func_monsterclip: Snarks will not obey! Created 18 years ago2006-02-28 04:47:27 UTC by rowleybob

Using a monstermaker, with the "MonsterClip" flag checked.

I have func_mosterclip brushes--textured with AAATRIGGER--surrounding a shallow hole, intersecting the bottom brushes, and far too high for a snark to jump over.

However, they pass out of the hole seemingly unimpeded!

Help me Obi-Wan Kenobi, you're my only hope

Hmm... and other monsters? Do they pass or not? I'm guessing it could be a snark anomality, since they're both enemies and 'ammo', as a matter of speaking...

Maybe they can go through be cause they are also a Player weapon?
I mean, like the gun, it needs to go through to kill the enemy.
So it allows the snark to pass through so it can kill the enemy.

I'd agree that snarks are a weapon. Maybe somthing was overlooked in their (very basic) AI. They can't seek you out around corners for example unless they have a clear line of sight. Maybe clipping and scripting doesn't apply to them. After all they only live for a few moments before bursting into a jittering puss cloud of excitement anyway.

Good point! I wasn't looking at them as weapons, so it makes sense they behave differently

did u try an invisible func_wall?
or do u want to shoot at them too..
in that case make it like 1 unit thick

Umm... I don't think making it 1 unit thick would make a difference.

Wouldn't work for me 'cause I don't want it to restrict the player, just the snarkies.

@srry, cant you shoot through material 1 unit thick?
that was my thought on that.
@rowleybob, Oh
