Deathrun trap ideas?

[WabbaJ@ck 18]

Hello it's Wabba! I am working on my own deathrun map called mp_deathrun_mlg and I REEEAAHHLYY can't come up with any good, unique traps :(

Can someone somehow hint me or give some ideas?

Thank you :D

 

 

My map screens:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

BTW does my map look decent enough?

or just add an attachment,

 

Traps should be unique to ur map surroundings and map name, some screenshots of the map layout would be useful if u have any

I am thinking to add a trap where a player gets trapped in a room, then a smoke effect will be played and a death trigger will come from the above and kill the player :D

The only thing is, I don't know how to kill the player without moving the trigger or having the trigger in anyway... What is the code for hurting the player?

Thank you :D

hurt_trigger on the ground with 1000 dmg :dave:

 

And it looks like a decent map, easy design and looks kinda good. I would add slightly more details and it will be far then good :)

To move a trigger you have to link it to a movable brush. So, in your case, place a noclip/nodraw brush in the middle of your trigger. Then in your script link your trigger to the brush and move the brush.

I just make a trigger multiple, and then when it gets activated, thread something that makes player suicide, and then have that thread delete the trigger multiple ezpz

You mean this:

  spikes enablelinkto ();
  spikes linkto (platform);

So I can't just give the trigger a targetname and then move it in my script?

Yuhp. CoD4 doesnt allow it for some reason

By the way what is the nodraw clip? Is that a texture that's non-colliding?

Thank you :D

My fx aren't working

trap7()
{
 door = getEnt("door","targetname");
 trig = getEnt("trap7_trig","targetname");
 trig waittill("trigger", player);
 //player braxi\_rank::giveRankXP("", 10);
 trig delete();
 
door moveY(-132,1);
 
fire1 = getent("fire1","targetname");
level._effect[ "fire" ] = loadfx( "fire/firelp_med_streak_pm_h" );
maps\mp\_fx::loopfx("fire", (fire1.origin), 3, (fire1.origin) + (0, 0, 90));

door moveY(132,1);
}

Is there something wrong in the code?

Thank you :D

You can also use this to turn triggers on and off:

triggername maps\mp\_utility::triggerOff();
triggername maps\mp\_utility::triggerOn();

Can someone help me with the fx?

I've spent three hours trying to figure it out, but no luck...

do you have /fx_enable set to 1? ( i think it's the command )

yes

[WabbaJ@ck 18]

do you have /fx_enable set to 1? ( i think it's the command )

It works when I have it like this:

trap7()
{
smoke = getent("smoke","targetname");
level._effect[ "smoke" ] = loadfx( "deathrun/green_smoke" );
maps\mp\_fx::loopfx("smoke", (smoke.origin), 3, (smoke.origin) + (0, 0, 90));
}

but when I want it to start when a trigger is activated it doesn't work...

I got the script working! Only thing is, it's in a loop. Can I make it play in a spesific amout of time then stop? Are some fx in a loop and some not?

A loop doesn't have to be infinite, just set your loop to be a specific time.

Any new ideas?
