Some odd bugs UE2 and ingame

[papercoffee]

Ok I have reinstalled UT Goty on my machine.
I have build a sniper 1on1 Map. It is a bridge with crates (beta) an barrels.
For ammo I used the rifleshell and placed some in the map.
On the Start 4 rifleshells then here and there some.
All should act naturally, so I rotated some rifleshells and lay them down.

3 rifleshells turned bright and didnt show up ingame.
1 rifleshell on the playerstart turned bright too ... it was normal useable ingame but nonerasable in UE.
These bugs are fixed but I don't know how? the nonerasable rifleshell turned normal again after several restart of the editor.
the 3 other buggy pickups has been deleted.

Next bug... or something I didn't realize.
I never used crouch in UT (Yeah I am a berserker) but for the Snipermap I have to use it or I get hit.
So I realized I can't walk over the edge of a Brush or a barrel ... I am unable to walk over the edge if I am crouch.
And this in all maps.
What is this?

While walking or crouching you can't walk over edges by standard, so this is a feature, not a bug

Regarding the rounds: dunno, can't say anything to it if I haven't played or seen it. Sometimes UED acts strange rendering or placing stuff, that's it.

That's one of UT features - it won't let you fall over whenever you are walking or crouching. Fairly useful online.

...live with that. Hm ...ok ... strange ED is strange.

But this crouch thingy: I played UT for almost 8 years ...and I never use this feature. Most I never realized it

If you duplicated the sniper ammo, try adding it one by one manually. I used to duplicate playerstarts and noticed that the duplicated ones doesn't worked.

The problem isn't duplication. You must rebuild the bot paths in order to make all the playerstarts to work properlly. In the case of ammo, if you say it was bright, it could be colliding outside of the world (although it should get destroyed if it get's completelly out, or adjust if its physics is PHYS_Falling). When rotating inventory or another actor with collision, be sure you adjust the collision values as well, otherwise bugs like that may happen eventually.

I have a slightly clue what you wanna say, but I don't know exactly what you mean...

Basically, everytime you rotate any actor with collision (like ammo for example), adjust its collision as well for the new rotation.

For instance, if you rotate a CTF flag 90º (pitch) you must adjust its collision, otherwise people are about to score (like me) and if they don't go for the center of the flag, they miss, although they shouldn't.

So basically, everytime you rotate an actor with collision, adjust its collision (adjust CollisionRadius and CollisionHeight, and to actually see the collision in the editor, turn "Actors > Radii View" on, in the viewport bar).

ok now I understand.... thank you .....phuuu didn't know this is important too.

I've never noticed that rotating issue with actors... Nice advise, tho.
