I'm trying to make the famous scary iron maiden effect in my custom story (don't say it's old, just trying to freak my friends out) and for some reason the doors wont open. I get the look effect of iron maiden but no doors or smoke :/

If anyone had time to look at this it would be much appreciated

To make smoke you need to use particles and for the doors you need prop impulse

It should be

AddBodyForce("iron_maiden_2_leftDoor", -0.7, 0, -0.7, "world");
AddBodyForce("iron_maiden_2_rightDoor", -0.7, 0, 0.7, "world");

Nope

AddBodyImpulse("iron_maiden_2_leftDoor", -0.7, 0, -0.7, "world");
AddBodyImpulse("iron_maiden_2_rightDoor", -0.7, 0, 0.7, "world");

AddBodyImpulse("iron_maiden_2_rightDoor", -0.7, 0, 0.7, "world");

That's already in my script so why won't the doors open?

Maybe works this

AddBodyImpulse("iron_maiden_2_leftDoor", -900, 0, -900, "world");

AddBodyImpulse("iron_maiden_2_rightDoor", -900, 0,900, "world");

Thank you, worked prefect. Never thought that I should add more power, since it didn't move at all I thought something else was wrong..

The thing is Impulse don't need more power you just need to change the way the power is used, like if the doors are looking towards the x axis it's 7 on one of the impulse but if it looks the other way of the x axis it's -7 etc

Might be that it's pushing towards the wrong axis as you said but i really can't be bothered to change it, moving on to other stuff.
