Tanktrain help

I keep having trouble with tank trains. When i try to make them, the block im moving is all black and facing the wrong direction. Can i have some help and maybe some likns to tutorials on how to use tanktrains properly?

Try using func_tracktrain instead of tanktrain. I'm not sure what tanktrain is really meant for, but tracktrain is far less buggy and probably what you want to use.

There is no "N" in "Turret."

What is tracktrain?

func_tracktrain is a brush entity available in all Source games. It functions as a moving platform that the player can ride. It follows a path of path_track entities.

Protip: Check the fixed orientation flag on the tracktrain itself.

"Oh, in case you got covered in that repulsion gel, here's some advice the lab boys gave me: DO NOT get covered in the repulsion gel."

Hoe do i make it follow a path? I only see an option for the starting point.

Say you make 2 of 'em. Naming one <point A> and one <point b> in the keyvalues of point A you should see something to the effect of "destination".

'OnPass' output from a path_track.
