I have a small scripting problem

[Horizon]

I have a small scripting problem.

I have used a boom gate (Addon) in a map that I'm making that starts closed and I need it to open with a trigger rather then me having to go to it and operating it myself.

I have read a tutorial on scripts (using action) but still cant work it out.
Can anyone lend a hand?


Thanks

animations within addons are usually controlled using the animate command.

you need to find out the name of the gate in the config, and then set its animation phase to 0 or 1.

you may need to de-pbo the addon to find the information, for which you will need this.

And the trigger would be

Condition:  as you like
On Activation:   the animate stuff you have discovered

That boom addon is that the kkb Gate you are talking about?

If so,
name_of_gate animate ["arm", 1]  to open
and
name_of_gate animate ["arm", 0] to close
