Raising/lowering objects

[mrmanmrman 0]

Totally forgotten how to do this, used to know. I need to know how i would lower an object (so it goes below ground). For example with the resistance bridge object its quite high when its placed ontop of the ground, i want to lower it so the bridge surface is accessable from land (ie on the side of a hill)

Actually, for an in depth..

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">this setpos [(getpos this select 0), (getpos this select 1), -1]

Select 0 I think is N/S, I dunno, and select 1 is E/W I think.

The final one (-1) is how much you want it below ground or above ground

-2 will put it 2 metres below ground, and a normal 2 will put it 2 metres above ground.

Though you maybe shoulda searched before posting this ;)

Bah, you people and your shortcuts .  I always got into the habit of addin the z part of the line

this setpos [getpos this select 0, getpos this select 1, (getpos this select 2) + 10]

Getpos this select 0 = x coordinates = East - West

Getpos this select 1 = x coordinates = North - South

Getpos this select 2 = x coordinates = Depth - Elevation

All changes are relative.

Yes but if it's a plane or something already in the air, and you add that, it'll only go + or - from it's current position

Ah yes, forgot to add that it is relative.
