is it possible to move a trigger here is a quick basic example:

example = getent( "example " , "targetname" );
example waittill( "trigger", player );
example MoveZ(500, 2);


anytime i try to move a trigger it doesnt work. is there a certain way this must be done?

You can move by subtracting the 3 different xyz values from the origin, like:

self.origin += ( 0, 0, -10000 );

ok that worked but  i have an other question how would you link the trigger to a model.
i pretty much need my trigger to move with model.

trigger EnableLinkTo();
trigger LinkTo(model);

Then just move the model with script, it will move with the model.

trigger EnableLinkTo();
trigger LinkTo(model);

Then just move the model with script, it will move with the model.

thats what it was i forgot the to enable

cheers!

stange, i never needed "enablelinkto()"?

thats the exact way i was trying it at first   If you try to link trigger to model and try to move just the model then  the trigger gets left behind, trigger doesnt move with model.
 jbird said enablelinkto();
and that worked perfect when i tried that.
i think you need it if u link a trigger to something and try to move it.

maybe its coz mine was linking a "model" to a model or something. Was for the hand on the switch for power in tranzit

Harry from what i've seen you only need EnableLinkTo() on a trigger anything else can be linked no problem

makes sense i guess, triggers are funny with "origin" too

So why did you mark his reply as best answer when i gave the answer? Just wondering.

Because ur solution just teleports the trigger instantly, whereas mine will allow it to move with the object.

He never mentioned that he wanted to move the trigger with anything, just that he wanted to move it though.

Yes really. He did not originally mention that he wanted to move the trigger with a model:
