Directional and On/off on 1 Motor?

Archive: 4 posts


I'm currently working on a vechile... (did i spell that right? Engrish is hard!)
Anyway, I'm working on a... moving object.... which i want to move to the right and the left. I know this can be done by connecting the motor bolts to directional switches....
The problem is that I want to turn off the motor bolts if the player isn't using the switch:

Example:

Player is using Switch 1: Motor Bolt turns on and rotates to the right

Player is using Switch 2: Motor Bolt turns on and rotates to the left

Player is not using Switch 1 or 2: Motor Bolt is turned off.

Is this possible? If so, how would i be able to do it?

Hook the motor bolts up to a directional three-way switch, then attach the player inputs to winches attached to the three-way switch so that they will pull on three-way switch and change the direction of the motor bolts, but it will stop when neither are being activated by the players.

Or instead of two switches, just use a three-way switch.

Thanks BSprague! I was thinking of using a piston and a cardboard to push the 3 way switches but your wrinch idea is great! You're a life saver!2009-08-21 12:39:00

No problem, but the winch idea isn't mine. They use it in Story Mode, and many people have done it before me.
