Hi I was wondering how to make an object like chair flying slowly in the air like levitating
but the only result I have is making something flying By an impulse
...
I want to be able to manipulate position, rotation, and scale of entities via scripting, simple !

Use AddPropForce in a timer (that runs maybe 50-100 times a second) instead... Then just find the amount of force required to just make the chair lift off the ground.
Isnt't there a less tricky method like a SetPos Or SetRot ?
If you edit an object in the ModelEditor you can turn off gravity on it so that it floats in the air. Then you can use scripting to push it a little bit in different directions. That's probably your best bet.
that is a good idea nofsky, i am trying that right now and it is the closest i found to what i am trying to achieve, thanks!
edit : i found a semi-solution, i play with gravity, impulses and block boxes that are blocking everything but the player. But i still have problems making a good loop with impusles, i try something like :
Code:
while (1)
{
AddTimer("", 1.0f, "LevitateUp");
AddTimer("", 2.0f, "LevitateDown");
}
void LevitateUp(string &in asTimer)
{
AddPropImpulse("MyChair", 0.0, 1, 0.0, "world");
}
void LevitateDown(string &in asTimer)
{
AddPropImpulse("MyChair", 0.0, -1, 0.0, "world");
}
I know my while loop is an infinite loop, and it is making the game crash, but i think maybe i don't know where to place it. I want the levitating effect to start as soon as the player enters the level. Any input? Thanks.
please anyone can help with creating a loop that will give a levitating effect on an object?
The object is already standing in the air, i just need to give it a nifty effect of vibrating.Thanks!
