hey im makin this one map where your always mooving from one room to another. My question is how do i set a time limit for how long they can be there, like i want them to be teleported to a room and they can only stay there for like 25 secs, then after 25 secs they get teleported to another room. o and before they teleport how do i make them drop thier guns

You have already asked this two days ago. Make a trigger_push and in it's properties, set delay before trigger to 25.

That is all.

trigger_teleports should be able to be triggered in many of the same ways as trigger_pushes. As for weapons, I dunno.

i think a weapon_strip gets rid of the weapons

i want trigger teleport to teleport you after 20 secs i put the delay before trigger as 20 but you still get teleported once you land on it, i just want to teleport to be active once 25 secs go by, or the teleport to move into the room however it works just as long as you get teleported after 20 secs is over

Make the teleport one big brush over the floor.

One problem: All the people in the room will be moved to the same spot at the EXACT same time. *PAIN IN THE ARSE*

True...
OK how about divvying up the floor into many brushes, all of them teleports, and then having them go to different entities? (Or can you set multiple destinations for a single teleport?)

I thought of that too. But if it's divvied up, you can continue walking from trigger_teleport to trigger_teleport and you'll never be teleported! AHH!

Do trigger_teleports take a second to act then? Hmmm. OK, is there some method of holding players, or stopping their movement? There must be; it happens in HL and CS I thought... OK I can't find anything but this is a very perfunctory search.

It's not that they take a second to trigger, they were set to Delay before trigger = 25

What I meant was, if you could keep walking from teleport to teleport (as you said) and not be teleported, well, wait, I've lost myself Why would you be able to keep walking between them?

Because you won't be teleported.

I don't understand. Do teleports teleport you instantly? Or is there a bit of a pause before you jump? If the former, then there shouldn't be a problem. If the latter then could you not implement some kind of brush to stop you moving, then allow the teleports to do their thang?

trigger_teleport teleports you immediately. But the whole idea was to have it teleport after 25 seconds, so it was set to 25 sec delay. That creates a new problem: All the players in the room will be teleported to the same spot at the same time. The solution was supposed to have many different teleports (where each one was too small for two people to fit in). BUT THEN THERE IS ANOTHER PROBLEM: If there are many trigger_teleports that have 25 second delay, you have time to walk around. Each time you enter a new trigger_teleport, that brings the 25 sec delay BACK TO ZERO.

That said, I do not think this is a possible thing to make, or at least not practical.

Ah right, it's not triggered from the time that the map starts.... get you now. Hmmm. That does make it more difficult.

God yes, I'm a strange person. I didn't get it before though. Is there a way to trigger them to activate 25 seconds after them map begins, rather than 25 seconds after someone wanders in?
