How do you control doors manually? I've seen it done by bots in Trench Wars, but is it possible for a mod to use a command to do it?

?set door:doormode=#

(etc)

requires sysop afaik

There might be a bot plugin that'll do that stuff for a mod.

If there isn't, I'll make one. It'll be like 1 line of code lol.

?doormode=<hexcode>

right????
you'll need to figure out which bit goes with which door (if you want to do it manually), or just use a bot

No it's not just ?doormode, it's ?set Door:Doormode as Akai said. I'll get to work on that plugin.

Oh and btw, it's not a hex value, it's a binary converted to decimal.

Okay, how do I disable it and let the door settings go back to normal?

Nevermind....

I just went back into my settings and set the doors back to random..

Or, you could also type ?set door:doormode=-2
so all the doors are randomized again.

Thanks Akai for the info tho!

It would be helpful if this topic was sticky'd since we have an answer that most zone owners want.

Stickyness is only for like mondo-important topics. Searches are for little questions like this.

Darn, well I guess I'll just finish writing this plugin when someone else wants it

Finsish writing? Its like, 2 lines. How do you only write half of a 2-line peice of software?

Lol yeah, I have the normal system done. I'm also adding in control of individual doors by "!door V1:on" and so on.

never did figure out how to exactly control specific doors? :/ any tutorials or explinations?

The thing is that it's binary converted to decimal. The binary is a standard 8-bits, 1 for each door. Vertical 1 is the left-most bit, Horizontal 4 is the right-most. It's tough to figure out in your head, so use FACTS to convert it. (Server -> Door Calc). I guess I'll finish up my plugin today.

OK, I finished the plugin. You can use either the decimal way or you can control individual doors. Check doors.txt for syntax.

yeah, i agree.
its easy when you understand and should be second nature to some people. especally when you need to know it just for the Cisco CCNA. have you actually tryed to figure out subnets manually? its really hard if u dont know binary.

No, I haven't actually tried to figure out subnets

.
And I, personally, can convert from binary to decimal in my head pretty easily, but there's plenty of people who can't.
