Teleports and links?

Post by smartkid »

Code: Select all

teleporter
name Red TeleWall B
	position -380 0 1
	rotation 180
	size 0.125 35 49
	border 0
end

link
	from Red TeleWall B:f
	to Red TeleWall B:f
end
simply put I want this teleport to reflect anything that touches it, but whenever I link anything the link doesent work! So what am I doing wrong?

no spaces in names, and the name of the tele has to go after the 'teleporter' too.

another possible problem

Post by optic delusion »

There can be another problem, if you put a teleporter on top of a meshbox or arc, it must sometimes be .001 unit ABOVE it, in order to work properly.
If shots go through properly, but tanks don't, this is your problem.
Just something to keep in mind.
Take a look at my Defender game mode concept.

Thinking is not an automatic process. A man can choose to think or to let his mind stagnate, or he can choose actively to turn against his intelligence, to evade his knowledge, to subvert his reason. If he refuses to think, he courts disaster: he cannot with impunity reject his means of perceiving reality.

Do you know if this will be fixed in 2.0.6?
