Automatic cannon don't shoot... first.

Post by papercoffee »

Another Problem.

I did build this Map GangWar-Rocketfight but my two Auto-cannon "Waldorf" and "Statler" on the ceiling don't shoot @ players or bots... They only fight back when someone hit them accidentally.
How can I make it the two cannons work?

Try triggering the guns with the trigger actor. I think that will do it.

:noidea don't know why ....but It seems that the cannons work now. I deleted them and placed two new cannons, edited the death-message and set the attitude to "frenzy" ....all the same as before!!!
But now it works ...they see me and wanna kill me.


Ok what did I do I set the first cannons and saved them ...then I do add decor elements ...build again and saved this version.
the cannons don't work...
I deleted the old cannons and set new cannons...build all again ...and now they work.

my question: Why? schould I set the cannons last whatever map?
