Lately I've been seeing lots of "just teleport an actor underground and pin it" type stuff, I understand how I'd pin it, but how would I go about teleporting it? |

To "teleport" something, simply change its position variable (Pos) to the desired position. |

so would it be like Code: function Create(self) if parent.MovableObject:IsActor then Set pos.Y(123456) end end |

What is Set? And remember, capitalization matters. |

It would be "pointer.Pos = Vector(<x value>,<y value>)". It's a vector. Not a single number. |

Furthermore, it's a value, and not a function like you are calling it with the brackets. Read the guides. Cricket made one too. |

I'm already basing it off of stuff I've learned from what you've posted. I guess there are just some things I'm not getting |

Position is a property. In most scripts, "self" is a pointer to the object that the script is attached to. To call properties on objects, you do the following: Code: pointer.property To change properties: Code: pointer.property = newValue So, Code: self.Pos = Vector(0,0) |
