teleport bump

I'm trying to make an endless, seamless hallway, and I've got it down to only one thing, every time the player teleports, he teleports a unit or two above the floor, then falls down. So much for a seamless transition.

I need to get rid of this bump, can you guys help?

build a couple of stairs into the hallway, so that there's meant to be a bump?

I'll wait on marking that as correct, but that may have to suffice. pondering emoticon

Make sure your info_teleport destination is touching, but not overlapping, the floor (i.e. it should not be a tile above the floor). I just built something similar in a map and my transition is completely smooth. (I also have my trigger_teleport touching the floor, although I doubt that makes a difference).

Trying it now...does this work with landmarks?

I tried your method, but then I ended up beneath the map. So I started making new destination entities, both info_teleport_destinations, and info_targets. What worked in the end was placing info targets at the relative center of the trigger_teleports, the weird thing is that that was what I was doing before. wtf?

I'm going to throw this one up for Hammer randomness.

That's odd, I'm glad you got it to work. I've never bothered using the info_targets; I only use the info_teleport_destinations. I position them so that the feet (they look just like an info_playerstart) are resting directly on top of my floor brush (you need to have hammer set up so that you can see the 3D entity models). I've never had any problems this way. If you ended up in the void then I suspect your info_teleport_destination was actually embedded in the floor brush.

Nope, I didn't make that mistake, and it wasn't because their origins were in the void or embedded in a brush either.
