Ok - TF entities are hard and you need a good understanding of them (well I do for 1/2 life and DoD) but these are insane!!! Since I'm a bit of a noob when it comes to source - ok total noob - are all the entities this hard??
Here's my TF2 issue:
5 cap points labeled 1-5
each made the exact same way
-same base, rotating entity showing team owner, trigger brush for cap.
None of them work - spcifically:
either team will have to take the cap point closest to them and work across the map - they have to cap all 5 to win - there can be a see-saw effect meaning if you loose it you can cap it back again and vice versa. The hud items don''t show up right, most caps are dead except 1, if you touch the one that's active - the game crashes.
Now I've decompiled other maps to see how it's done and still can't figure it out - the entities also have input/output values that I don't understand at all (is this normal for source mapping?)
I've even gone so far to copy over their caps entities etc to see if it works from map to map but nothing is working - are they referencing outside sources? My map totally done except these cap things - there's no tutorails or help anywhere on the net so I was hoping that you gurus could help a Bug out.
Also, I removed the doors in my map because - sometimes they work sometimes they don't - when they worked - blue team for example - touch one door they all open - change the names - door 1, 2, 3 eg and they stop working.
Any good TF2 mappers here?
