Create traffic lights

Traffic lights :) outputs and inputs

I think that you see in Half-Life 2 model of traffic lights? о_0 But it's simple model... Here I tell you how make a realy working lights.

What we need to make? о_0

• Model props_c17\Traffic_Light001a.mdl prop_dynamic

• color lights: point_spotlights on each lights =).

• model properties:

Disable Shadows=Yes

Collide with world=Not solid (if you don't do this, light does not appear in game).

• one logic_auto, two logic_relay.

In details...

Time. Traffic lights lights for different time. Because road can be wide and big, can be small. If road wide then lights lights longer.

Red and Green - 30 seconds

yellow - 3 sec

outputs!

1. give targetnames for each of 3 point_spotlight with names: "greenLight" "redLight" "YellowLight". 1 logic_relay call traffLightRelay1, 2 - traffLightRelay2.

2. select logic_auto

3. in outputs

	My Output	Target Entity	Target Input	Parameter	Delay	Only Once
	OnMapSpawn	traffLightRelay1	Trigger		0.00	Yes	Turn on this! :D

4. Select traffLightRelay1.

5. in outputs this:

	My Output	Target Entity	Target Input	Parameter	Delay	Only Once
	OnTrigger	yellowLight	LightOn		28.00	No	yellow in 28 sec
	OnTrigger	redLight	LightOff		30.00	No	Red
	OnTrigger	greenLight	LightOn		30.00	No	Green
	OnTrigger	yellowLight	LightOff		30.00	No	Turn off yellow
	OnTrigger	traffLightRelay2	Trigger		32.00	No	Continue in second part

6. Select traffLightRelay2.

7. In Outputs:

	My Output	Target Entity	Target Input	Parameter	Delay	Only Once
	OnTrigger	greenLight	LightOff		28.00	No	green blink
	OnTrigger	greenLight	LightOn		28.50	No	blink
	OnTrigger	greenLight	LightOff		29.00	No	blink
	OnTrigger	greenLight	LightOn		29.50	No	blink
	OnTrigger	greenLight	LightOff		30.00	No	End blink. Turn off green
	OnTrigger	yellowLight	LightOn		30.00	No	Turn off yellow
	OnTrigger	redLight	LightOn		32.00	No	turn on red
	OnTrigger	traffLightRelay1	Trigger		32.00	No	activate first part
	OnTrigger	yellowLight	LightOff		32.00	No	we forget turn off yellow! :D

It is all! ;).

I make schematics for this chaos:)
