[SCRIPT] Grab entities

[ooadrianoo]

Is it possible to grab and rotate entities via script?

Well, you could probably fake it with invisible ropes and out-of-view wheel entities, or create a prop animation. Otherwise, i doubt it.

[ooadrianoo]

hmm Then I have to make ropes invisible by model editor...
I hope it will be different in hpl3.
I want to script, that the player takes a brick and destroy a window.
Otherwise he only jumps out.

That's different than what you were asking. This is can be done without a script. Certain entity types have the ability to "break" when an object with certain force is thrown at it.

Entities -> obstacles -> mb_window_noglass
Entities -> Special -> mansionbase_large_window_breakable

Combine these two and you can break the window by throwing things at it. It might be that you have to use bigger items than a brick, for example a chair.

This is not the problem, it should be completely scriptet.

But I don't want do this without a script.

But I don't want do this without a script.

But if the player is supposed to do it, why not have the player do it?

[ooadrianoo]

It will be done completely in a script! The player hasn't got any controls.
The brick should be take up in a script, but I see it, it is not possible.

How about:

*Standing in front of window*
SetPlayerActive(false);
Then put the brick on a blockbox.
Give the brick some AddPropForce
and remove the blockbox.

This may seem hard for you, but without a script, it is a lot easier. Trust me.

But if you want to go for the script, then go for it! Nobody's holding you back.
