Hi anyone knows how can i turn off a MechCamera by frobing a lever or a switch? and how can a Camera make a Mechbot appear when in Alarm mode?

simply just CD link from lever to camera to make it turn on and off by frobbing it.
for teleporting, you could just place robot in blueroom and make teleport trap in the place where you want it to teleport. Then CD link from camera to teleport trap, and then CD link from teleport trap to robot.
Altho you might want to involve relay trap between camera and teleport trap so the robot wont teleport every time the camera gets alerted

The Control device link doesn´t work and that´s why i have placed this question.

You also need to turn the lever on:
Tweq > JointState: AmimS: On.
The first frob in game should turn the camera off.

Oh bugger, the MechCamera doesn´t make the mech bot appear, and i have cd link, what must i do to make it work?
wasn´t out there a mission when a mech camera sounded the alarm a mechbot suddenly awakes from its disable state? is this possible to do?

Sabotage at Soulforge (miss16) has that setup in abundance.
There are two scripts in miss16.osm: BotStationManager and BotStationBot. Information about the scripts is available (
http://www.thiefmissions.com/telliamed/scripts2.html#botstationbot) here. For an example in miss16.mis, look for object #1177 and follow the links.

but teleport trap does work if you link camera to trigger it :confused: you sure you have your cd link with teleport trap and robot set right? or any of these links set the right way around?
I'd recommend to do it the miss16 way though. It's bit more realistic to have robot walk to place instead of having it appear from thin air :cheeky:

Thanks Rsoul, found the solution ;)

Sabotage at Soulforge also had those bots in "garages" so being behind a closed door would prevent the bot from being alerted when the cameras are not.
