Digging up objects.
« on: 26 Mar 2003, 07:18:31 »
I was reluctant to post this because I'm sure it has been posted before, but I couldn't find where. When objects are placed inside buildings (ie. cars in garages on nogova) they are always a little underground. Another example would be barrels not sitting on the ground, but in it. How could I fix this problem?

Sorry for the repetition.

I can't think of any other way than setpossing.

Say you have a barrel you want to raise a bit. You'd name the barrel as barrel1 and type in it's init field:

barrel1 setpos [getpos barrel1 select 0, getpos barrel1 select 1,(getpos barrel1 select 2)+0.1]

That will raise the barrel for 10 centimeters
Not all is lost.

or change barrel1 to this, and that way it'll just d it for that object automatically

I think the reason is because the cars are sitting on the floor and the floor of the garage is a slightly raised. Like the effect you get on docks... you run onto them sometimes and sink into the concrete.  ;)
