I am trying to script an object to move counterclockwise but I can not seem to figure out how to do so. The first two scripts work correctly but the third one doesn’t respond. Here is some of the data I have set for the scripts. If you need me to answer anything I will be more than glad to.
Script 1(Works)
Initial Delay 0
Repeat Timer 2
Time: 2
Z Coordinates +13.50
X Coordinates +24
Script 2 (Works)
Initial Delay 2
Repeat Timer 2
Time 2
Z Coordinates +13.50
X Coordinates -24
Script 3 (Not Responding)
Initial Delay 4
Repeat Timer 2
Time 2
Z coordinate: -13.50
X Coordinate:-24
Script 4 (Not Tested)
Z coordinate: -13.50
X Coordinate:+24
OR
Reset to orignal position
use difrent ‘‘channels’’ and use ‘‘power set’’ and ‘‘messages’’ if they don’t work it can be because the ‘‘thing’’ tries to do everything at once… so if you want a delay you can use a diffrent object for the ‘‘timed trigger’’
I’m not very good at scripting but it’s very hard to help you whitout seing it

Here’s what it looks like with this very lazy link.

Looks like you were close. I would suggest trying it with a switch or dummy object that sends messages every 2secs, then the block responds on those messages. That may or may not help.

I get what your trying to say about using switches but the idea for this is to be automatic at start. I tried playing around with it though and didn’t have any luck unfortunately. This is what I’m trying to get the object to do with three other platforms. (Also I am currently remaking this level) It’s around 1:32-1:38 and 3:09-3:15 that the platform is shown.

You can use a dummy object that spawns and respawns while sending messages, then your blocks react from each message. So it would still be automatic, but the blocks would not have initial delays.

Been trying, no luck though.

this is how you use a ''dummy'' as a timer object
i think using ''dummies'' is the best way
look at this meybie you can use 2 ''dummies''

I had success with using the “dummies” and it works pretty good. Unfortunately there are some problems I am running into though; all involving budget.
Object budget is maxed out and even if i did have room I still need to put in more spawn points.
I am also worried at the script budget, seeing how it "cost’ 12 scripts just for one movement.(And it would have to be done with 11 other platforms as well).
Unless if the timer get fixed+scripting budget increases in a future update (which I am not too optimistic about but I think there can be a chance), I’ll leave the platforms stationary for now. I definitely appreciate the help though.
you’re welcome, it’s nice too see that you sucseeded
