11-4-08
This by far is our greatest accomplishment so far!  I've been toggling around with this option and it was very hard to get.  I've finally added the option of flying broomsticks! Players can ride brooms and they fly! Yes, fly!
You will enjoy this feature, trust me.  So now I can start working on quidditch!
Message for towcar:
Hey tow, I've managed to finally get this option to work! I'll tell you how I did it because you seemed to have stuggled as well doing this:
I made a bone with fragmotion called "mount" and put it in the broom mesh. I made a bone called "R_Hand" as well (just in case). I then moved the broom high on it's y axis so that it's flying. Then, I put it in the GE and made it an actor. I set it as "actor can be ridden" and set it's enviornment mode to "flying". I put it in the zone as an NPC and set two waypoint that are connected to it. Basically I made a waypoint A and B for it. Then I can freely roam!

Holy, nicely solved man. I was just about to ask how you did it lol.
Yeah now reading it, I understand it now, that's really awesome. That's cool how you figured that out.
Yet if I undertstand it properly then, it means the broom is always flying, and at a always same certain height... or does the pg Up and Pg Down control flight height?

It can use pg up and down as well to go higher or lower.

lol tow glad to be your hero.
Those brooms were from the first modeler of the team (and the first developer). Though we've lost contact with him. But I thank tow because he's been the developer that has been here for the longest period of time. He was the second developer hired.
