Alright i have tried all ways of doing this without scripting but i cant get it to work. Ive never scripted before and I think i may know an answer.

I want the player to stand on an object following a waypoint(such as a antigrav platform) and not beable to move off of it(no im not making walls). Could I uce the Plrass command to do this? If so how. Any help would be greatly appriciated!

Thanks to all who try to help,
Ultimate Gamer

P.S.- I have tried setting the speed to zero but since update 1.03 (I Belive) it doesnt go lower than about 50.

I am no script wizard, but by looking at my manual what about using the FREEZE command?

FREEZE=X | Stops the entity from moving.

Ill try some stuff for you and post my results. As I been meaning to learn scripting for awhile. Perhaps someone will beat me to the correct answer

Your on the right track, but yeah, the zone is going to be an issue.

This is a variation of the follownorotate.fpi

Quote: "
;Artificial Intelligence Script

;Header

desc = Follow Waypoints with player locked (platform)

;Triggers

:state=0,plrdistwithin=40:state=1,norotate=1
:state=1,plrdistfurther=41:plrmoveto=platform
:state=1,waypointstate=0:animate=2,waypointstart
:state=1,waypointstate=3:animate=2,waypointnext
:state=1,waypointstate=4:animate=2,waypointrandom
:state=1,waypointstate=5:state=2
:state=2:none

;End of Script
"


Name your platform "platform" or change the name in the script.
The platform waits for the player to get on before moving.
Once on, the platform follows the waypoints normally.
If the player tries to step off, he is moved back on.
When the platform reaches waypoint state 5 (end of waypoint), the player can step off.

Best.

I'm sorry, my answers are limited. You must ask the right question.

The norotate command refers to the platform, not the player. Yes, the player can rotate freely.

Best.
