Hey, if you have played killbox for HL1 DM, you know how fun it is. I just made an identical killbox for HL2 DM with some added source engine jazz. The gameplay so far is exactly the same and is a complete replica. One thing is stumping me. The damn elevators!!! I just need simple elevators to when you stand on them they go up to a point, wait, and go back down to the starting point. I have tried everything and nothing is working. Could someone tell me how or point me in a direction?

Here is what I have done:

Made 2 path_corner entities. One at possition #1 and one at possition #2.
Made the object for my elevator and attached func_tracktrain to it
In the func_tracktrain I selected possition #2 as first stop target (I have tried changing that to 1 but it didnt work)

Thats it. Please help!

P.S. Anyone had any luck creating spawn points for HL2 DM?

Your such a killbox Tracer. I'm going to killbox your mother. Look at those killboxers over there.

Hmmm doesn't really work to well for me Tracer.

You guys are real helpful . I submitted v1 to the maps section. Check it out. But I still need help on elevators.

I should think "shift+delete" would be a bit more efficient, if equally effective.

I was bored, so here is an example map showing how to make a lift with either a func_door or a func_movelinear. The func_door solution is less complex, but the func_movelinear seems somewhat less problematic. your choice.

Edit:

With both of these solutions, I end up with a sort of stutter where it seems like the lift vibrates when I am on it. This may simply be due to the fact that I am running at less than the minimum system requirements for HL2, but I don't know. I'd appreciate notification should anyone else experiences the same problem.
