tanktrain

Im using tank train and I have no problems getting it to move. The
problem is i want to emulate walking ontop of a players head like in cs
1.6. Ive tried using push but doesnt work when u duck u just sit there.
To explain better when u stand on a tanktrain u just stand there and
move with it, but when ur on a person the person can walk from
underneath u and u can fall fromt heir head. So how would I be able to
emulate this well?

bump Id really liek to have any type of discussion on this

First off, you don't need a bump until a day or two. Your post is not forgotten, the people who have come here have
A)Not been able to read your post

or

B)Can figure out each individual word but don't have a clue what they all mean when combined

I'd suggest refraising it until it is comprehensible. When what you write is readable, it tends to lend itself to a wider array of suggestions.

As far as I understand what you're saying, you want to make a moveable
object (do you mean a func_tracktrain? a func_tanktrain is something
slightly different) so that you can stand on top of it, but when it
moves you slide off it and fall down.

I haven't tried it, but perhaps you could make the train brush with a
slippery texture on the top surface. It depends on how HL2 calculates
player-object friction for moving objects, and it might not be very
realistic for performance reasons.

Yea thats what I wanted. I just thought to use a slippery texture today
I'm going to give this a try today just need to find the textures ill
post my results on that 1

EDIT:

THe slippery texture did not work. Ive tried both func_tracktrain and
func_tanktrain both ending witht he same results. I tried using the
func_conveyor but to gain an equilibrium with the conveyor and urself
(make it so that when ur running u just say in the exact same spot) it
flings u right of when u try to get onw hen its moving. The other
problem is that when I lower the conveyor when u intially get on it
pushes u back very quickly but if u remain on the platform then its
allows u to move up.

Of course ne ideas are welcomed :smile:

you could try and make a func_train track with a trigger_push above it. All you have to do is find the right push speed.

Run into similar problems, the initial force applied to u is greater
when it starts and several moments later its not... Im thinking about
perhaps moving a model around the map.. what characters can I import
into cs and what should I use to move it around?

Edit:

When I started I didnt think this would be all that hard to achieve im
thinking that i might just make it so i have a semi strong conveyer put
a block in front of the player so they can fly off the front. (Me
and my friend like doing that head walkign thing that u could see if
u've seen pubmasters) I just wanted to make some type of practice map
for that.
