Pushing paint blobs

#1 · July 1, 2012, 2:17 pm

Hi! I'm trying to push paint blobs (produced with a info_paint_sprayer) using a trigger_push, but it won't work for some reason. Looks like those little blobs are not considered physic objects. I tried with a prop_paint_bomb entity, and it works fine. But I need smaller blobs (I want it to flow).
Any idea?

Try a point_push?

Oh wow! It works! Thank you so much for the quick reply!

Trigger_push isn't working because the paint blobs of paint_sprayer are no "real" physica props. Paint_bombs are.

Paint is still affected by physics. I just wonder if they had ticked the right flag for it to work.

As I said, they are sometimes "not real" physical objects. They may collide but they don't have a "hard" entity you could hit (at least, I didn't found one).
Paint_bombs are using the glass futbol model.
