How to make a invisible pressure plate withought making the floor under it invisible? Becouse disabling the model does just that.

What's the name of the door in which there is spikes in the floor that pull back when the door is opened?

You can use the floor_trigger item to function like an invisible pressure plate if I'm understanding what you're asking correctly.

That should be the mine_spear_door.

That's an odd request. Not without a program to alter the models I'm pretty sure. With such a program you would only need to make the model two sided. So no actual artistic skill is required.

You can build pretty extensive 3d indoor environments using secret doors, floor entities, and invisible platforms.

I've been mostly playing with the dungeon environment so my experience is with that. The dungeon secret doors are better than the dungeon wall entities because you get to see the model on both sides and there's obstacle and projectile collision. The problem with most of the floor entities is that they only display on one side.

The problem I have using secret doors for walls is you can see light shining through the cracks of the stone if there's light source on the other side.

ocean only shows at -2 and -3 heightmap so you work around it a little

i set the ocean far to the west and facing the same way so the ocean stretches east unbderneath the entire map. whereever its low enough it will show.

slight issue is the water stretching out to the north and south of the map and the san to the east if you dont disable it from the components


on your second point you have to offset a model so you shouldnt need to do anything all to fancy, but I'm not 100% sure how to do it yet, but they are placed on the map just like the shipwreck and the ocean

aah I'm confused

i want to change the y-position of a secret door. i thought you had to do something like

Code: Select all

door.go:setWorldPositionY(42)
but i get an error: attempt to index field 'go' (a nil value)

how are you supposed to call on it?
