Moving Triggers

[DeathBringer]

From: DeathBringer

I made many ctf missions, but when I make missions with triggers that trigger boundaries such as warning triggers and killing triggers them seem to move.  I know lag has alot to do with it, "shadows too".  I been using scripts for these now, but just wondered in anyone knows a solution to this problem I have.  I've tried deleting and making triggers again.  But to no avail.  I would appreciate and suggestions or help!!!

How much does the boundary of the trigger appear to move?

Triggers only check themselves every 0.5 seconds .... and if there's a lot going on and a bit of lag it could easily feel a lot longer, maybe even a couple of seconds.     Could that account for it?

The effect of this shows also when you make a 'thin' trigger. for example with axis or 10 and 200. now if you fly through or just otherwise pass these triggers with a high speed it's very possible the trigger won't activate.

All I can suggest is for you to make a larger trigger radius  :-\

I've also heard (but not witnessed it myself) that a trigger can move around a bit in MP if it is a rectangle trigger.

Try changing the radius to be an elipse, and see if that solves your problem

Sorry for not responding earlier.

Thanks Macguba I'll look into that. ;D

Thanks Sui!  I'll try that. ;D

Thanks Artak!  Ya, most of my warning and kill triggers are very thin.  I'll enlarge them and see if that solve the prob
