blocking a door with a lever

Recommended Posts

Just got Biker's stove model in game, the door opens and I have a def attached handle for it.

 

The stove body has an L shaped bracket that the lever goes behind. I want the lever to block to door opening unless the player has flipped the lever.

 

I know this has been done but can't recall which map. Does it require some kind of frob peer or scripting? I thought the physics would just take care of it.

 

I'd ultimately like to have the lever spawn attached to the door and ready to go so we don't get weird map issues with unaware authors.

I'm not certain but if you mean like a latch or bolt that works like a real bolt to block a door then I did something like that in Heart on the door at the top of the spiral stairs. This is what I did:

 

Create a small brush and assign it:

 

atdm:moveable_junk_base

frob 0

bind <doorname>

 

I made mine a small metal plate but I guess it could be invisible caulk I'm not sure.

Position it on the face of the door that opens out and block it with eg, another mover that can be slid across to obstruct it. I made a tiny patch bolt and made it a door with silent opening etc. I also put an iron loop staple on the door for it to slide into but that is just cosmetic - only the moveable junk blocks the door when it hits the mover obstruction.

      Finally got my PC back from the shop after my SSD got corrupted a week ago and damaged my motherboard. Scary stuff, but thank goodness it happened right after two months of FM development instead of wiping all my work before I could release it. New SSD, repaired Motherboard and BIOS, and we're ready to start working on my second FM with some added version control in the cloud just to be safe!

      I've updated the articles for your FMs and your author category at the wiki. Your newer nickname (DeTeEff) now comes first, and the one in parentheses is your older nickname (Fieldmedic). Just to avoid confusing people who played your FMs years ago and remember your older nickname. I've added a wiki article for your latest FM, Who Watches the Watcher?, as part of my current updating efforts. Unless I overlooked something, you have five different FMs so far.

      I've finally managed to log in to The Dark Mod Wiki. I'm back in the saddle and before the holidays start in full, I'll be adding a few new FM articles and doing other updates. Written in Stone is already done.
