key and value of

 

group x

 

x being anything you'd like to name it.
