[QUOTE=DasMatze;34447731]Or parent it to a func_physbox.[/QUOTE]
[quote]I would, but the outro train model is prop_dynamic only and prop_physics_override doesn't have a "parent" field, meaning I can't parent it onto the movelinear [/quote]
Physbox doesn't solve the problem. With a phys_constraint, you can set one side to be the prop, the other to the tracktrain/movelinear.
I'm in.
[QUOTE=TRLEChippers;34446881]i have (sort of)

obviously the train will fall much better when it's done
also if someone could skin the outro train model to look like an actual london underground train that would be greatly appreciated

i think i made the explosion sound a bit loud[/QUOTE]
Maybe you could make it turn into a physics prop (replace it with a physics prop when it reaches a certain point over the canyon with something (maybe a trigger_push that activates for that certain sequence?) to push it so it carries on with it's trajectory.
Just a thought.
Although, technically only the dlr would continue off the tracks. The rest are driven by humans, who are usually on strike.
Images!
Not sure if i want a second monorail car...i'd have to put another officeblock/station next to that one if i do.

If you decide to, see if you can put seats on it. I hate standing up in brush-trains and I get jerked around it, sometimes dying.
Probably not going to have any, or too many high speed turns, but ill test it thouroughly before release :)
Last image of the night...because no city is complete without a police station:

The roof leaks like hell though...
Haven't updated my map for sometime, so here is the current plan:
[img_thumb]http://filesmelt.com/dl/plans1.png[/img_thumb]
Depending how prominent the trains have to be, for example; does the player have to have control over them or be able to access them. If player needs then I will make the trains go to 4 different locations, into the factory and outside of the crater. If player doesn't, then it most likely will be that I will lay out multiple tracks over the city and trains whipping by in them. Most likely have to cut stuff out as I might run out of time, after the contest I am playing with the idea of turning it into RP map.
Well I managed to get the train crash working

I used a physics prop with trigger_push. With some particle effects this'll work like a charm
[editline]31st January 2012[/editline]
ignore the buggy audio; it was a problem with the train crash sounds
it sounds better in game
Why is the carriage moving on it's own?
Dear god, my fucking ears...

Much better
Maybe you should make that dirt bump at the end of that track as a non-solid entity, as the train does some weird bump. Perhaps you can also make it trigger some dust particles to appear?
And why hasn't blackice ended up with a train related title yet :)

Hmm, wasn't there someone who suggested a detective train enthusiast something title for me? I had a PM somewhere let me find it.

NO.

Blah.

That map is looking kinda epic.
I see a pink floyd referance...*facepalm.
Oh, and i think we need to get sphinxa a mobility scooter...
God fuck there's nothing wrong with Pink Floyd.
