Look at how they did it in TDD it's the easiest way. Start looking more in maps from TDD instead of writing a new thread all the time Smile

Look in the original Amnesia maps to see how they did, open in the level editor and see how their settings is and then just look at the .lang file.

RE: Text While looking on Level door
If you want to get a text while just LOOKING at a door, you can "make the door a sign":
- Create a fairly thin area covering the front of the door, so that the player will see the invisible area in front of the door in-game.
- Under the area properties, set the "Type" to "Sign".
- Specify what category, and what entry, the message that is to be displayed, is in.

Nope not for a level door it is different. Maybe for a swing door but not a level door

What? I thought the area itself didn't care what was behind it. Let's say you place the area a bit from the door, and looked at things beside the door, and then the door. Would the level door then make the message disappear only while the area was between it and the door? It doesn't make sense.
