walls u can go through?(and more)

[legacy-coywolf333]

making a new map that meant to confuse ppl and stuff. anyway, how do u make it so a wall does NOT block ppl? like, u see it, but u can move through it. is there a way to do this?

also, is there a way to attach objects to a mover so they all move? as in, make a whole room move?

and also(lol, so many questions) how do u make a mover randomly choose which location to move to?

and also(last one, i promise. for now) is there a way to also push a button and that chooses which location to move a mover to?

sry, one last one, i swear, how do u make things, like security cameras, so u can go up to it and see down hall ways and stuff.


sry for all the questions. any help appreciated.

can you show me a pic of what wall you want to walk through?
then i can help you

[legacy-coywolf333]

well, it doesnt matter does it? its just gonna be like a small section of a wall about, i dunno, big enough for u to crawl through

[legacy-Nuclear hazard]

CameraTextureClient setup with an InterpolationPoint and destination texture.

for the walk though wall thing you can just add a sheet to the part you want to walk though

[legacy-Nuclear hazard]

dont you have to go in the surface properties and unmark the `two sided` option?

easiest way to make weird walls is

a staticmesh wall without collision!

and for the security camera, there
is a nice tutorial at angelmapper's site: http://angelmapper.com/tutorials/securitycamera.htm

for the walls, i was thinking there might have been a way to just have a texture with no surface of anything, cause ive done it accidentally before.

I've never tried it, but check DM-Curse4, at the end of the top plank--it's done there.

"anyway, how do u make it so a wall does NOT block ppl? like, u see it, but u can move through it. is there a way to do this?"
In addition to what everyone else said, you could add a blocking volume to block certain things, like weapons fire (NonZeroExtentTraces and ZeroExtentTraces) which could be useful as bots can still see you through a sheet brush, unless you used a static mesh, maybe...

"is there a way to attach objects to a mover so they all move? as in, make a whole room move?"
yes, provided the whole room is made of movers. Set them all to bSlave = true under mover in properties, then set their tag (under events, in properties) to the same as the master mover's tag bSlave = false). Master can be whichever mover you like.

"how do u make a mover randomly choose which location to move to?"
you can't, at least not without being extremely complicated. I don't know how. (Ever tried DM-CPB2-Reconstruct? that has a pretty cool mover effect). Movers work in a sequence, and can't, asfar as I know, skip frames.


"is there a way to also push a button and that chooses which location to move a mover to? "
no, but you can use a use trigger to do things like change the direction of the sequence, start the sequence, reverse it, etc

hope that helped

:heart: (Add Special Brush) button on the left or you can just add the brush and right click on it in wireframe and in the menu you will have (type-nonsolid)

[legacy-coywolf333]

yes, that did help a bunch

also, another question. how do u do doors that open when u get near it, but then close when u go thorugh. like at a grocery store
