Is it possible to make a brush (solid cylinder that lets you walk trough it in my case) have it's own gravity inside it? For example, I want to put respawn points inside that cylinder, so the player gently floats to the ground, and as soon as he goes out he will get normal gravity. |

As far as i know, you can't. The gravity event applies to the whole map. |

Well you can do such an effect with a push zone with a weak force upward. |

Ok, this may seem far fetched, but I recall Kiliad doing some interesting things with gravity.
He made a map in which gravity would increase/decrease on a timer. It seems reasonable to think that you could use the same idea. The only difference being that instead of a timer to control the gravity, you could use a trigger, whenever that trigger is tripped, the gravity would respond accordingly, just a thought. 
P.S. You might wanna PM Kiliad, he'll get ya going in the right direction.  |

that would only work for SP though... so beware if your using the triggered gravity for MP, it would be cool for someone to press a switch, and when everybody else jumped, they wouldnt come back down  |

I think there is a way ... i swore i played a map that would beam you to an empty part of space where you were doomed to drift for all eternity  ... or was that UT2004  .
i dunno ... but i have made some interesting things work for RF recently
i filled a room with lava and made a door that came out about 30 m above the lava level ... then i littered the place with triggers so that when you would jump out into the lava a pillar (about 2 by 2)would shoot up out of the lava to catch you no matter which way you went ... feels and looks kinda cool. |

I tried, but it doesn't work. If it's a jump pad push region, it will hold me at the top no matter what strength I ad. If it isn't a jump pad then it will let me fall trough and at high strengths it will keep me floating above for some time, after which it stops working.
I think I'll try using gravity.
I gave push field another try and success  . Paradoxically I oriented the field towards the ground, gave it strength 100.00, turned it in to a jump pad. It was a bit slow but it worked.
Thank you all for your help. |
