Paste this code into a script entity in your dungeon. All of the doors that you want to open on party bumping it , put "bumpdoor" in its name. For example, "dungeon_door_portcullis_1bumpdoor"

There is not a check to make sure it is actually a door, so don't put the text "bumpdoor" into any entity that is not a door or the game will crash.

The first section is easy. it just checks all of the entities that are at the same tile as the party. If one of them has "bumpdoor" it its ID, then if your move direction and your own facing matches the door's facing, then it opens.

The other conditions are for opening doors from the opposite side. They work the same way, but need to find the tile in front of the player and make sure the door is facing reversed from the party.

Its working nicely. Many thx. I dont know what to say more You go to my credit list

Also, I don't know if this was deliberate, but maxDistance = 1 means the player can activate the door from 1 block away, maxDistance = 0 means they have to be next to it.

You can always do a work around.
Only one facing can be true for any given door(0,1,2,3). So the only two valid tiles that can toggle the door is when the party is standing on the tile the door is placed, or the adjacent one the door is facing.

Code: Select all

defineObject{
   name = "my_clickable_door",
        baseObject = "dungeon_door_portcullis",
   components = {
      {
         class = "Door",
         sparse = true,
         killPillars = true,
      },
      {
         class = "Clickable",
         maxDistance = 1,
         -- offset vector is the point where begin the clickable box
         offset = vec(0,1.3,0),
         -- size is the size of our clickable box
         size = vec(2.5,2.5,0.3),
         onClick = function(self)
			local x1 = self.go.x
			local y1 = self.go.y
			local x2 = party.x
			local y2 = party.y
			local facing = self.go.facing
			if x1 == x2 and y1 == y2 then
				self.go.door:toggle()
			elseif facing == 0 and x1 == x2 and y1-1 == y2 then
				self.go.door:toggle()
			elseif facing == 1 and x1+1 == x2 and y1 == y2 then
				self.go.door:toggle()
			elseif facing == 2 and x1 == x2 and y1+1 == y2 then
				self.go.door:toggle()
			elseif facing == 3 and x1-1 == x2 and y1 == y2 then
				self.go.door:toggle()
			end
         end
      },
      {
         class = "Controller",
         onOpen = function(self, name)
            self.go.door:open()
         end,
         onClose = function(self)
            self.go.door:close()
         end,
         onToggle = function(self)
            self.go.door:toggle()
         end,
      },
   },
   placement = "wall",
   editorIcon = 124,
}

While this solves the problem of the party's location relative to the door, unfortunately this still doesn't work. It seems the clickable component created does not function through the door model when it is closed, much like a button.

Also, am I misunderstanding the "sparse" property? I am assuming that it differentiates between solid and gate doors, allowing you to place items through the latter.

Would it be possible to dynamically create a second clickable object at the location of the door, but with a rotation of 180 degrees, that on click toggles the door on the same tile?
(I can probably code this myself, just wondering of there is a better way to do it).

Thanks.

I think sparse allows you to click through the door, but it also makes the door permeable to placing objects through it. Let me do a test

edit: Sparse MUST be true for the doors to open from both sides.

Here is a new script version of the clickable door without define object, you can apply this to any door.
You have to set sparse to true to be able to click the door from both sides. You can not drop an item through the door anyway if it is clickable. However, if you disable the clickable, then you can optionally disable sparse at that time to make it solid while clickable is off.

Thanks so much for your help, this has been bothering me for ages. Turns out it doesn't matter if you can place items through the door or not, as the clickable component takes priority.

Hum .... just for record, you can easely modify the "clickable" surface smaller ... in my assets, I made these to all the door, but if you just modify the clickable size to 1,1,1 ( for example ) centered on the door ... you'll be able to pass some items through the portcullis
