Hello everybody. I recently started mapping and now I am stuck at a point. I am using QuArK and i want to implement a platform in my map. My problem is that it seems that only 2-way platforms are possible. Platforms that are going up and down OR left and right. I would like to use a 4-way platform, going down, right, up, left and repeat. like a circle. Is that even possible? And if this is not possible, can you make a platform go down, disappear and reappear at the start point again?

Thx a lot

Sounds like a map from SMB

You will need to use a func_train with path_corners.
eg:

func_train: targetname "corner1"
path_corner: targetname "corner1" & "target" "corner2"
path_corner: targetname "corner2" & "target" "corner3"
path_corner: targetname "corner3" & "target" "corner4"
path_corner: targetname "corner4" & "target" "corner1"

You will no be able to make it stop though. And it can only move in rectangular ways (iirc).

rectangular ways? train moved from one path_corner to another and count of corners "unlimited", also you can use wait flag/property/whateveryoucallit on each corner so train stay at corner for some time before continue movement.

Yes, rectangular. You cannot make the train move in diagonal directions unless my memory fails me really bad.

Spirit: it does.

That is actually a good thing then.

Thx for your help.
It works, just need to play a little bit more around with it. Just one thing. It has to be

func_train: targetname "corner1" & "target" "corner1"

otherwise the platform follows you all the time

oops, I typed wrong up there.
The func_train needs "target" "corner1", it must NOT have "targetname" "corner1".
