Translocator

[David]

I am guessing the translocator on MHM2 is to help us get ready for the TMH? If so or if not, it was a different way of using it than the "normal" translocator, but I figured it out.

The pro to this translocator is you can go further, you aim at the point you want to go, shoot it and then shoot another portal near you and then you get transported to the first location.

A draw back that I have seen so far, is that you can not telefrag the monster/enemy. With the standard translocator, you can toss the disc to the monster and then use it and it would frag the monster.

But I do see the positive side to it as well. Just need to practice.

Welcome to the Infamous Portal gun David!

First shot shoots first portal, second shot second - second portal ,
third shot delete all portals.

Alt fire deletes last portal.

This gun comes in handy to leave a quick way to some powerups in big maps. how?
Shoot a portal near the power up.
Later in the map open the second portal and walk through to the pickup then walk back.

Yes you can telefrag monsters but you have to be quick, If the monster moves away from the destination portal it wont work. try to shoot the portal under them if possible.

I have also added strangelove2 to the server.
You can now ride the rockets and shoot from them in flight by pushing crouch. You can also scoop up other players to be your gunner!.

It's called "portal gun" and you successfully figured out how it works. There's still a chance to telefrag someone, but it's hard: you need to shoot a portal close enough to your enemy and a second portal close to you, then use it and if you're lucky enough it's a telefrag.

Note: Ice managed to telefrag me in this way

I didn't mean to pots!

Ice is lying Pots. You need to redeem yourself by either taking out Ice on the CG server or telefragging Ice twice as much as he did to you on the same map. Take no prisoners.

You are right K, you can telefrag monsters. I was able to do the a couple times, once to a queen and a titan during one map. Sometimes you might need to sneak up on them before they notice use and use the portal gun before they see you.

That would be such a sweet revenge

Does Portal Gun work on other gametypes than MH?

[K]

It works in all game types as far as i know, its just a weapons mod.

Well, on two different occasions, I used the portal gun to kill a Queen, but the Queen disappeared or dropped from the map. I do not understand that act.

I have used the portal gun quiet efficiently on Queens, Brutes, Warlords, and others. I do not know how to explain it. I put one portal on the Queen and the other near me and I walk through the portal and the Queen is gone, but there is no record on the log that the Queen died and the map gets stuck, doors will not open because the queen is not officially dead.

I have killed other Queens in the same manner but, I have lost two Queens and do not know why.

Just an idea:

Is it possible that you deactivate your portals when queen or other monsters were entering? For example, queen entered on yellow portal and you deactivate them before she appeared on the blue one. Then queen are other monsters are in some sort of limbo, like inside an intra-universe wormhole?? They're trapped in a no-space and no-time place!, maybe they're still there!!

Now seriously, I think maybe it;s just a bug

[-HellFire-]

I was able to kill the Queen on the end of GodzReturn (with portalgun).
Maybe a bug in the map u played David or maybe the portal gun causes this.
But I only know for sure that the Portalgun is fun

I think this is just a error in the portal gun code. Among other things i think it might be the reason my server crashes so much.

If it was your server this happened on you could login as admin and type killall queens and the doors should open.

Scripted pawns like monsters are not supposed to be able to enter the portal i don't think. But i haven't looked at the code to make sure.

Has anyone seen any other monsters go through?
If you have i can relay this error to BlackCheetah the maker of the mod and get it fixed.

I have not yet seen any monsters go through any portals. On the two times the queen got lost/dropped, it was on two different maps. Most likely it is just an error.

[David]

What happened to the portal gun? I went to the server and that map was God's Return, but there was no portal gun. Is it not on that map?
