I am trying to create a current in a water room using a sink.

It doesn't matter where I place it or what strenght I give it, I can't seem to get it to work.

Can anyone help.

I had the same problem..... however a friend of mine has used them successfully..... i think the placing of the triggers is all-important.... I.E. if you set a sink then place a zone of triggers around it, it should work..... I will ask the guy and post here with any relevant info.

I was able to succesfully use the sinks, although it is important to place the sink "behind" the triggers. So if you are trying to prevent Lara from entering an area, place your triggers where you do not want Lara to pass, and put the sinks behind Lara if she were facing the area you do not want her to enter. Sorry if that sounds a bit confusing, but remember that the sink pulls Lara towards it and doesn't push her.

May I be so boring as to suggest loading up the example levels and having a look?

Yes, but if we all did that, there would be nothing to chat about!

Your not boring in the slightest Reb.

I did try that but when you can't remember which level they were used in and the option under objects, (find object) does not include sinks, or am I mistaken, its a little dificult for someone as simple as moi.

Load the Karnak demo level. Sinks are used in that level.
