Power Points

Dalin Seivewright

<div class="IPBDescription">Missing the triggerName attribute</div>From reading the mapping guidelines, there is supposed to be a triggerName attribute when you select a power_point entity (with the Select tool). This is supposed to be how you get the power grid running. I've placed a trigger volume that encompases the power_point entity, as well as all corresponding lights. I've also named the trigger volume, however the triggerName attribute in the power_point entity seems to be missing. The only attributes I have for it are Origin and Angles.

Am I missing something blatantly obvious here? The official maps also have this attribute missing.

I think you have to place the power_point entity inside a location entity and then it affects the lights inside that location etc.
Haven't really tested this, but you could check Kouji's <a href="http://www.unknownworlds.com/ns2/forums/index.php?showtopic=111839" target="_blank">sample map</a>

Thanks.
The Location entity works. It does have to be named though.

The Faq is out of date. It was setup like that, but now location entities took on that job.
