Hi everyone, I need help with creating rotating doors. I know that I have to create a certain scriptfile for this, but I have no idea what to write in there and where to put that file... edited on Dec. 28, 2006 10:03 am by Slagjoeyoco

You will have to go through the tutorial twice then. Once for each side of the door. You need to trigger a separate script for each side of the door so that it opens opposite the player. Now, the trick will be making it so that the second trigger (to the player) doesn't interfere with the first. When the player activates the first script and walks through the door. The second script will be activated and you need to stop this from happening. I recommend adding something to the script that removes the second trigger until after the first script is run. So, the start of the script will remove the trigger brush from the map (or deactivate it). Then the end of the script will put the trigger brush back in. Or another option is to move the second trigger to a place outside of your map while the script is activated. Then move it back at the end. some scripting info: http://www.doom3world.org/phpbb2/viewtopic.php?t=2562&highlight=script+remove+trigger

the problem is, there are nearly no codes on that website the link refers to the door rotates in one direction only, like a clock so if I want the door to open opposite the player, I would have to write $mydoor.rotateTo('0 -90 0') allright so far, but when it closes again, it spins arround 360°

Are you setting the return to 360 or to 0?

no to 0 Just like this: void rotate_mydoor() { $mydoor.time(1); $mydoor.rotateTo('0 90 0'); sys.wait(3); $mydoor.time(1); $mydoor.rotateTo('0 0 0'); } void rotate_mydoor_back() { $mydoor.time(1); $mydoor.rotateTo('0 -90 0'); sys.wait(3); $mydoor.time(1); $mydoor.rotateTo('0 0 0'); } the second paragraph works only for one direction - that's the problem because I don't want the door to push away the player...

here you go. This will work: Quote: void rotate_mydoor() { $mydoor.time(1); $mydoor.rotateTo('0 -90 0'); sys.wait(3); $mydoor.time(1); $mydoor.rotateTo('0 360 0'); }
