Need help finding an "actor?" !

Post by XaNKoNII »

Hey, so I was brainstorming for the 5Th room for my upcoming "Dimensions" SP map and I remembered way back when i first used the Unreal Ed (around maybe 9 years ago?). I made an elevator that would bring you to a corridor and on the way up I SWEAR TO GOD there was a Trigger or an actor that made a console comand, I used it to make "slomo .1" and "summon minigun2" wich apeared floating in front of the player actor. Did I use a costum actor (from the various mods I had installed)? or does this come with the Vanilla UT?

Thanks

I never heard of an actor like that, but if it helps somewhat, it does sound like a custom actor to me, I don't recall the game to have anything like that whatsoever (and I already heavily used triggers and such in the remote past).

All actors can execute a ConsoleCommand, 'Actor.uc' has this function:

Code: Select all

// Execute a console command in the context of the current level and game engine.
native function string ConsoleCommand( string Command );
