The topic is my question. This might not be a script, but does anyone know how I can achieve this?

hey tom,
im not that good of a scripter, but for sure it has to be. The script would involve maybe turning the entity (the door) to static.
sorry i cant answer
hope it helps

well you cannot change the door ingame but you can deactivate it.

you need to alter the door script to add activated=1 lines

like adding the following:

:state=11,plrdistfurther=150,activated=1:state=0,activate=0
:activated=1:state=11,sound=put something interesting here,activate=0


the autodoor will hang on state 11 unless you put something in there that brings it back to state 0. like a switch that is like 200 units away.
naturally,both the switch and the trigger zone call the same elevator.

Ok so basically I just need the door to work, then when the player has stepped through it, stop working from then on. I knwo you just gave me that quite detailed, but I still don't understand it. Can someone give me an exact script and explain in what way to apply it to what entity. Basically what I want is:

-Player steps through door onto a trigger zone
-Trigger zone stops door from working from then on
Can someone please help me out here?

ok i got it working.
now first of all for Tom0001 and his one shot permanent shut the door, do the following:
1. open autodoor.fpi in the scriptbank directory using notepad.
2. save the file as autodoor1.fpi
3. edit this file by adding the following line AFTER the last state=3 line

:activated=1:state=11,activate=0

4. save the file, its autodoor1.fpi now, remember?

next you need to edit the door itself by doing the following:
1. go into entity editing mode and select the door.
2. RENAME THE DOOR in the General Name block, like DoorSlam.
3. change the script in the AI Scripts Main block to autodoor1.fpi

next you need to edit the triggerzone script:
1. open plrinzone.fpi script in the scriptbank directory
2. save as plrinzone1.fpi
3. edit the script by changing activateallinzone=1 to activateifused=1
4. save the file, its plrinzone1.fpi now

next you need to edit the triggerzone itself:
1. go into entity editing mode and select the trigger zone.
2. change the script in the AI Scripts Main block to plrinzone1.fpi
3. change the AI Scripts If Used block to the name of your door, in this case, DoorSlam.

last, AND MOST IMPORTANT, you need to put the trigger zone at least a full block away from the door. it seems that the player has a big triggering zone around him and if you put the trigger zone next to the door, you will trigger the slam before you go thru the autodoor.
you will need to fool around with triggerzone placement.

the triggerzone is a ONE SHOT use item, btw, and the door will stay shut forever.

now for others who want a door that can be reopened:

1. add the following 2 lines to autodoor.fpi after the last state=3 line

:state=11,plrdistfurther=150,activated=1:state=0,activate=0
:activated=1:state=11,activate=0

2. save the script as autodoor1.fpi

next rename the door in question to something like DoorSlam and change the main script to autodoor1.fpi

change the plrinzone.fpi script by replacing activateallinzone=1 with activateifused=1 and save it as plrinzone1.fpi

next edit the triggerzone by changing the main script to plrinzone1.fpi and change the If Used block to DoorSlam, your named door.

finally, add a switch and select the AI Automated If Used block as DoorSlam, your named door again.

ok placement:
make sure the switch is at least 2 blocks away from the door.
make sure the triggerzone is at least 2 blocks away from the door.

thats it! and it all works. i tested it.

Strange, my door ended up staying open forever. Maybe it's because it was an autodoor, thus it was still open when I stepped into the triggerzone. Hmm...

move the triggerzone, your triggerzone was too close and it stopped the door in open mode.
the door script only did half of what it does, it opened the door, but you were still too close to the door for it to close before your triggerzone hit.

i used the EXACT SAME DOOR you did and it works.

playerzone? que esta?

a simpler correction would be to edit the script... after the animation is over lock the door...
I am still trying to figure out why you want to put the activated=1 after the state=3... won't make much of a difference, perhaps you could enlighten me.

:state=0,anywithin=75:state=1,setframe=0,sound=$0
:state=1:incframe=0
:state=1,frameatend=0:state=2,coloff
:state=2,anyfurther=80:state=3,sound=$1,colon
:state=3:decframe=0
:state=3,frameatstart=0,activated=1:state=11
:state=3,frameatstart=0:state=0,setframe=0

well activated=1 at the front will be sensed whatever state you are in.
it will take you to state 11 and sit there, which freezes the door shut.
then in the switch version there is another line
:state=11,plrdistfurther and so on that resets the state to 0 and turns on the door again.
it does work.

the key is activated=1 is BY ITSELF as a condition. it will be sensed during any pass thru the loop.
in your code, you will miss the lockup if the door is sitting in state=0

I know that activated is a condition, just as :: is a null condition :p, but what I was trying to say is that the placement won't matter if it is as open ended as that.

the line ":state=3:decframe=0" needs to repeat several times before the door is fully closed, I think this is where you got confused... and that is all I am trying to convey. Even though you place it at the end, the final condition was not met as 'true'. (meaning the door was shut)

Now remove the frameatstart=0 and see what happens...
