Force Field Bridges

Hi all,

I was wondering if anybody here has figured out how to create the force field bridges that you can turn on and off. If anybody has, plz share... I plan on putting them in a level I'm working on.

Thanx

MP doesnt have the netcode needed to make stuff like that work. its literally impossible to put in. read the HEK tut

I did read the HEK tut and it wasn't mentioned so I figured I'd try asking ppl. I was gonna have it so that if you catch somebody taking the flag, you can just turn off the bridge they're on a save a few bullets heh... ohh well. Thanx for the disappointing news though

why not make it glass

unless i'm mistaken, the glass won't respawn into the level so once it's broken, there's no way to get to the flag. i thought up the bridge idea so it's impossible to get the flag yourself, you need a teammate to turn on the bridge in order for you to get it.

In theory i think it will work, it has the *same* properties as the covie sheilds, and they spawn back after 20 secs in multi player (not sure if u can set the spawn time)

well that would work but you would still have to use bullets. lol i have a funny idea a huge map made completley out of glass!! it would make it so you could only melee
