Talk:Logic case

Error with ambient_generic

I have one of these logic cases with 8 unique ambient_generic entities attached to it and a button that randomly selects a case. On all of the case events, they stop all the ambient_generics and after a delay of 1 second plays its own sound. When compiled, the logic_case ignores the option to stop the sounds but still delays by 1 second the option to play the sound. The other logic_cases in my map work properly. It is only this one with I am having trouble. --MongoTheMad 23:11, 31 July 2009 (UTC)

If I understand you correctly, you're trying to stop an ambient_generic from playing a sound. This won't work because of bugs with the ambient_generics which can only be fixed by a programmer. --TomEdwards 08:13, 1 August 2009 (UTC)

It still doesn't make sense. It works just fine in my other map, but when a logic_case is involved, it doesn't work.--MongoTheMad 17:51, 1 August 2009 (UTC)

Test Value

What is that? How do I use it, and what for? This is not the only entity that 'tests' things, could I get an explanation on all of these? --Mr.p.kiwi 04:27, 30 July 2011 (PDT)

It means that the input value (or random value) is compared against all available cases. Also, please sign your comments. Solokiller 04:15, 30 July 2011 (PDT)

First of all, sorry for not signing, slipped my mind. Secondly, how does it compare things, and for what use? --Mr.p.kiwi 04:27, 30 July 2011 (PDT)

It compares a value against up to 16 values, and depending on which it is equal to a corresponding output is fired. For example, if the case keyvalues have the numbers 1 through 16, and the input value is 7, then case 07 is equal and fires the output OnCase07. if it isn't a value between 1-16 then the output OnDefault is fired.

Moving props with logic_case

I'm was thinking about how to add a moving Truck with dynamic light to my map. It mainly should look like the moving cars, appearing at random times on de_nuke (CS:S).

It's dark allover, so the Truck needs his lights turned on ;D. After decompiling de_nuke, i found out that they used a [logic_case] together with an logic_time to make the cars appereance totally random!

Now i wonder how to create such a moving prop without a func_tracktrain or so.
