i cant see to get the door in my map to open, heres what i have so far

at the start of the map there is 1 prison guard at location 'prison guard loc'

player 8 (the computer) if he brings 0 'prison guard' to location 'prison guard loc' then actions: disable doodad state for (right pit door) at location 'door 1' for current player.

but the problem is, when the 'prison guard' dies the door at 'door 1' stays closed, it never opens.


the door im using is under doodads > substructure > substructure #21 in ScmDraft 2.0

is that doodad called right pit door or something else ?



None.

Place the door as a unit, rather than the doodad, like, place it's terrain, then delete the sprite, and place a unit in it's place, so you know which player you are disabling. Also, make sure it's the right door you're disabling.

i found the door under units > neutral > doodads but when i go to place it it does not really look right, like the sides and stuff are missing.

how do i make it look like the one under doodads ?

The sides and such are terrain, the door itself is a sprite in the doodad, so what you may want to do is place the doodad, select it, right click and do Convert to Terrain, then go to the sprite layer, select it, delete that door, then place a unit one in its place.

You have to put it into a wall. The door doesn't come with sides on its own.
