Thanks Hazar that helped a little.
I can get them to work now with a button but i need to walk up to them and thy need to automaticly open.

In Radiant you only needed to select trek doors to get lift door effects....

Any other ideas guys !!

Make a brush around the door, tie the brush to trigger_multiple, and add an output to the trigger_multiple:

output OnTrigger
target door
input Open

Where door is the name of your func_doors.

And if you want the doors to remain open until the player moves far enough away from them, use these outputs instead...

output OnStartTouch
target door
input Open

output OnEndTouchAll
target door
input Close

Where door has a delay before reset of -1, and its Toggle flag is checked.

huh?? why not just make func_door and make it slide side ways when you come near it? you really need lots of other stuff?? '

A door can't sense when a person is near it--only when a person touches it. I'm pretty sure a person on the Enterprise didn't have to touch the doors to open them

Trust me they will notice !!!!!
Making 2 sliding doors was easy but when you bump into them only one half would open if you didnt hit it spot on.

RaevenO's Tutorial was spot on :thumbs:
Worked a treat mate thanks
It reads harder than it actually is to apply and once done i can copy and paste the doors to other areas and simply change the name as i go along

but most of starship doors does only have one door sliding at one direction ... might be wrong thugh (ghaagh im a ST nerd and i dont even know this)

Most trek doors were like lift doors and automatic especially on the old constitution class im working on.....Below is a pic of the finished doors in place...I just had to get them working properly
