MoveObject will only move along X axis

I'm able to have a gate slide open upon a button press, but it will only move along the X axis, when it needs to move along the Z axis in the map. I've tried making sure its not colliding with anything, and still it doesn't move even when there is nothing around it. When set to X axis, it works every time.

Is anyone able to help on this?

RE: MoveObject will only move along X axis

Edit it in the model editor. There should be an option in the variables to choose what axis it goes along.

RE: MoveObject will only move along X axis

This is an example for you Jonny,
This example is done with castle_portcullis!
OPEN your MODEL EDITOR.
Open up the gate you are using.
go to Settings tab and open up USER DEFINED VARIABLES.
Scroll a little bit down, and you will see MoveAxis.
Use X Y Z, what ever you will need for your story.
Then go to *SaveAs and save it in to your custom story under entities.

*DONT JUST SAVE OR YOU WILL OVERWRITE THE ORIGINAL AMNESIA SETTINGS!!!

I hope this helps you with your problem.

RE: MoveObject will only move along X axis

Thanks guys, but I have already tried changing the axis in the editor. It only seems to work at all when the axis is set to X. I'll take a look at the castle portcullis and see if there is anything I've missed.

I've copied the exact settings from the portcullis and it still only moves along the X axis.

User Defined Variables --> Set as MoveObject --> Change MoveAxis as Z --> ??? --> PROFIT

RE: MoveObject will only move along X axis

Any other setting than X will not move the object at all

Maybe it's because of the Joints? Maybe the joints will only react to the X axis or something.

Can you show a screenshot of the model + User Defined Variables.
