Doors behave stangely

[ingedoom]

Hi forum.

I have a problem that i hope you can help me solve. The problem is; that the OpenDoor() function doesn't seem to work when it's called from within a timer function (in this case IntroHalt()). The debug message "door opens" is sent but the door is not affected by the script. When i call the function from Onstart() or StartIntro() it works just fine and the door opens.
I've also tried to put the door opening script inside the timer function itself, but this does not work either..

Do i have to make a ScriptArea for this to work, or can i do something else to avoid it? So i won't have to worry about adding areas in the level editor?

Also, can you explain why i can't seem to call the door opening script from a timer?

Edit: I tried to call the OpenDoor function with an EntityCollideCallback, but that didn't help either. I still only get the debug message
