Copying ideas is serious business.

Didn't Hurricaaane make that sphere model?

Eh what? Thats something totally different,and I didn't copy his idea,like I said I thought of it one night.Huricaaane didn't model that sphere,it's in Portal.

Can someone point me to the model name, then?

models/props/sphere.mdl

with skin 0

I mean the rings around the front of it, where it emits the "antigrav field" or whatever. You're saying that you and Hurricaaane developed the same exact appearance of the sphere independently?

The ring is a model in Portal too:

models/props/light_rail_wall_emitter.mdl

I don't even know what Huricaaanes one looks like! Someone post a pic of it?

On a different note,here's a new device I made that will be used in my map,put it near a rocket turret and it will override its AI so it will attack sentrys.

Have you noticed how funky the physics relationship is between rockets and turrets? Often times the turret flies and spins really weirdly.

Hmm,the Rocket Turret doesn't like obeying ai_relationships for some reason,the ordinary turrets work fine with it,even with SetTarget the Rocket Turret will hunt me down if all the turrets are gone.

Make a math_counter that starts at the same number of turrets in the level, and each turret has an OnTipped output to subtract 1 from the counter, and when the counter reaches zero have the turret disable.

I already have something like that setup,but if one of the turrets go down and it can't see the others it attacks me,sometimes it doesn't even want to look at the other turrets,it wants me.The SetTarget is kinda buggy on that rocket turret.If only the ai_relationships worked properly with the rocket turret like they do with the sentries,it would be fine.

I'll work on the Sentries instead,the Rocket Turret doesn't work properly for what I need to do,may not be much gameplay addition from changing the AI of turrets but good for a lol.
