the first would most definitely take a new anim, or it will look positively horrible.
the tree thing would probabley work, although i don't know how well ai or human players for that matter can shoot while in a setpos loop

you could setpos a pallet in the tree and sit him on that

The hunting tower isn't an addon......it came with Resistance, so it is part of the game.

quite easy. just make a script, and find the pos of where you want the platform (using getPos)

then make a loop like such:
Code: [Select]
_freq = 1
;how many seconds you want it to wait to loop, higher
;time, faster comp

#myloop
pallet_one setPos [***,***,***]
~_freq
goto "myloop"
