How to make a "pour into glass jar effect" - Rowzter - 06-21-2014
So i am creating this puzzle where u place a coppertube & needle in the victims head and you need to fill a glass jar that you place on the floor.
How do you make the effect that the glass jar get's filled with blood that drains from the coppertube.

Well, you use particles and such. Have you tried checking out the script from the original event? Set the entities you need active or inactive depending on when they need to show, then add particles at areas which should be carefully placed so the particles match up with your entities. That should be pretty much it.

This is the script if you want a particle to be active in a script when doing something.
PHP Code:
CreateParticleSystemAtEntity("ps", "ps_acid_machine_bubble_end.ps", "PS", false);
