some thoughts

well, i was brainstorming a bit for mapping ideas.

no i have a idea in my head, regarding some space stuff.

but here i have some questions.

is it possible to:
change gravity during play (in script ?) making it stronger/less strong ?
change gravity for specific area’s ? (example room 1 has 100 gravity wile room 2 has normal 800 )
change the direction of the gravity during play ? (so it can be switched a few times during map playing time)

mm thats about it for now :slight_smile:

You can set the gravity, yes , but make it change, I don’t think so.

AFAIK, you can’t change gravity for specific area’s (but correct me if I’m wrong)

AFAIK

gravity can be changed during map but only though admin commands

gravity is a constant value across the entire map

ET does not have the capacity to rotate players, so even if you did manage to change the direction of gravity they players would not be able to move on the walls they landed on

however for space stuff it is possible to make a water shader that has invisible sides. So when players enter it gravity hardly affects them and they can move in any direction. downsides that they will drown after some time (may or may not be a bad thing if your trying to make outer space) and there are certain weapon restrictions

with water volumes you also have to be careful how your players can enter them otherwise your going to get splashes and water sound effects playing witch would look quite odd

heheh

guess this idea cant be done the way i would like it haha

well, was worth the thought dough :slight_smile:

i don’t know if i remember right but i thought the map Space Frag (Beta 3) had gravitiy change in parts of his map …you gotta try since i got no nerv to try it out :wink: (Too complex map for mee :P)

Map is here : http://www.wolfmap.de/details.php?file_id=3286

But i really don’t know if i am right, i just remember that he uses that :S
