Doom3world

I am trying to make a lift that will go to the top and stay there until I trigger it.
Would anyone lend me some assistance?

I would use a func_mover for that. You can create a brush, then make that a func_mover.
Then move it via a mapscript either to info_path corners, or move it in a steady direction (e.g. up, down).

Actually, my 'sanctity mod' is a small download and the map in it is filled with examples you could use.

do you have a download link?

nm I see it

I took a look through your map (very impressive) but I did not find what I was looking for

Create a func_mover, name it something like 'func_mover_1'.
Create a script file for your map (new text document in the same folder as your map file, call it the same as your map but give a .script extension).
Paste the two script events below into it. Edit the $yourfuncmover to $<whatever you named your func_mover in the editor>.
Make sure to add the dollar sign.
Now create triggers in your map.
Give them the the key 'call' 'moveup' and 'call' 'movedown' respectively for moving up, or down.

Use this script to move your mover up and down.
The $yourfuncmover.move() command takes two values: the direction and the amount of units to move.
like this $mover.move(-2,200) //up 200 units. -1 = down and all other angles (0-360) are the regular x-angles you can move to.

Thanks for the info. Unfortunately I took the upper lvl and the lift out before I read this last bit you posted, but food for thought for next time.

That's a pity. There *I* was putting time and effort into making an example for you.

Dude don't sweat it the info will more than likely come in handy later on down the road
