Hi Matthew et al; well to be honest, though I think I know why the prob happened, I still don't understand why it should have, if that makes any sense... <smile>

It arose because of a tracebox test to see whether the entity being pushed was a part of the world or a player or monster entity. So I was testing to see whether the trace_ent != world and if it didn't, then move it and cause it some damage. Anyway, from the error, I believe that it was the damage part that it didn't like, but the test to see if the entity was a part of the world or not should have taken care of it. So in essence, it was seeing the door / triggers and such as being entities that weren't part of the world which they should have been. And I don't know why this is, since I've done this test before and it's worked just the way I'd expect. So I had to incorporate another method along with it, which detected if the entity had health, which I was trying to stay away from doing for several reasons, regarding adding to the feature later, but I've since found a way to work around it successfully. What I don't understand, is that the same basic testing routine is in play in the light saber and I don't have the same issue happening. So I just don't get it. I find it strange...

Anyway, that's that, so any thoughts would as always, sure be appreciated. <smile> Thanks for the note and I'll let you know what I find, and please do the same if you would. Oh, I can also make my code available if you'd like. Lemme' know... <smile>
  Talk with ya soon!...

Smiles,

That's great news -- I'd be interested to know what the problem was.  If
it's a coding issue in QC then it'd be useful to warn people of it in
future.  If it's something else, it could be a bug at our end...

bye just now,
