One of my Rollingballs which rolls down a 1-click sloped 1-square tunnel disappears when it reaches a 4-(or 5-)click high floor wall. Is a ghost haunting it or what?  Please help. Thanks in advance 
Oh, and I still have that mummy problem where it spins around 360º. I have imported a new mummy from tut1.

well, I've never used a rollingballs going on a one click slope, have you tried changing the slope, or would that ruin the trap? also, what rollingball are you using? you may want to extract one from tr1 or 2, because these are a single animation, and will not stop till they hit a wall, but they might go right through the floor since your using a 1-click slope. hmmm.. I'll think about this. and as for the mummy, what happens exactly, he just walks around then does a 360? i dont really understand but I'll help if I figure it out 
Good luck!  ------------------
well you might like to mind, the bell!

You could try slanting the slope at the bottom the opposite way, so that it rolls between the two slopes.------------------

Yes, that would make it too high for Lara to climb up at the end of the tunnel. quote:

When triggered, it turns around 360º once and then stands still until Lara comes near. But he does not if it has the OCB number of 2 (the number that makes him lie down until triggered. I have a nice scary spike trap about this. Lara has to trigger some spikes somewhere else than stepping on them, and a mummy is lieing (can't spell  ) on the spikes, and when Lara triggers the spikes the mummy wakes up. BWAHAHAHAHAA! )). quote:

Yeah, that's probably the only solution, but that would result in a wobbling rollingball. But I think I'm going to use it anyway. [This message has been edited by hteS (edited 06-25-2002).] IP: Logged |

Or maybe it will be a "division by 0" error and the Rollingball will be given a random direction/speed value and it will be shot towards Lara with the speed of light... lol j/k IP: Logged |
