ok in following the tut here for the sliding door i se where you can make it a targeted foor then a trigger use ? to make it slide open? alas i am lost can someone explaing this trigger to me thisiswhat i did
i made a brush from caulk (it was to look like a wall if that matters) the i went to func>door> and selected the angle to 270 .........then i created a trigger use placed over a switch i did by teh way check target in the door section and gave a key =target name value=door1
and then in the trigger i gave it the same value and key
wel i did this wrong i take it becasue it does not work can someone explain teh trigger to me...........also am i readingthe tut right it does not mention a origin brush......i made a sliding door once lol bymistake and it had an origin brush

for the barb wire put a trigger_multiple around the wire and a key setthread value barb_pain . Add this to your script

barb_pain:
$barb volumedamage 10
end

The barb_pain thread should be at the bottom of your script, not just somewhere in between other code

.

You're supposed to see a line from the trigger to the door after pressing ctrl + k.

OMG!!!
sliding doors couldnt be any more simple.
Make your brush that is to be your door.
and make it a func_door
thats it!!!
You dont need triggers for doors in MOH. Why do you think they call it "func_door"? uh, because it works on it own..
(unless you are to open the door from a differant location)
set your angle as you normally would to tell it which direction to slide.

It will slide because you have not added the origin brush

Oh for future referance, there is a barbwire.scr
I used it in my Eye of the Needle map.
