I'm working on my second map now and its coming along good, Its is a large warehouse type building. I'm working on giving it animated conveyors that lead to deadly traps, and atom smashing mahines that kill instantly if you get crushed my one. It is a large map and you have to dodge all the machinery to get the other teams flag, then continue back.

This map will call for quick reaction times and teams to go for intel instead of the usual, "one scout run" If anyone knows how to make an entity that can repeatedly move up and down quickly (for smashing), please tell me

screenies are in the near footure

El Pyro -

You'll want to use elevators to achieve that effect.  Do a search for them on your favorite mapping help sites.

Hmm.. the map being large and the fact that it requires dodging machines seems like it makes camping too easy (as it sounds like it requires long runs & you may not always even make it) for both teams. I know nothing about how the actual map would play, but this just popped in my mind while reading the post.

And about the smasher entity, the first thought that I got was elevator based on func_door with timed self-closing. Not sure if you can make it open via some sort of timer output though.

Thank you for the feedback I will have things to prevent camping, and there will be several ways to get to the intel besides dodging the machinery and running straight for it
