Hi im working on a plugin for l4d2 and im trying to see if there is a way of unlocking all doors in a chapter at the beginning of the map(or maybe at a specific radius of all players)
Unlocking or removing would be fine but the aim is that the doors should be open by the time the survivors gets to them.
Thanks

didnt know if this working for doors, but for gascan working like
AcceptEntityInput(entity, "break");
try "use" or "open" "unlock"...

AcceptEntityInput

Syntax: native bool:AcceptEntityInput(dest, const String:input[], activator=-1, caller=-1, outputid=0);
Usage: dest Destination entity index.
input Input action.
activator Entity index which initiated the sequence of actions (-1 for a NULL entity).
caller Entity index from which this event is sent (-1 for a NULL entity).
outputid Unknown.Notes: Invokes a named input method on an entity. After completion (successful or not), the current global variant is re-initalized.
Return: True if successful otherwise false.
Version Added:1.0.0.1946
On error / Errors: Invalid entity index or no mod support.

Thanks for the info but could you give me an example of how i could use this ?

Well i found some code for a similar task

new ent20 = -1; new prev20 = 0; while ((ent20 = FindEntityByClassname(ent20, "weapon_autoshotgun")) != -1)

Obviously this is to remove the shotgun i tried replacing "weapon_autoshotgun" with prop_rotating_door and it didnt work im not sure that is the right entity name but i cant seem to find anything else in the entity list.

PHP Code:

    HookEvent("round_start", Event_RoundStart, EventHookMode_PostNoCopy);


public Action:Event_RoundStart(Handle:event, String:name[], bool:dontBroadcast)
{
    new EntCount = GetEntityCount();
    new String:EdictName[128];
    for (new i = 0; i <= EntCount; i++)
    {
    if (IsValidEntity(i))
        {
            GetEdictClassname(i, EdictName, sizeof(EdictName));
           // PrintToServer("EdictName %s",EdictName); //debug list all edicts
            
            if (StrContains(EdictName, "prop_door_rotating", false) != -1)
            {
                AcceptEntityInput(i, "use"); //kill:)  didnt know the command 4 doors
                continue;
            }
        }    
    }
}

better this one

PHP Code:

    HookEvent("round_start", Event_RoundStart, EventHookMode_PostNoCopy);


public Action:Event_RoundStart(Handle:event, String:name[], bool:dontBroadcast)
{

    new ent = -1;
    while ((ent = FindEntityByClassname(ent, "prop_door_rotating")) !=  -1)                      
    {
                AcceptEntityInput(ent, "open");   
    }
    ent = -1;
    while ((ent = FindEntityByClassname(ent, "func_door")) !=  -1)                      
    {
                AcceptEntityInput(ent, "open");   
    }
    ent = -1;
    while ((ent = FindEntityByClassname(ent, "func_door_rotating")) !=  -1)                      
    {
                AcceptEntityInput(ent, "open");   
    }
}

Thanks for the code but i tried both of your scripts and neither of them made a difference, all doors still remain shut i even tried both scripts as seperate plugins and nothing changed. Im hoping i made some kindof stupid mistake but i dont think i did. Any help please

One thing i just noticed was that all safehouse doors(the end ones) are being closed automatically with your code dYZER and all doors remain the same, with Absolute's code no changes on the doors

*Edit*
Dyzer on your code i replaced "use" with Kill and it kindof worked the problem now is i dont have a safehouse door xD Any clue on how to not remove it?, also i though that door was called prop_door_rotating_checkpoint,so i wonder if its being removed because the entity name is almost identical :S .


*Edit#12*
Finally got it to work guys thanks for your help, Heres the final code for the doors if anyone out there is interested .

public OnPluginStart() { HookEvent("round_start", Event_RoundStart, EventHookMode_PostNoCopy); } public Action:Event_RoundStart(Handle:event, String:name[], bool:dontBroadcast) { new EntCount = GetEntityCount(); new String:EdictName[128]; for (new i = 0; i <= EntCount; i++) { if (IsValidEntity(i)) { GetEdictClassname(i, EdictName, sizeof(EdictName)); // PrintToServer("EdictName %s",EdictName); //debug list all edicts if (StrContains(EdictName, "prop_door_rotating_checkpoint", false) != -1) { AcceptEntityInput(i, "Open"); //kill didnt know the command 4 doors im pretty sure "open doesn't do anything" continue; } else if (StrContains(EdictName, "prop_door_rotating", false) != -1) { AcceptEntityInput(i, "Kill"); //kill didnt know the command 4 doors } } } }
