Need some help with MM's or Trigger_ChangeTarget

Kittamaru

<div class="IPBDescription">Can't find the ChangeTarget 0o</div>Aight, I have a light. I want it to be activated by a button. HOWEVER, I want to have to WELD the powersupply back online before the button works.

I read somewhere using a trigger_changetarget works great. However, i odn't seem to have that in my entity listing <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad-fix.gif" />

Can someone help me make one via multimanager?

So do you want the light to turn on when the weld is completed or do you want a switch to turn it off and on once the weld is completed?

/e
If you wanted it to just turn on when the weld completes, that would be rather simple:

func_weld:
target = multimanager

multimanager:
target1 = func_sparks (if you have sparks, this'll turn them off)
target2 = light_entity
target3 = func_rotate (for a ventilation fan in the same room... i know i'm exaggerating)

that help?

It would appear he wants to weld the power supply.

Now the switch becomes functional and can turn the light on and off.

You would need a slightly morre complicated procedure than that, but my brain is slowly dying, and having been so long since i made a map i can't seem to figure it out...

aarrghh head explodes.

Shall be watching this for updates...

there should be a <a href="http://collective.valve-erc.com/index.php?ent=trigger_changetarget" target="_blank">Trigger_ChangeTarget</a> if you've added the generic HL enitiy list.

In Hammer 3.x go to Tools-> Options

Under Game Data Files, you should have the NS.FGD, you need to add the HalfLife.FGD as well. (If i remember correctly) It also comes with the Hammer install, under the c:\path_to_hammer_install\fgd\half-life....

otherwise, there is another way to do it, but it may cost you about 5-6 entities.
