See the custom map northpole. www.drakir.tk iirc for the download. On the first Axis spawn I think it is there is a cannon. When a player slides in it it fires them accross a map… cant u just use an angled jump pad with high power? :]

if u are wanting to make a portable type catapult, look at g_damage, the knockback code
if u ware only doing a one off thing in a map, yeh an angled jump pad would be smart

Yeah i managed 2 make it using a jump pad, thx ne way, now i just gotta turn off fall damage so they dont go splat when they land! :banana:

If they are going to land in a set spot you could place the Cushion texture on a brush to break their fall.
