Hello, i've posted a similar question about 1 year ago and eventually found a fix that worked but it seems that it was only in that case.

Basically, I've created a few turrets (4) for upcoming projects. All of them had the exact same issue: Upon exiting the turret, an exception would occur;





This happens exactly when the player is about to leave the turret, just before the player regains control. This is true for AI, any biped. Weird things also happen: If the biped is Killed (unit_kill) then he dies, his body fall and no exception occurs. If through sapien you scroll to have him respawn, no issue again. If you quickly (vehicle_load_magic) the unit and then just as he gets on board and finally assumes control, do (vehicle_unload) then he will get out harmless as long as the turret's rotation has not started.

Here are a couple pictures of both situations:

Just after the enter animation is complete


Beginning of the Exit animation


3~4 frames later, Exception. only halfway through the full exit anim





What fixed my other turret somehow was to move backward the nodes that kept the players to the turret to avoid any intersection with the model. While it somehow worked for it, it doesn't for this one or the others. Also note, none of my turrets use collision models.






Any help appreciated,

This is probably a stupid question, but does it have collision model?

Nope. I have one made for it but am not using it in these test builds.

and for the record since my original post might not be totally clear about it, I tryed moving the driver nodes up 500 units to be 1000% sure that wasn't the issue

You need to have a collision model.

When you add one, the exceptioning should stop.

^ This. If a vehicle does not have a collision model. it will cause exceptions every time you exit it. I'm not sure exactly why this happens, but it is the cause of the issue.

Thanks to both of you, that was it. My guess is I was stupid enough to delete the coll AND move the nodes at the same time which fixed one error while creating the other. Either way, many thanks
