Killing target per round?? Created 17 years ago2007-07-06 13:01:09 UTC by ip

The set up:

(Dripping water effect) Trigger_auto triggers a multi_manager, which then triggers an env_blood.
Then when someone presses a button (thus creating another effect), the button kills the multi_manager for the rest of the round (thus stopping the env_blood).

Now the problem is, I only want the manager to be killed for the rest of 'that' round, but come back the next, and then have the same effect (killed by a button). Is there anyway I can do this/how?
(do I need to kill a different entity/trigger and/or use a different set-up?)

Thanks.

I think I have the same problem because some of the entities not respawns so when if i die (or write kill in the console imitating a new round starts), the sequence can' t be reactivated. So in the example map (http://twhl.co.za/tutorial.php?id=4) after you activated the sequence (elevator up, explosion, falldown,...) you die caused by the last explosion and in the next round you can' t activate the elevator. I am mapping for cs1.6. Is there any way to make these entities respawnable??
Here is another example that not respawns: http://twhl.co.za/tutorial.php?id=37
PLS HELP...
THX...xD

Once you kill an entity, it is removed from the game and cannot return/respawn. You'll have to find another way to achieve the same effect without killing the multimanager, like temporary disable it using a trigger_changetarget or a multisource. I can't tell if either of those work, it must be tested first.

Ok, thank you... thought I'd have to change some stuff around... I'll try it out.

It's pretty simple.
Since you can't use trigger_changetarget on a multi_manager, you'll have to create a trigger_multiple (stashed away somewhere the player won't be able to reach it) for each object you trigger with the multi_manager (multi_manager->trigger_multiple->target). Once a player presses the button, instead of killing the mm, you trigger a bunch of trigger_changetargets, that change the target of each trigger_multiple to nothing.
You'd also have to use another multi_manager named game_playerspawn instead of the trigger_auto, that triggers the multi_manager responsible for the dripping and, if necessary, another bunch of trigger_changetargets to set the targets of the trigger_multiples back to what they have to be.

I found the way how to make the changetarget process repeatable...
