L4D2 Hammer Trigger Spawn help

[Kirkreng]

Ohai ther. So recently i have been playing around with the L4D2 hammer, and I decided to make my own campaign. But I have no experience in map making in source(or map making altogether for that matter).

 

Anyhow what i want is to create a trigger thingy that spawns a tank when a player walks through a certain point. But I don't know how. Help is appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

It helps to learn about inputs and outputs. They are the technical parts. I don't know much about mapping for L4D in particular, but I/O's apply to all Source games. Read this. Also, read about Left 4 Dead 2 creation in general, and, of course, Triggers.

I'l do that, thanks!

The Valve Developer Wiki is an excellent resource for Source engine mapping for games like Team Fortress 2, etc.

 

http://www.interlopers.net is also a great website with tutorials for Source mapping and so on.

 

Have fun!
