How to make a door bang when walking into an area? - MissMarilynn - 10-19-2011
How can I make a door bang or thump when a person walks into an area? I want it to sound like a monster is on the other side.

Use AddPropImpulse on the door, the impulse having a value of -2. Then you can play the sound "hit_wood" at the door or whatever other sound. Use a timer and local variables if you want to bang the door multiple times.

Isn't using
SetSwingDoorClosed(string& asName, bool abClosed, bool abEffects); easier?

I also would play a monster sound. Sleep tight...
PlaySoundAtEntity (...)

AddPropImpulse should bypass any complications brought in by SetSwingDoorClosed.

Yeah, and AddPropImpulse should leave the door as it was before the impulse effect once the impulse has finished. The dust, however, will have to be created with CreateParticleSystemAtEntity.

You use AddEntityCollideCallback, provide "Player" for the parent and the area name for the child name, and in the callback call something like:
PHP Code:
AddPropImpulse("door_name", -2, 0, 0, "World");
PlaySoundAtEntity("pound", "hit_wood", "door_name", 0, false);
PlaySoundAtEntity("enemy", "L02_attack", "door_name", 0, false);
CreateParticleSystemAtEntity("pound_dust", "ps_hit_wood", "door_name", false);
