Still having problems

Not unless you make a mirrored 180 degree version on the door or whatnot. ‎  Then it will have the illusion of shutting.

Do you mean the object on the map is copied or a whole other PRM file? It seems like in most instances you'd be able to simply rotate the object on the map.

You have to set your event up that the first leaf of the event opens the door or rotate object 90 degrees, then second leaf makes door disappear, third leaf make mirror door appear , next set timer for three second and fith leaf rotate mirror door 90 degrees to close the door, and lastly leaf six to reset back to leaf 1.

A lot of work for just a simple open and closing of a door :-)
If we could set leaf 1 to open the door. ‎  Leaf 2 to set timer for 3 seconds then a third leaf to just rotate -90 in the first place it would save tons of time, and we would have to make a second object that is a mirror of the first.

Yeah with your editor bug fixes ,I think you would be the one to solve that mystery :-) funny thing , it is just on rotate other axis we can negatively move...... You are probably right about it just being a mere bug. ‎  ‎  ‎  ‎  ‎  ‎  ML

Almost forgot if you want your door to have a sound effect, that a bunch more added leafs.


We can thank todd for the current solution..... He had to make a clock pendalum and for a simple clock that is how he made it swing back and forth.....

HwitVlf might be able to fix that by editing the dialog box. If you made a list of everything like this you'll be more likely to see everything fixed in due time. I don't mess with the editors very much. And fixing their bugs is still something on the horizon for the most part. So far I only made time to fix the major bugs that would not let folks use the tools at all.

There's no reason for not being able to go backwards. That must just be an oversight. If you want a door though, I would suggest modeling one. I've been asking Verdite why he hasn't made a custom door yet for ages. I am interested in how they work myself. It may even be possible to make stairs and things with arbitrary clipping shapes... for instance if its possible to make a drawbridge like door, then you can make proper steps as an object too.

EDITED: And even if the drawbridge doesn't quite work. I will work on making it work properly if someone makes one.
