How Do I Make A Door Visible On A User Action?

Help Requests
1

In my game, I have a door which the user character has to pass through to get to the next level. I want to make that door visible only if the user takes a particular action, like hitting a lever or by taking special type of coin. The door should be invisible before that user action. Can someone pls suggest on how to make the door visible? Thanks

Player collision with lever> send message ____ to door. That’s what you need in the player. In the door:
Once> 0> alpha
Mailbox ____ 100> alpha

Use the “emit” block

4

or simply “spawn” (when collision, message, mailbox, spawn, coordinates, select grid)

I would recommend when the player collects or takes an object or action it will then use the spawn behavior which you can use a once behavior to input two numbers into the x and y coordinates for the door to spawn. The coordinates have to be the location you plan on spawning it in the game. Which when you click on a space inside the grid on the games editor it will tell you the x and y coordinates. I would just use a once behavior to set that into the spawn and when the player triggers it, it will send and output into the spawn making the door visible. I would not recommend using alpha although it would still work, the player can still interact with the door since it’s still there but just indivisible. Hopefully this helps.

Oh sorry @Cactus_Studios_Games I didn’t see your message about spawning either. I guess you can kind of say that I described a bit more detail regarding it, lol.

I still don’t understand though because the spawn is not working

Number before spawn?
dont forget to select grid and to make sure x and y arent inverted

Ok, let me try…I never used spawn that much in my game before, so that’s why I’m probably confused
