Force push/pull

[Smart_Saber]

Do you all remember in Nar Shadaa, just before you get on the barge to Reelo's base, there's an area with a little red droid fixing something? And if you walk over to the edge, there are little doofangles that you jump onto, then you use force pull to pull it closer to you? If I wanted to do something like that in my map, how would it do it?

 

Many thanks,

Its scripting...... ICARUS scripting .... read the manual....

[Smart_Saber]

Manual?

 

EDIT: Nevermind, found it. Thanks!

[darth_micke]

No problems....always fun to help someone

[idontlikegeorge]

actually, why would that require scripting?

[Emon]

To make it pullable.

[idontlikegeorge]

why, exactly, would that require scripting?

[darth_micke]

Well, do u have any better idea?

[idontlikegeorge]

no, i just want to know why it requires scripting.... you can have a door be pulled open without scripting; admittedly i dont know too mucha bout the functions/keys of rotating objects, but still i think there would be a way to get the effect without scripting

[darth_micke]

Well.... if u find the keys and values let me know.....but I reckon it needs to be scripted

[SithBrakiss]

i have a weird idea,i dunno if it's possible tho....what if instead of having force pull/pull blocks in levels.....you had Force Grip Blocks,so you could move em around at will.

[idontlikegeorge]

that would be cool

 

anyway, as far as the keys, etc. i dont know exactly, cuz i havent messed with func_rotate (im not even sure the crane things are func_rotates!), but you can make a door pullable instead of pushable you know, cake

 

just put the door in the position you want it to be OPENED; then change the direction and lip to compensate; and click the flag start_open; the door will "open" with pull, not push

 

like i said, i dunno if it works that way with rotate,or if the things you are thinking about are rotates at all

[darth_micke]

Uhm well the idea is to make the door fall when u push it....
