okay.. i wanna make a corridoor with lots of turrets in, and if you
walk through one a little red laser beam the turrets pop up and attack
you (like in half life single player when your trying to get topside)

and i also need to know how to disable them, either by switch, or any
possible way (e.g when they killed the person who set them off they go
back in, etc)

for more details please c my post on the SC forums...

Check out the monster_turret entity (more info here
http://collective.valve-erc.com/index.php?ent=monster_turret). The
flags tab has a flag called Start Inactive, check that flag.

Set up an env_beam where you want the laser to be. Cover the beam with a trigger_multiple and have it trigger the monster.

Experiment a bit in case you don't understand that.

okay so that triggers them up, problem being once triggered they will
stay up and kill other ppl - is there a way i can setup a switch b4 the
corridoor to turn em off?

if doin the trigger again (breaking the laser) turns em off, i need
another way - cus that way u cud jus break one laser, and break another
n they go back in, and since this is for agility/controll training you
can see why that would be pointless :smile:

That won't be a problem unless you're making a multiplayer training
map. In that case what you suggested (one trigger to switch off, one to
switch on) seems to be the best option.

Use a
trigger_relay
to force an entity into a specific state. The trigger_multiple should
target the trigger_relay, which should set the entity to the state you
want it (on/off).

A normal trigger_multiple won't work since it always toggles the state, and does not set it to a particular value.

yeah its multiplayer training. im not sure how to program multimanagers
and relays and stuff... i only know how to use relays to un/lock doors.

That's why I said: experiment and learn.
