1: Make a door, name it "door_01"
2: Make a func_button
3: In the outputs tab for the func_button click the "Add..." button.
4: In the first dropdown, select "OnPressed"
5: In the second dropdown, select the door, or type the name "door_01"
6: In the final drop down ("via this input") select "Open"

Thank you exavior, i was searching for the answer to that for a while... its kind of like the way triggers work in flash..

Thanks, But How Can I MAke It Close Again?

 

[genocide604]

You make it close in the doors properties, thats not controlled by the trigger unless you create another trigger to say it closes on another button push...

Try pressing Left alt and enter on your door, and fooling with its speed, its "open time" and stuff like that.. or so i understand.

Yeah I Know How To Make It Close Through The Door Properties But Theres No Way To Close It Through The Same Button?

yes...
In the button properties check the "toggle" box.
Now change "OnPressed" in the output tab to "OnIn"
Have that open the door.

Now create another output, but this time have the action be "OnOut" and have that close the door.
