EDIT: http://useruploads.mythica.org/view/h3_shield.wmv.html

sadly vehicles still go through, but if the enterance is as narrow as that, thenyou could probably write up a script testing if a player in a vehicle is in a trigger volume at the enterance, and if there is, then create an object that has full collision to everything.

Another method to make the shield would be to create a piece of scenery with full collision and everything, then place it in the map, write a script using the (object_set_collideable <object> <boolean>) command, and make it false. thats probably your best bet so far, itll save a small amount of tagspace.

EDIT 2: ding ding we have a winner :)

that was the above method, with the set collidable script.

I wonder if your scripts could work for the bubble sheild too?:confused:

well, idk if its possible to do it with the bubble shield, since you can't really name a spawned object. but CAD came up with a good method for the bubble shield using garbage tags.
Thanks conscars :)

Does it sync online though?

Yes.

Um... it's a shield. It doesn't move :eyesroll:

but the point is, a shield doesn't move, and you can't break it. It stays there no matter what. That's rather like asking if a wall syncs.
