Can't get a shooter working..

Post by L.Bridge »

Hi,

I've started working on an RTC dungeon and I can't get a shooter to work. I've had a look at the DM map but can't see anything that I've done differently.

I've got a Trigger to Activate a Shooter within a wall. Is there something I'm missing or should be doing etc?

Thanks in advance

Hey, is this L.Bridge as in LMB, author of 'Poison, 'Lost scrolls' and the 'Wake the Dead' level of the team dungeon? If so, welcome back and 'Woohoo' on you working on a new dungeon

Shooters are easy, it should work as you've described it - what's your strength/charge settings? Or can you post the text of your shooter and trigger?

I think the problem is that your relay is targeting itself - it should be targeting the shooter...

If it gets a new dungeon it's not a waste of time : )
