Collision problem

[Ni3ls]

Hi all,

I made some blocks that people dont go outside. When the collission of players is enabled (they cant go through each other, the block is working). When its disable, players can also go through this block and it doesnt block anymore.

naarbuiten1()
{
origin=(-1277,-16209,58);
col1 = spawn("script_origin", origin);
col1 setcontents(1);
col1 solid();
}

How to fix it?

try setcontents(257)

[Ni3ls]

Not working :(

[thOuMta]

collision()
{
while(isAlive(self))
{
self setContents(256);
wait 0.05;
}
}


call on spawnPlayer() :)

The disablecollission is working Thoumta, but that makes it that players can go to some solid object. This shouldnt be the case.
@izno i used the setcontents(257) in the script above and not on the players. Is this correct?

[IzNoGoD]

Players should have setcontents(256) maybe 257

[Ni3ls]

Players should have setcontents(256) maybe 257

I still dont get it.

In main() I add
disableGlobalPlayerCollision();

This works, players can go through each other now. Do I have to add something else?

[IzNoGoD]

Well, disableglobalplayercollision() is kinda bad as it disables basically ALL collision. Would be nice to have a per-player collision (yes/no) thingy

[Ni3ls]

But what happens if 1 player has no collision and the other has it? Can they move through each other? And for bullettrace you must set it to 257 right? What happens if they are in each other and u enable collision?

[Ni3ls]

After using this

collision()
{
while(isAlive(self))
{
self setContents(257);
wait 0.05;
}
}

and 256 instead of 257, i can still walk through that "block"

[Ni3ls]

Anybody knows another working method? I have to prevent that people enter a window, so a small block is enough

[IzNoGoD]

spawn a trigger_radius instead of a script_origin.

[Ni3ls]

Doesnt work either. I have created the trigger_radius and use

trigger setcontents(257);
the trigger doesnt work anymore (tested with
trigger waittill("trigger",player);)
I can still walk through it. Tried with values 1, 256 and 257

[Ni3ls]

Do you think there is another method from preventing players entering a certain area? I already was thinking of teleports, but this can be misused in the gameplay

Ye, it came as an update to cod2 1.0, in the form of killtriggers
