Func_Msgboard: Mapping Help

Posted by metlslime on 2002/12/23 18:31:29

This is the place to ask about mapping problems, techniques, and bug fixing, and pretty much anything else you want to do in the level editor.

Hey All!

Been tinkering with Quake mapping again after ... so very, very long.

At any rate, using Arcane Dimensions and wanting to start the player with just their axe. I see the "takeweapons" key for the worldspawn but not having a lot of luck getting it to do anything. And Google hits are very thin.

Any guidance I could refer to?

Just found the same question on discord.

Give the player a trigger_once hull brush.

classname trigger_once
target take

Another trigger

classname target_items
items 4096
origin . . .
spawnflags 2
targetname take
weapon 4096

Player starts with only the axe.
Thanks riktoi.
