Well, if the thing is going to be an animated model, then simply using its own collision hull to prevent moving through it while tied to its animation of the doors swinging. There wouldn't be any Hammer entities tied to it to simulate that. It would be all in the model's animation.

You could also just make it like a canned thing, like, if you interact with some object (like a panel) to open the door it plays your opening animation and it's a prop whatever and you can then pass through it, instead of having the game think it's a door.

Which is what Riven just said >_>


Blame it on Microsoft, God does.

Is there a tutorial on this? I would need to follow one as I am not quite sure how to set this up.
