<h1>Buttons that opens a door</h1> <div class="level1"> <p> Today I (xtron) will teach you (the reader) how to make lets say press 3buttons and a door opens, or press 2buttons and a secret bookshelf opens. </p> <p> First off you will be needing THE DOOR! </p> <p> <b>THE DOOR:</b> </p> <p> Press on entities (7) > Doors > Choose the door of your liking and place it out on your map. Change the name of your door to door1. </p> <p> Now if you want it be unlock itself when you pressed those magic buttons you will need to lock it!. </p> <p> Click on the door you just created > Entity > Check the Lock box. </p> <p> Now you're done with adding the door, lets add some buttons then!. </p> <p> <b>THE BUTTONS:</b> </p> <p> Press on entities (7) > Gameplay > Press on button_simple and place out how buttons you want the player to press and rename the buttons to your liking, for example: button1, button2 , button3 etc… </p> <p> Now you're done with adding the buttons, we can finally go to the scripting part! yeeey!. </p> <p> <b>THE SCRIPT:</b> </p> <p> Lets say that you want the player to press 4buttons and then a door unlocks itself and opens a bit. </p> <p> Add this to your void OnStart() </p> <pre class="code cpp">  SetLocalVarInt<span class="br0">(</span>"Var1", <span class="nu0">0</span><span class="br0">)</span><span class="sy4">;</span>

When the map loads Var1 will start with a count on 0 ( SetLocalVarInt("var1", 0); ). Everytime you press a button the funcs will </p> <p> turn active and it adds 1 to the Var1 count, so if you press button1 Var1 will go from 0 to 1 and then you press button2 and Var1 will go </p> <p> from 1 to 2 and so on until it reaches count 4 then func5 will occur and SetSwingdoorLocked will happen and PlaySoundAtEntity. </p> <p> I hope you understand it and if you got any questions or requests on what I should show or how I should make my tutorials please send a </p> <p> PM on Frictionalgames forum and I'll be glad to change it. </p> <p> <u>Thanks for reading!</u> </p> <p> <em>by xtron</em> </p> </div>
