teleporting func_train Created 20 years ago2004-06-17 13:20:57 UTC by niellennium

Hi folks -
Is it possible to "teleport" a func_train entity between, say, path_corners ? I want a train entity to start in one room of my map, and then suddenly appear in another room. Then in the next room, it will again get triggered to follow a path_corner layout. I'm using Spirit, and I juss love it, maybe Spirit has some weird Locus/scripted_trainsequence that could be used for this....?? :

well "Move to: Instantaneously" would work, that doesnt work with brushes though.

Maybe putting the speed between 2 pathcorners to 999999 would do the trick?

No, you can set a flag on the path_corner that the func_train has to teleport to. It's the 'Teleporter' flag. Instead of moving to it it will instantaneously appear at that path_corner.

Nope - that sometimes kills the player and or makes the train go and leaves the player

The path_corner 'teleporter' flag works exactly as Captain P predicted. I wouldn't know if there might be some problem regarding the 'player death/not teleporting' remark, but seen that my 'train' isn't actually carrying any personel, it doesn't really matter. Thanx dudes
