Starting with doors closed

[Yippyfn]

Can anyone tell me how to make the new resistance houses start with their doors closed?

sure m8.

create a trigger, fired by "anybody" and place it upon some moron.

Then use the editor-button that says "Show Object ID" and locate the
ID #s of all those houses that ya wanna start with doors closed  

And the trigegr simply reads:


(object 324534) animate [door, 0]; (object 48865) animate [door1, 0]; (object 34.... etc.  


PS. I cant recall if it is 1 or 0 to close them doors - try it fer size m8  

  oh, and if there are more doors in the same house, use "door1", "door2" etc.

hope it helps ya :thumbsup:

Thanks a lot Tomb, I'll try that!

Wait, wait, wait, problem. What do I do if it's a house I've placed in the editor? I tried writing

"this animate [door, 0]"
 
in the house's init line, and then i tried a trigger with the same thing. What do you think?

Well, what happened?  

See if you can get it to work with a house of the same type that is already on the map.   That way you will at least know how many working doors it has and how they are numbered.   You may need door1 even if there is only one door.

Ok, I'll try that.

(object #) animate ["dvere1",1]

Wait, wait, wait, problem. What do I do if it's a house I've placed in the editor?

Then it will most likely be an "editorUpdate_102" object, but even if its not, all ya need
to do is to NAME the building in the "name" field (when creating the object), just like you'd
name a soldier  

And the code would then look like:

BuildingName animate [..... etc]
