apology unnecessary but appreciated and accepted :) G-Flex.

AlvinD knows me as a few months old virgin to UnrealEd, so i hope i didn't waste any of his time with my lame suggestion. i should have placed a disclaimer on my post saying: "this wont do most of the things you were looking for help with, but heres a lame newbie suggestion"

yes you could say i was guessing, however; i found it satisfactory to my desired effect of jumping into my shipping container hanging off the ground, 1 shaketrigger of 50radius/8vert/256roll in middle, and 2 of 50r/12v/512roll at ends ~sort of~ gave the illusion that the shipping container was being unbalanced by the players weight, of course it is as solid and static as a gravity defying block of steel when one jumps back out. just trying to contribute

About the cage idea - what about making low railings around the npc and the textures on the wall that would altogether look like a cage?

One of the most egregious problems was that you could have the situation like this:

_____ some horizontal container
_ bench

With the container remaining on the bench despite the fact that 3/4 of it are off the bench and should fall down.

I wonder if there were better physics in other (later) UT1 games? Aside from the situation described above, the other thing that bothered me was the insta rigor mortis.
