Attached Sentinal

[legacy-AmericanK]

Is there any way to attach a sentinal to a mover? I have tried the attach tag but it doesnt work. You can attach a emitter to a mover, but not a sentinal doesnt seem to work...

i dont think it can unless you have some custom coding placed in the map.

i'll hump it so hard it'll impale itself on the mover. :P jk... if it's something like convoy or blazingchase, try using the convoy physics volume.

what are you trying to achieve by doing this?

I have the helicopter from GrandCanyon in my map, and I have placed a sentinal on the bottom of it. It looks attached and serves as a spawn protection gun. After a scripted trigger, the helicopter, which is a movers flys across a valley, and then lands on another side of the map to server as an escape vehicle. I want the sentinal to move with the copter.

I also have some sound emittiers what I would like to attach to the copter also, but they do not attach. I can can put a sound with the mover, but it's not quite loud enough.

Maybe I'm going about this the wrong way.

Why not set it up as a vehicle and AI script it. I believe it will work better that way. (Someone with more experience...can pipe up now)

Do you need the sentinel to shoot when it flys by?

If not then just make a mover and give it the mesh of the sentinel. Then spawn a sentenel when it stops, (and disable the old one).

If you need it to fire, then you can edit the code make the sentenel move, but I wont get into that....

also AFAIK, making a sentinel/and or the helicopter into a vehicle and then AI scripting it would be numerous times harder.

I dont need it to shoot when it flys by, but that would be pretty cool.

I thought about the disable sentinal, but it doesnt seem to want to work. I am using a Scripted Trigger with a TriggerEvent call, but it doesnt disable the Sent. Is there a way to just destroy the sent with a scripted trigger?

i'd LIKE to see my precious shoot its pretty red lasers! *looks for a sentinel*
