How to make a vehicle move?

[B. Mills]

So I'm trying to get a forklift prop to move (forklift_new.mdl)

I've been fiddling with
prop_dynamic
and I also placed a path with
path_track
but how do I make them interact, I can't seem to connect the two since nothing is moving and the prop model doesn't appear at its beginning but around the end of the path but rotated in a odd angle.

As you might have guessed I'm new to SDK.

Thanks!

btw I used this tutorial https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wvpwQRlKuHE and can't get it to work

Try using this tutorial here, In the video he uses a block instead of a prop so idk if the prop will work. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rEsOv6CBHaE

Hi Dave, thanks for the reply. I already came across this video before. This guy is usually helpfully thorough when he explains, but as you said he doesn't mention using a prop_dynamic :/

Okay I finally made it work with the first video's method, and I also got the timing with a trigger down. Now I must figure out how to make the turns more smooth, right now it looks very zig-zaggy.
