If they open to the east and to the west, use 0 for the right one, and 180 for the left one, otherwise use 90 and 270.
If you want to see a soft movement, create the 2 doors as script object and use a script like this
Code: Select all
main:
level.door1stat = 0
level.door1range = 60.0
end
opendoor:
$opendoortrigger nottriggerable
thread opendoor1
thread opendoor2
end
opendoor1:
local.t = 0.0
for(local.i = 0; local.i <= level.door1range; local.i++) {
local.t = (level.door1range / -2 + local.i) / level.door1range
$door1 time (local.t * local.t)
if (level.door1stat == 0) {
$door1 moveSouth 1
} else {
$door1 moveSouth -1
}
$door1 waitmove
}
end
opendoor2:
local.t = 0.0
for(local.i = 0; local.i <= level.door1range; local.i++) {
local.t = (level.door1range / -2 + local.i) / level.door1range
$door2 time (local.t * local.t)
if (level.door1stat == 0) {
$door2 moveSouth -1
} else {
$door2 moveSouth 1
}
$door2 waitmove
}
wait 1
if (level.door1stat == 0) {
level.door1stat = 1
} else {
level.door1stat = 0
}
$opendoortrigger triggerable
end
$door1 and $door2 are just the targetnames of the script_object doors, door1range is the distance the door moves when opened. For opening use moveWest, for closing use moveEast, or moveNorth and moveSouth.
The trigger for opening/closing has the targetname opendoortrigger. I know, it's a bit uhm..long
but you might try it and play around with the parameters. No Sci-Fi doors opens with a constant speed

It's got to be 90
. What do you mean it doesn't work?
You can adjust the distance the door slides by using the 'lip' key/value. To have the door slide further into the wall you need a negative lip value, for example lip / -32.
ok

1 ?

You can use every grid size you want to use, as long as the door is not totally hidden in the wall after you've opened it.
Changing the grid size does not change the world units. If the door has a width of 64 units, use a lip value of 60 for example.
thx
