No caps please buddy! ;)

Anyway, if your definition of "activate" is what I think it is, then no, there is no "button" to activate a trigger. You have to set the trigger. Whether through coding or the mapmodel itself doesn't matter (either way works ;) (though coding works better :) )).

You have to assign the same level trigger to the elevator mapmodel and entity! I haven't experimented much with elevators so I'd advise you to look at some maps in sandbox that might have some elevators.

Hope that helps!

Arc :geek:

BTW look at the Snow Rpg in Sandbox. That has elevators! ;) Have fun!

Coding for doors is the easiest thing in the world.

assign the door 12 trigger type and 1 for trigger level

assign key trigger type 11 and trigger 1 and that's it!.

And make sure you're in single player mode not co-op edit. Triggers won't work in co-op edit... ;)

right for doors i think trigger 10
trigger level 1 is the best i find

doors is easy but the one thing to remember make sure you edit in single player

What Klimyriad meant was for opening doors without keys:

well.... okay. I wasn't really correcting you, just making sure tata wasn't confused. Both you and Gr1m are right, but you were talking about different things, so I didn't want any confusion. :) ;)
