will be posting the solution on a thread that I started on Wavelength.

There are three issues here:
1) Collision representation for the bullet
In HL2, they are point sized. You can also make them out of
boxes or fully general vcollides.
2) Velocity of the bullet
In HL2 the velocity is infinite - they travel instantaneously
until they hit something (si
but bullets in HL2 and HL1 already are tracelines .. like everyone
have been saying, they are instantaneous, and if you think that's bad,
then this is why people want to make it more bullet-like.

Just create an entity and have it trace from it's current position to
the next position (current + velocity * dt + gravity * dt) each tick.
Unless you want the entity to have a physics hull or something, then
you'll need to increase the max allowable speed. You can do that by
modifying:

Once again, bullets are instantaneous in HL1/2. In other words, there isn't
really a bullet. It just checks if at the center of your crosshair you're
pointing at someone, if you are, it's a hit.

Actually, the crossbow is set to the max inches per second which is 2500 (I

Bullets travel as 33600 inches per second.

Ask Mr. Math...

I think the easiest way to fix this would be to have the camera rotate
with the vehicle turning. Has anyone tried to do this??

Look at the crossbow code. The rebar bolt already does this. When you

Not sure if you read any of the peeking threads I had sent to the list, but
it was basically the same problem.
If you move the ViewOffsetSet on the x,y vector you need to be continuously
updating because the x,y vector can change (z can also but this is used for

Server plugins ONLY run on the server. You can't check for files on
the client using a server plugin.
The only way you can check for files on the client is to create

Not really. Bullets are instantaneous in HL.
My understanding is you'd have to make an entity representing it, render it,
etc, and then apply physics. The problem with this is there is a maximum speed
based on how often the position is updated. The end result is it would go to
