What do you want your entity to do in the zone?

This
  uses a remote door named 'myremotedoor' but you can name the door whatever you want.

If you have one on the other side of the door using activatetarget=0 instead of activatetarget=1 then it will close it again when they pass thru.

Make sure you use a remote door that is assigned the doorremote.fpi script for it's AIMAIN


EDIT
Oooops!
I just noticed you wanted an entity to trigger the zone, not the player as in the script I gave you above.

Just relace the plrwithinzone with entitywithinzone, and you don't need the outof zone check if you want it to only happen once.
Like this
.

Either way, it is as simple as setting a remote door for the target, and then activating it when something goes in the zone.

Unfortunately, the code for entitywithinzone is just a todo note, atm it will not work

I'd change the world, but I don't have the source code
R.I.P. heltor, we will miss you

Thank you Conjured Entertainment for the help, but it not work. Maybe zeza is right (the code for entitywithinzone is just a todo note, atm it will not work). Where must be put your script, on the Trigger Zone? I try it, but no.

Option 1:
Yes, it is just a todo note, however, if memory serves correctly the command "anywithinzone" is not a todo note and should work fine in place of entitywithinzone.

Option 2:
If you're wanting a specific entity to act as the activator (meaning the player MUST put that specific entity into the zone for the door to open and any other entity will not work) then you will need to use "anykeywithinzone" which checks for if the zone's "UseKey" specified entity is within the zone... now, we all know that triggerzones don't have that option, but you can get around that (just as I did a long time ago with my puzzle game) by making your own "zone" and specifying the UseKey in it's FPE file. It's a long-winded process, but it works.

Sure thing!

Go into this folder: "Files/entitybank/_markers"

You will see a bunch of files, some related to lights, some related to zones.

Scroll down until you find the following TWO files:
Trigger Zone.bmp
Trigger Zone.fpe

Copy those two files and paste them into that same folder. This will give you copies of those files. Now rename the copies to "My Zone.bmp" and "My Zone.fpe"

Now, you should be able to boot up FPSC, and see your new zone in the marker area of the editor (same place the triggerzone is at).

To give your new zone a "usekey" value, open the "My Zone.fpe" file and you SHOULD see a line in there for "ifused =" that doesn't equal anything. Right underneath that line, add the following:

usekey = NameOfEntity

Save that and your new zone now has a UseKey option set to "NameOfEntity". If you know how the "UseKey" option works (like for doors that require keys) you can now use your zone in a similar fashion, but I recommend using the "anykeywithinzone=1" command with it. Remember, the "key" for your zone must be given the same name that you put into the FPE file (In this example's case, the name would be "NameOfEntity")


Hope that all made sense. Good luck!


(Any of the scripters passing through here, can you please check my file names and folders and make sure they're correct? I don't have FPSC installed to make sure, just running this out of memory. )

Glad to hear it! It woul dbe nice to have the UseKey option in the Editor for zones, so taht we wouldn't have to go through all of this and can just stick with regular triggerzones for everything.
