Script trouble - door unlocking.

[Phantom_Spider]

Thanks to your help and software I have managed to create a semi-complete game in which the objective is to collect all the coins from the different levels to unlock the last level.
Thanks for everything
I have some script that's giving me a bit of trouble though, and I was wondering if you could help me out please?
I have a script that asks you to collect ten coins and when you do it unlocks a door to the next part.
The trouble is when talking to the console the door is unlocked - even if you don't collect any coins.
I've tried placing the "trigger 23 1" in the npc1-4 but I cannot get it to work either way.
I know it's probably dead simple but it's really bugging me
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for this.

Before I look at your code (since that stuff hurts my brain ) here is some stuff that might be helpful:
viewtopic.php?f=15&t=114
viewtopic.php?f=15&t=102

What trigger type are you starting the door at? Maybe you should try making it trigger type 11 to start off with. Have you seen this list?

I think we need a volunteer to make a key unlocking doors tutorial Take care and let us know how it goes!

Thanks I've taken a look at the links you posted but I can't find anything that helps :\
And yes it is set to 11

When I get this working properly I'll happily make a tutorial though
