Door visibility nodes?

[xorbaxian]

greetings,

in my builder notes i have the following :

tdc01_g07_01 or 02 - the standard Big Doors feature in many tilesets has Pathnode N and DoorVisibilityNode Y. However this doesn’t work correctly and if the tile is rotated by 90° or 270°, the area behind door is automatically explorered when player comes closer.

Using DoorVisibilityNode=N solved this - the tile doesnt show anything until player opens the door.

i’m finally getting around to looking at this, but can’t figure out where to put the DoorVisibilityNode spec in order to see whether this is a real problem or a non-issue. can anyone help ?

thanks

In the .set file for the tileset, find the data for the tile model in question. It will be headed [Tile###] where ### is a number. The DoorVisibilityNode directive goes in that section (not in the [TILE###DOOR0] section which immediately follows it).

I don’t think N works any better. I was solving this for Community Patch and I think I workarounded it with one of the deleted nodes, still not perfect solution, but worked better than N. I lost that material recently due to hardrive failure but you can rip it from community patch files if you care.
