Working secret door? - goodcap - 03-20-2017

I'm re-creating the secret office door from A Machine For Pigs. This is my setup:

Lever
Name: lever_small01_1
ConnectionStateChangeCallback: SecretDoor1

Secret Painting Door
Name: OfficeSecretDoor
ConnectionStateChangeCallback: SecretDoor1
Locked: YES

SCRIPT
oid SecretDoor1(string &in asEntity, int alState)
{
AddTimer("", 0, "TimerPushSecret");
SetLocalVarInt("SecretDoorOpen", 1);
SetEntityInteractionDisabled("secretdoorswitchsecretdoorswitch", false);
}

void TimerPushSecret(string &in asTimer)
{
SetSwingDoorLocked("secretdoorswitchsecretdoorswitch", false, false);
SetSwingDoorClosed("secretdoorswitchsecretdoorswitch", false, false);
SetSwingDoorDisableAutoClose("secretdoorswitchsecretdoorswitch", true);
AddBodyForce("secretdoorswitchsecretdoorswitch", 0.0f, 0.0f, -8000.0f, "world");
}


Everything seems to work except for the door automatically opening that should be happening thanks to the AddBodyForce line

Since you have to push it angularly, simply applying force on an axis may not work that well. I think you need to apply adequent force in both X and Z, using timers to lessen the X/Z one and increase the Z/X one (depending on the direction it's facing).

This video on doors may work the same way:
