InteractConnectPropWithMoveObject - serbusfish - 07-08-2016
I am trying to replicate a wheel pulley mechanism from AMFP (in the Cellar level, map 3). I have the crank wheel, the ropes and the pulley. The mechanism works, the ropes move when I turn the wheel and the door I have connect opens, but the problem is the pulley wheel doesnt spin like it does in AMFP. I have virtually an identical script to what they used, which is:
Quote:void OnStart()
{
//SETUP CONNECTIONS//
InteractConnectPropWithMoveObject("barrelcranktoslope", "CrankWheel_1", "castle_portcullis_4", false, false, 0);
InteractConnectPropWithMoveObject("barrelcranktopulley", "CrankWheel_1", "CrankPulley_1", false, true, 0);
InteractConnectPropWithMoveObject("barrelcranktoropes1", "CrankWheel_1", "slope_ropes_1", false, true, 0);
InteractConnectPropWithMoveObject("barrelcranktoropes3", "CrankWheel_1", "slope_ropes_3", false, true, 0);
}
Is there something else I need to do to get this working in the Dark Descent?

It's been awhile since I've played AMFP, but it's possible that the pulley is a different entity in AMFP than it is in the Dark Descent. Reason why it rotates. I could be wrong though. Sorry I can't be of much help.

I copied the entity over from AMFP, I havent changed any of its properties or anything like that. In the level editor when I select the entity the is a box titled 'angularoffsetarea', could I put something in here perhaps? The description says 'the point it rotates around.' There is also a connected props section which says 'props that are connected to the entity and what will happen will depend upon type of prop. Enter with space and/or comma between entity names.'

You gotta test it first in the model editor, play with it until it behaves as you want.
The AngularOffsetArea is for entities that were made to spin around a point. To use it, you put here the name of an area, and the entity will spin around it instead of itself.
