Suspended Platform Effect

[MC]

I was wondering if anyone knew how to get a brush act like a suspended platform, slowly moving up and down as if suspended in air.

you can use a func_door, then have it auto trigger itself

Or you can use a func_train and set a very low speed.

Func dor should be the easier one.

Youll need to build a track for the train. While dor just moves up and down (or any other direction you set it to). You can then make it trigger itself all the time and wolla.

Yes, but if the platform is "floating" it should move on more axis.
I'll show an example if i have time.

True but he jsut said up and down ^^

if you want it floating somewhat "randomly" you should use a func_train with a dozen or so path_corners until it repeats the sequence. that way you can have more variation and yet have it looped.

yeah, that works I used that technique in my esf_moon map with floating asteroids, works very well, but my asteroids didn't seem to follow the right path, oh well.

I use a similar thin for my lightnings. Makes them seem random but is really looped

Love how its impossible to proove that it isnt random XD
