Title: Raising objects?
Post by: Killzone on 04 Sep 2002, 07:59:05

Does any one know if it is possible to raise certain objects.
I have a Small sea base with Choppers on it and I was trying to put the "H" object on the pier using the setpos command but it never seems to show up. Why can I elevate some things but not others?

I think the "H" is about the only object that can't be raised.... not too sure why that is ...

Actually... I can make an educated guess at it on second thought..... AI wouldn't be able to , or want to for that matter land ontop of another object ;)

You can raise just about anything else you want though ... I'm fairly sure you're familiar with the setpos command from what you're saying, but I put a few things about it on this post if you wanna check it out anyways ;D

hmmm - because H is a texture it has to lie on the terrain - its designed to wrap itself around the terrain - so no H's anywhere else im afraid.

Couldnt you put a game logic where the H is and put a waypoint over it and put a command to switch off the engine or in the wp make it land where the wp is on the pier, so when it is over the pier trying to move down to the h through the pier it switches off its engine and lands on the pier.
