Well, seeing as Player-Housing won't be added into vbGORE any time soon, not at least til a Tut is done up for it anyway, I'm wondering, if a Key Item AL could be introduced. Not only for player houses, but just to keep n00bs out of certain areas, have places only people that have done certain things, and therefore have a key, ect.

I could go either way on this one. We'll see what more people have to say about it.

Keys would be a great idea, for instance high lvl caves, were you need a key from a quest to enter.

please put this in spodi.

Well the thing is that doesn't really solve having only the people with the key enter - if you open the door, anyone can go through until the door closes.

Well, maybe have it only as a warp...so, I'm not good a code, but I'll give it a shot:

Code:

If Player has Item1 'The Key
Warpto Map2
Else
ShowMessage: You need a key to opn thi door
End If

Just as simple as that...but in working order, of cource. Now That would be cool

Just for starters anyway

We can build upon it future versions, or even after v1

Just warping them kinda ruins the point of it in my opinion. If you were going to do that, just make a special Exit attribute that checks for a certain item in their inventory.

True...and with your way, the player would only have to make sure that the door does close after entering

So long as something is made, I'm happy

what if the door automatically closed behind each player as they went through with a key. I'd really like to see something like this integrated.

Or the door automatically closes a few seconds after being opened.

No I'm talking instant. So only the person with the key would be able to get through.

yea thats a good idea

or you can script it that the person automatically moves through the door like in runescape

Yea, that would be good, because sometimes players also want to follow there friends...but, it wouldn't be that long...like, only 2 or 3 secs.

2-3 seconds would be quite hard to cram a few people through a door. Anyways, I'll decide what to do with it if I do it.

actually, this still wouldn't work out. why don't you just make it that if you don't have the right "item" or "level" or whatever, whether the door is open or not. Then again, this still might not work, only because there is player collision detection, and a player can block the way from another player, (a doorway for example) so, you'll need something for that, since pvp using that whole collision thing, but you can't just make it that if a player goes on it there is no collision, since someone pvping can exploit it. well, i have an answer to this problem... but, it's not worth saying since it'd probally involve a lot of changes.
