var TraceCoords[3];

function TeleportGun()
{
me = player;
vec_set(TraceCoords.x, vector(10000, 0, 0)); //shoots 10000 quants
vec_rotate(TraceCoords.x, plBiped01_entity.pan); //shoots in the direction of the player
c_trace(plBiped01_entity.x, TraceCoords.x, ignore_me | ignore_passable | activate_shoot);
if (you)
{
var tempX;
var tempY;
var tempZ;

tempX = plBiped01_entity.x;
tempY = plBiped01_entity.y;
tempZ = plBiped01_entity.z;

plBiped01_entity.x = TraceCoords.x;
plBiped01_entity.y = TraceCoords.y;
plBiped01_entity.z = TraceCoords.z;

you.x = tempX;
you.y = tempY;
you.z = tempZ;
}
}


actually kind of works..well, it doesnt give me empty pointer errors, but also it doesnt teleport me at all, heh.

tried to test it with

plBiped01_entity.x = 100;
plBiped01_entity.y = 100;
plBiped01_entity.z = 100;

instead of any swapping, and it never moves me. soooo im assuming something is either wrong with if(you) or something else =x

It's me = plBiped01_entity;

heh, had already done that before you said =p

still does nothing

so i thought id test something, so i made a room with 4 different textures

c_trace(plBiped01_entity.x,target_pos.x,IGNORE_ME + SCAN_TEXTURE + USE_BOX);
if(tex_name) // An entity was hit?
{
draw_text(tex_name,200,30,vector(100,100,255));
}

no matter what it shows up as the one under me. and as i said earlier the origin is in the middle of my character so that makes no sense heh

im pretty sure its just firing the trace the wrong way, is there a way to visualize the "laser" it shoots?

Also, i can fake a teleport by just removing an entity if its hit and making a new one, i can already do both of those things the problem is just getting the x y z of any entity. sigh.

ok so update, i put that in a while loop so it would stay up, and now it actually switches depending on what texture im looking at, and shows .mdl's if i target them, as well.

the problem is, its not based off my pan at all, its just based off of directly in front of the character.

i guess what im saying is, is it possible to give all the objects i want a certain texture, then if i hit that texture it gets that things x,y,z and stores it somewhere>?

Yeah its possible but why not trace for the ent name instead of textures, might help a little as then you can controll the over use of textures.
