Help Gradually move player to a position

[zurasaur]

Hi, I'm relatively new to scripting.

I want to be able to move from a spot where I'm standing, to another position.

This code works, however i need it so i gradually move positions instead of instantly teleporting.

could any ones brilliant scripting knowledge tell me how i could do this please. Im sorry if this was a noob question


I've got this code in my gsc at the moment

Code:

savePos()
{
self endon("disconnect");
self notifyOnPlayerCommand("save", "save");
for ( ;; )
{
self waittill("save");
self.saved_origin = self.origin;
self.saved_angles = self.angles;
}
}

loadPos()
{
self endon("disconnect");
self notifyOnPlayerCommand("load", "load");

for ( ;; )
{
self waittill("load");
self freezecontrols(true);
wait 0.05;
self setPlayerAngles(self.saved_angles);
self setOrigin(self.saved_origin);
self freezecontrols(false);
}
}

PHP Code:

savePos()
{
self endon("disconnect");
self notifyOnPlayerCommand("save", "save");
for ( ;; )
{
self waittill("save");
self.saved_origin = self.origin;
self.saved_angles = self.angles;
}
}

loadPos()
{
self endon("disconnect");
self notifyOnPlayerCommand("load", "load");

for ( ;; )
{
self waittill("load");
self freezecontrols(true);
wait 0.05;
self setPlayerAngles(self.saved_angles);
self setOrigin(self.saved_origin);
self freezecontrols(false);
}
} 


Use Insert formatted code or Insert formatted PHP code if you paste any code.

So you want to automatically go to Y position from X? Like a BOT?

yes exactly, just not instantly. i want the player to move gradually.

sorry for not formatting correctly

Use for loop with 'wait 0.1;' or less.

i have read a loops tutorial by yamato, and i understand loops. but im not sure i understand what exactly i should loop , could you explain or give me a pointer pretty please?

i'm on my phone right now, so it'd sadly take too long to write actual code, but ill try to explain:

I assume you want to move the player rather than teleport, right? Make an invisible script_model, and link the player to that model using the playerlinktodelta function. Move the model using the moveto function. When the moving is finished, unlink the player. I think @Yamato has a tutorial for moving objects.

Look up the list of all cod gsc functions, it'll help a lot! Should be on zeroy's site. If anyone has the time, mind posting it?

completely solved my initial issue, thanks a lot man.

only issue I'm having now is not being able to unlink the object. not sure on the function to do it.
