[SCRIPT] How do I make a chair move?

[goodcap]

I tried to make a map to display the three techniques, third one is currently broken and I don't know enough about the script to fix it, second one is noisy. I know there's a way to shut off music for the enemies and disable insanity effects but heck if I can remember!

Everything's in the file attached to this post, script is below in the spoilers

Spoiler below!

The first one was exactly what I was looking for. Thanks a lot dude. I was about to pull my hairs out of frustration. In your test level the chair falls over, but in mine it does not and just moves itself in front of the player to block it's path.


Thanks, guys <3
