Sprinkler System Created 19 years ago2005-04-11 20:11:05 UTC by Kissker

OK how can I make a sprinkler system that starts off, but can have a button activate it and its sound, and also be turned off again, using the Rain stuff? possible?

I'm guessing now, but maybe env_renders to toggle the rain sprites???

I'm pretty sure you can just trigger sprites to turn them on and off ? in fact, I remember having done so in the past. If you'd be using animated or scrolling textures, use them on func_illusionaries and use env_renders on them.

Wow that's neat...didn't know you could toggle teh sprites on/off!

iam rather confused, is there a tutorial with something related? (begining mapper*)

I think you should just practise what you know, and read all our Beginner and Intermediate tutorials (even if you don't immediately understand everything). Then, the Entity Guide might be very useful.

ah but see practicin only what i know never gets me any better. must think outside the inpenetratable rubber box of goo.

That's why I said to read all the tutorials.

lol ive read i think everyone that pertains to my needs, i dont need an elevator , or land mines etc, or ropes water/waterfalls all that, but i read almost if not all the other ones, textlighting has me baffled, i cant get my textures to light up the room.... and id like them to be turn on/off too. sprinkler system.. i cant get the normal Rain function to work.. so... iama re re re read the "rain" one... i understand MMs now! lol and env_shooters and such (made my own pop machine, and i must say iam rather proud of my non hollow box like the tut said to do)

Just read them all, you'll pick up useful stuff. Trust me.

well i will eventually, but iam on a very strict time limit for this project..then i just have to move on.. maybe never to return to it, I dont want my first map concept to just be scrapped.
