func_movelinear problem

[fr33m4n119]

hi guys,

i don't know why but my func_movelinear don't want to spawn at the position i want
in fact whatever i put for "Start Position" (like 5 or -3), the func_movelinear is still at 0 position

the entity is working when i call it with a func_button
but for the spawn position, actually it's a mystery !

thx

Isnt StartPosition a value between 0 and 1 ?

1 being the end. So 0.5 would be half way

Yes, if the values you have entered are distances in units, then that's the problem.

The giveaway is the fact that the full range is '0 to 1', so anywhere between has to be a fraction...

|Start| 0__.1__.2__.3__.4__.5__.6__.7__.8__.9__1 |End|

i'm sorry, i don't understand how it works
actually, nothing is working.
whatever i specified for options to my func_movelinear (Move Distance, Move Direction and Start Position (like 0.9 for example), the entity is always at the same place

Are you using a template to spawn it? If so it's spawn position is relative to the template position and you will need to move it to it's start position after spawning it. Not sure why else you would be having issues.
