Trying to animate a door through an eventhandler

[FW200 0]

I'm working (for old times sake) on a plane, on which I have 2 doors and a ladder. I want the plane to be locked when the doors are closed and when the doors are opened the plane to be unlocked.

However I can't even seem to get the Open door thing to work..

My addon knowledge stems from the Operation Flashpoint era, and so do these scripts.. so any help would be nice :)

So this is what I have:

CONFIG.CPP:

	class AnimationSources 
	{
		class leftdoor		
		{
			source = "user"; 
			animPeriod = 2;  
			initPhase=0;
		};	
		class rightdoor		
		{
			source = "user"; 
			animPeriod = 2; 
			initPhase=0;
		};
		class ladder		
		{
			source = "user"; 
			animPeriod = 2; 
			initPhase=0;
		};	

	};

	class UserActions 
	{
		class FWA_AN14DOORSOPEN
		{
			displayName = "Open Door";		
			position = "door";			
			radius = 5;
			onlyForPlayer = 0;
			condition = "this animationPhase ""leftdoor"" < 0.5";
			statement = "this exec ""\FWA_AN14\opendoor.sqf""";
		};

		class FWA_AN14DOORSCLOSE 
		{
			displayName = "Close Door";
			position = "door";
			radius = 5;
			onlyForPlayer = 0;
			condition = "this animationPhase ""leftdoor"" > 0.5";
			statement = "this exec ""\FWA_AN14\closedoor.sqf""";
		};
     		  };
              };            

The doors and ladder have been defined in the model.cfg and do actually work in Buldozer.

Opendoor.sqf:

_plane = _this select 0

_plane animate ["leftdoor", 1];
_plane animate ["rightdoor", 1];

sleep 0.5;

_plane animate ["ladder", 1];
exit

closedoor.sqf is pretty much the same except in reverse..

this exec

maybe its this execvm for .sqf ?

[columdrum 11]

Change exec to execVM (you are using sqf sintax)

Change the script for this one:

_plane = _this;

_plane animate ["leftdoor", 1];

_plane animate ["rightdoor", 1];

sleep 0.5;

_plane animate ["ladder", 1];

profit

The main problem its that you were passing the object as it was( this exec ....) and then on the script you used it as it was an array ( _this select 0).

Yay that was it :) Thanks a lot! Do you also happen to know how I could lock the plane ?
