My mouse gets stuck if I alt-tab out of the engine to do a level hotfix.
Hit Escape
to open the menu. That should free the mouse.
Will Give That A Try

I enabled wheel mouse to scroll the console, so please document any nasty issues.

Is still locked in top left corner if I alt-tab out, from the menu, console or otherwise.
This Is On Windows, Right?
Yeah

Having to close the engine to do map fixes, I'm pretty happy with the engine. All features are in and working, everything looks crisp, and it's multi-platform.
Cool.
Engine.

Just thought I'd say that again.
Would You Guys

Be interested in implementing support for 'proper' rotatings code?
Essentially it's true collision on rotating objects, without dicking about with multiple entities all over the place.
We had it implemeted in RMQ and it works like a charm. Obviously a way to mark the pivot (info_notnull) is still needed, but the rest is just making the brushes and configuring them.
Basically takes the pain out of making rotating objects.
Haven't got time just now but I can dig out the specs if anyone is interested.

Also, consider the dynamic light bottleneck fix!

requires a custom progs.dat, naturally, like hiprotate does.

I would point out, i don't think the word "proper" should be used here -- doesn't it just rotate the hulls? (Sure it makes the mapper's life easier but) collision hulls are not equal on all axes -- the player is taller than he is fat, so collision hulls have more height added than they do width. Probably the results are fine as long as you only rotate on the Z axis. But if you tip an object onto its side (like a drawbridge) it will look funny when you try to walk over it.

Been playing around with the Rubicon2 entities and all that rotating stuff. Why is the texture alignment on, say a hatch that only opens 90 degrees, totally screwed?
and setting up those func_movewalls for collision is elaborate(to be honest a pain in the ass..)
Sorry for the wrong thread, just had to let it out:)

the texture alignment on rotators is a compiler bug, i hope someone fixes that someday.
and yes, func_movewalls are annoying to set up. Though they don't really take that much time, it bothers me more how limited they are in functionality.

oh, if you are asking about why the texture alignments are messed up in the .map files for rubicon2, that is to correct for the compiler bug. I had to make them look wrong in the editor so they would look right in the game.
Ahh
#636 posted by mfx on 2014/01/10 22:35:02
So this is at offset 0 0 0 i guess?
Confusing..

#637 posted by metlslime on 2014/01/10 23:36:02
yes, my technique is to move the model so to 0 0 0, fix all the texture alignment, then (with texture lock disabled in the editor) move the brushes back to the correct location in the world.

Center of model at map origin?
Or the lower left corner of the bbox put at origin? (Like when path_cornering?)

#639 posted by metlslime on 2014/01/11 00:20:22
lower left corner (i'm pretty sure)
