door timer?

Hope im in the right section of the forum now, but anyways...

I am now working on a ns_siege map, and im soon done! But there are one thing i cant figure out, and cant find a tutorial for either.. and that is how to make a door that opens itself after X numbers of sec/min ! =P How do i do
that?

If anyone can help me here i would be gratefull =) Thanks ! =D

One way would be setting up a multi_manager. Give it a name Turn off the smart edit Add a Key with the name of your door entity and give it a numeric value in X seconds. Once you activate this multi_manager it will wait the number of seconds and then trigger the door entity.

Ok, But what if i want the "countdown" to go automaticly from the werry start of the game? =)

Then just trigger the multi_manager entity at the start. I don't know
if trigger_auto works wih NS, but you could try using that or then just
add a trigger_once under the spawns that triggers the multi_manager.

Ok, but is there any other way to do this ? Cause i want it to hapen automaticly without the players have to do anything =P

Well if you put a trigger_once under their spawn it will happen as soon
as someone spawns. Try using a trigger_auto first, it should work
without anyone doing anything. :biggrin:

Ok, but if i use the trigger_auto, the countdown starts as soon as the map is loaded, it doesnt wait untill the actuall game beginns =P
And if im to use the trigger_once (witch i didnt find in my Hammer) .. I would have to copy and paste that one atleast 16 times, since there should be atleast 16 spawns, and they are used randomly =P

Just use one big one under all of one teams spawns. trigger_once is one
of the brush entity triggers. Create one big trigger_once in the marine
spawn area for example tie it to a trigger_once entity and place it
just under your spawnpoints(it's useful to put them 4 or 8 units above
ground to prevent people from getting stuck at spawn).
