My door works fine so far.. they work 100% if you set them with health so that it takes a shot to open them instead of a trigger... no side effects that we've found yet. They really suck if you have them just as func_door.. player gets reset about 64 squares in opposite direction.. Trigger works 95%.. issue there is if player stands in trigger area the door opens and closes, open and closes.. its real annoying.. but if you set the health flag to any 1+ value.. they work 100% ;)

Ok here is what I did. Built a small map. Placed a solid wall in the middle. I did not hollow the wall. Of course I added some lights.
1. I placed a Trigger_Teleport on the side with the player start position. (you can size this Trigger. I sized it about the size of a door, fairly thin and very close to the wall.
2. I placed a Misc_Teleporter_Dest on the other side of the wall. Did the Ctrl+K to link them together. Don't get it to close to the wall.
3. At first it was flush with the floor but my feet were stuck and I couldn't move. I moved it up about 4 small grids.
4. Compiled and ran the bsp. I was able to pass to the other side.
5. Created another one so I could get back just reversing the Trigger_Teleport and the Misc_Teleporter_Dest.

Looks as if it will work.

good thinking... I was just experimenting with those teleports yesterday for the first time.

Do you know the difference between the target_position and the Misc_Teleporter_Dest? The trigger_teleport mentions that you should use the target.

I tried all the combinations and the one above is all that I could get to work. I was browsing the radiant manual and found a little passage in there to do with teleporters. Of course that was for Q3 I think but finally was able to put together something that worked. To be sure I built another new test map and slapped the basics in there to test and it worked fine.

Hmm...teleporters -- interesting...I'll have to give that a try.

As for doors -- I've been messing with them and they seem to work ok? I've got a map with a sniper-tower that has a lens-like 'door' that you have to hit a switch to open, and then another switch, than when pressed, causes the person in the tower to be crushed. I'd share it with you folks but I don't know where to host it?

BTW -- does anyone know how to get the 'TOGGLE' switch on a door to work?

If you are talking about hosting your map I can host it. Send to redrummdk@tds.net. My mail service can take anything up to about 1.5 mb.
When you get something new post it in the Custom Map Releases forum and then we can discuss on how to make it available to the SOF2 community. Be sure to include screenie and readme in zip file. If you haven't already check out my site for hosting custom levels.

I figured another way to do the one way wall... this one uses a clear texture but you could sub in anything you wanted.. you could even add a main wall in front with _nodraw, and texture the front, then use this trick to get the one way happening.. check it out.. bsp and map included Here :)

Cool. Tried it out. Looks good. I built a room outside my main level to check out the teleporter.
Put a couple of posts at the sides because it is invisible. Put the misc_teleporter_dest quite a ways from the trigger in the main level. It worked great. Later I moved the destination up to a higher plane and still worked great. Probably go with that in the new level.

Hi all,

It take a Hole night but i found a good method,

1) Make a Wall with any Solid Texture.
2) right click in the 2d-view on your wall and make it Non-colliding
3) Now copy your wall once and put it exactly before, or behind,
your first wall.
4) Change your 2d view so that u see the side u want to walk trugh.
put a simple Patch Mech on it. its allready with your first choosen texture.

U will have a wall looking on bouth sides same, but u can pass one side, also possible with non solid texture on the side u walk in.


peAce!
