Prop Rotating on Func Button.

Well my first question is can you rotate a prop_dynamic about an origin using the func_door_rotating, and if so can you relate this rotation to a func button. Or by any means a func_button onto a door.. or brush.

I am trying to make a mock street with Axis Soldier models on a rotation to swing into windows or doors on a button push.

Thank You,
BR

couldn't you use the train to make them move into the window/doorway?

Not entirely sure what you're getting at, but here's a few things you could try.

Make a func_door_rotating. Name it door1 or whatever.

Make a func_dynamic with an Axis model (assuming you can do this) and name it axis1.

Then cover the func_dynamic in a brush, texture it nodraw and tie it to a func_rotating and call it rotation1.

Then go back to the func_dynamic and in the parent field put rotation1.

Then make a func_button, and in the outputs put OnPressed - rotation1 - Start.

Then another output with OnPressed - rotation1 - Stop and set the 'After a delay of' to about 0.50.

Then another with OnPressed - door1 - Open - 0.50.

Or something like that.. my brain just started hurting. Experiment.

Hey man Ill try it, I get exactly what your saying thats the weird part for me....

If worst comes to worst ill try the func_tracktrain, but i just dont mant to mess with it, I rather them rotate. If worst comes to worst, Ill try and put them in a texture on a brush, instead of the model itself...
