It wouldn't be hard at all to create a system for setting doors to allow staff only, or no one at all (if that's what you want).

angel and deo didnt want people in the mall till it was finished and instead of wasteing the time with a script to kick them out we went with blocks. i dont see why its a big enough deal to start a topic with 6 pages

It's not a big deal at all.

I'm not being mean or anything, but it takes literally two minutes to open the level, freeze the door script, and then reupload it. No staff is ever working too hard to spare two minutes.

sure it is.

I know when I was staff I used to block buildings off with staff blocks all the time. I didn't really think twice about the presentation of the level. now that people bring it up I see that it would be a nice improvement to replace staff blocks with other forms of limitation for specific areas.

what looks better? a door with staff blocks placed in front of it or a door with a sign that says "under construction" ?

you can do it just as easily as a staff block. have it so you say a command and click a door to change it's graphic to a door with a sign on it which also breaks the link. not hard at all.

Just maybe 2 staffblock would do the trick to block the door off.

Who remembers the amount of staffblocks blocking the hotel door? it was hilarious, I should've taken a picture lol

=/ i wanna smack u for saying this lol. <3

people use there cars to get in.

when the hotel was up we had 2 rows of block from eevery angle and people still got in. I was busy with the levels and just never took the time to add the script that kicks everyone out. Like sales said it would took 2 minutes but w/e, blocks arent a big deal

this topic went way to far

Hi, I'm not Sales.

If you're actually working on a project, and not just making a quick fix, it's always better to disable the door script.

DKH89 02-06-2009 06:30 AM

oh sorry mange lol i couldnt remember who said it =p

You don't even have to put a script in, You open the outside level, and you see the little gold box at the doorway? Remove it. but save the x,y if you are lazy like me.

Most if not all of Era's doors are level npcs with a certain class joined, which just needs some variables set to function as a warp. I don't think there are many regular level links left on the map.

What few were left were removed when helicopters started to be worked on.

I abused the crap out of links + helicopter :D
