Mapping Problem

chaosripper

<div class="IPBDescription">Buildings fall through floor?</div> Hey,

I've decided to build a map for NS. I first tried to make a testmap for NS to test if i could create the commander mode. But when i start the level and i spawn in the marine base, the buildings seem to have sunk (half) through the floor. Also when i try to drop new buildings, they also fall half through the floor. Weird bug, huh? <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->

I searched on the forums and on other sites to find a solution but I can't seem to fix the problem.
Also, when i walk against a wall i can see through the wall a little bit. I think that it has something to do with the model sizes or the FGD or something...

Does any1 know the solution? <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->

Sounds like you are not using the ns hull file. nshulls.hull needs to be set as a parameter for CSG.

Avoid the bottom to be on Z=0 (height 0) and avoid really thin floors.

That did the trick thnx <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo--> forgot the hull file. But when I build a building it' completed in 1 second... can't it be slowed down to normal building speed? I tried to look for sprites but i can't find it. Or should it be configured on the server (console?)

Isn't there a place where all these basic NS things are written down?
Because i can understand that it's real annoying that i'm asking these questions <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

As for building fast, it's because sv_cheats is enabled. sv_cheats causes buildings to be built VERY fast and allows cheat codes to be used. It's on by default when you start a server. You can turn this off in advanced server options or by typing "sv_cheats 0" in the console.

Basic NS things are all posted at the very top of every section of this messageboard. Just look at the stickies above.
