Anyone know how to manipulate a door to become a drawbridge?

Give the bridge an origin, that's for the rotating point. Give the bridge and the origin a targetname.

Use this in the .scr (the values are in degrees):

$target rotatexup (value) // This will rotate the x up
$target rotatexdown (value) // This will rotate the x down

You can also use other axisses ofcourse like rotatey and rotatez

As an example, you can have a look at my pegasus bridge

To do that you will need to make it a script_object .

There is a small drawbridge in this tutorial map that you can copy.

At0miC - Is this for a manually operated or automatic bridge?

I am trying to use this like a door where it can be manually opened downwards but then closes back upwards after a period of time.

If you want it straight up and down then you can do it like a door but if you want it to rotate down sorry can't be done without a script .

I think what Bdbodger is trying to say is, if you want it to move streight down and streight up, you can use a func_door. But, a func_rotatingdoor can not be used as a drawbridge.
