tomb raider fan Member Posts: 463 From:England, Sheffield Registered: Dec 2000 | posted 01-23-2002 11:54 AM why does lara jump straight through the pushable onject. i might know why. i have a romm which is 3 x 1, it's a water room and has a height of 1 click. and on top of the room is another romm which is 8 clicks high. i placed the pushable object in the water room. she can push it alright but she can jump staright through the boject and when she kinda looks away from the object, it goes invisible. whats happening?

When you view this object inside the editor and change into the stacked room above you will notice the same effect. This indicates that the editor exactly lets you see what you will get ingame. You will find this effect for instance with columns too. When Lara is swimming, she swimms through a column etc. So when Lara gets into a stacked room with a watered room underneath this effect will always return. It is invisible with some cam positions and has got no collision. To solve this problem, split your 3 X 1 waterroom into 3 pieces. Re-connect them, place your pushable object in one of them and apply toggle opacity on both sides of the connection so Lara cannot reach the pushable when your room is watered. Split your stacked room above so that there is a single room left that matches the pushable room, connect all vertical/horizontal doors, apply toggle opacity to the upper room connections too. Lara now can't jump through. Then create a flipmap of all 4 rooms (those which are connected to the pushable rooms)and trigger them according to your water amplitude change. Delete the opacity effect inside your flipped rooms. That's it ------------------ IP: Logged
