Is it possible to let a monster check a wardrope? - ArtoLP - 11-11-2013

Simple question Smile
I would create a new monster with new animations. If I made an animation for opening a warddrope, could I somehow let it interact with the entity?

Thank you!

Timing the animation with the opening of the warddrope will be a pain in the ass but if you add it in manually for every warddrope it should be possible.

Just a tip, if you do this you'd have to be very careful with your level design and not give too many other options for hiding. The moment someone realizes a grunt can check the wardrobe, they'll stop hiding in there and you'd have basically worked so hard on something that will only happen once.

How about having a grunt that destroys the wardrobe's door? That'd be much simplier.

You can create a quick script where:

When monster is in the room.
If player is in the wardrobe
Go to wardrobe
---->
-----When monster is in front of wardrobe
-----Add force to the wardrobe doors
