OK, i am making a map that will have low gravity. When i play the map, i have to make the map low grav myself in consoleby using "sv_gravity 100". All i need to know is how i can change the grav so when the map starts, the grav will already be low? What can i do in hammer to get the desired effect?

Dunno if its still relevant.

In HL1 you had to add an effect over the whole map by using the AAA trigger and setting the entity for lowering the grav.

I assume that HL2 has a similar action required to do this too.

You will need to add the entity to effect everyone upon spawning.

I will not make this yellow because my answer is to incomplete but it will point you toward the right direction.

point_servercommand is something your looking for I think (set it up so when the map spawns it triggers this entity). With it you can have the map put in a command to the console. Be wary though. It tends to get tricky whether you have sv_cheats set to 1 or 0.

Trigger_gravity should still do fine <img src=" SRC="images/smiles/icon_smile.gif">

Well, the trigger_Gravity only works when you walk into it. I need something that sets grav at the beginning of the map...also making any prop low grav also. When shooting a prop through a trigger_gravity, i see no effect.

Omega slayer has your answer. Use a servercommand, and give it an output to command via a logic_auto, and set the parameter to a server gravity value: sv_gravity 100, 600, 80000000000000000, etc.


Also change the texture of the dock. Docks are rarely tile. -Facepunch
