Giving the Levi a little push

I will have to check with the store and see if they have that much paper to put the thing in

If I figure this out...ALL TCP will get one for Easter.

OK, I have the answer. The colision is based on a simple box. The "flaps" that come out, have no collision. The simply made collision for them. HEHE!!!

I was wrong about the levi's collision. They must have done somethingelse to get it attached to the plane. I even had the levi floating in the air (on its own) and the put the plane under it. I could not get it to move. There is something that I am not seeing or doing right. Unless you can change the physics of the levi, to make it more "light", I have no idea how to do it.

well im a total script noob, though i like some tooling (vbs)
but i dont really see the point of giving those things such as the levi a certain weight, it seems to be alot easier to put a line somewhere something like
raptor can lift levi = false (or whatever)
cus it can lift a player just like the manta

if this would be the case it should be possible to drop a vehicle on a person and the person wont die (wud be fun to see a lifted levi on someones head that dodges around...with the levi still planted on his head)

I don't know whether you ever played Unreal 1, but a similar thing happens occasionally when a fragged body lands on someone's head; you see the person running around wearing the corpse like a hat

lmao, but nope...Unreal 1 is like "is that a pizza" for me

just started gaming when 2004 came out

I believe I have seen the option for making something flyable. Good point and I will check it out tonight. Thanks for the input.[/u]

How about running around with levi's on our heads!
But they dont need to be dead.
Or make Flying corpses.
Kill someone jump onto their carcass
and fly to the next node maybe!?:P

I think there is a property called 'mass' controlling the weight of a vehicle.
Maybe you could try lowering this???

yeh giving things a weight could be easier lol

this would mean the levi and other vehicles have a weight and power
example: the manta has enough power to lift the weight of a player.

this way you could either lower the weight of the levi or increase the power of the raptor (yeh or both smart ass

)

so i think there are 3 basic options
1: there is a line/script that tells the plane cant lift the levi
2: decrease weight
3: incrase (lift) power

I'm just wondering..this guy just moves the levi till the end of the map and we're brainstorming how to..can't be that hard :S
