I am almost completely new to mapping, so I'm making a sort of "sandbox" map just to see what I can do. I've been able to solve most problems, but I have a few that I just can't figure out. Any help would be appreciated.
The first thing I tried was to make a vending machine that could shoot cans fast enough to kill or injure the player. I got a working machine using a gibshooter, but the cans clip right through the player. Is this just an issue with gibs, and if so is there another entity I could use?
Second, I placed the G-Man in front of a camera, but he doesn't appear on the screen that's linked to the camera. Just to make sure the camera worked, I placed Breen next to him, and he shows up just fine. Am I doing something wrong, or is the G-Man weird like that? (Picture)
And finally, the edges of my skybox are visible. I am not using a 3D skybox. I made this one by creating a box around the map, then hollowing it and applying the sky texture. I hollowed inward and outward - both produce the same glitch. What is going on here? (Picture)
Thank you for any help or insight you can give.
