Guts Lifts. How do they work?
« on: March 08, 2011, 12:41:16 PM »
Hello all, I currently am having problems with Guts Lifts. I did everything just like it was done in Gutsman's stage but the Gutslift only goes 1 way and it doesn't come back.
Here's what I get:

Any suggestions on what I should or could do?

I don't know what the textures have to do with it, but the guts lift requires linedefs perpendicular to the lift's path that activates a script when the lift passes over it.  I suggest looking at the official map for more details.  You have to zoom in closely to see these linedefs as they can be hard to see compared to the background.

Hmmm... I copied and pasted the Guts Lift line defs and the Guts Lift itself and it works. However, this Linedef thing still comes up.

The gutslift itself is an actor.

Is there any way to make them 'sticky'?

Obviously cutmanmike had issues with them but with the whole resources of the forum behind us, many of whom are pretty experienced as well, maybe there's a loophole around that whole business that hasn't been thought of

INB4 you didn't check the little script thing on Doom Builder's tray.

Everything that can't be done directly is done via scripting, like turning Bigeyes and Gutslifts around.
