THIS IS NOT A CRAFT

Somebody metioned troop deployment by teleport, so I have modded the code from my 3DSniper to do just that.

A yellow rectangle is created by firing the gun and this can be moved to any point you wish. If you fire, three randomly armed (they have an intentional tendancy to get Assault rifles, for those of you looking at the code) coalition soldiers appear and the teleport disapears.

It works fine, but there is one feature I tried to add but it doesn't function. All the code is there, it's turned on, but it does nothing. It is meant to create only skeletons when you try to teleport too close to a brain, to balance the ability to go anywhere.

Yes it's expensive, but how much does three armed soldiers cost?

You might want to try checking if the actor is in the Brains group instead of checking PresetName.
Also, the problem is that you are asking if the PresetName is simultaneously Brain Robot and Brain Case, which doesn't apply to any actor in existence, let alone a Brain Unit.
Also, the bullet script incorrectly references the ACrab 3D Sniper instead of Teleporter.

I updated it to use OR as opposed to AND for the check for the brains, it still doesn't work. Any Ideas? Also I'll do the group teleporter.

Make a series of these teleports with different soldier types but still random armaments. Nicer sprites would also be nice. Good show, GREAT JOB! (srsly tho this things is cool)

That would be your problem, since you have edited basegame files. Outside of the scope of accepted modding practices.
