Place door on water?

**SonOfLiberty796** · 11-23-2011, 09:09 PM

So how exactly can I place a door on water?

It seems like it doesn't work, nor does it like it, because yes I can place the door just fine in the level editor...

But when I go in the game, it floats and moves around like a possessed door fighting the water -_- (which scares me at times, because it makes loud noises and flies around...). In short, it doesn't want to be a good door, and stay still.

If I remember, there were doors on water in the original Amnesia game...so why doesn't it work when I place it?

Please help!

If the primitive/plane collides, there will be bugs like that. Make sure that it does not collide Smile

Ah, so you mean my door entity can't collide with the water (since the water is a Plane)?

I think the liquid area gives your door some random force so it moves around like a box floating above water. Either test different values or check frictionals door how it was made (obviously)

Click on the water plane and make sure "Collides" is UNCHECKED.

That's what I meant. If it's checked you walk on the water... when unchecked, you walk in the water.
Same goes with the door Smile

I tried what he said and it worked! Big Grin

and you explained something too!

I did realize that I was standing "higher" than the ground itself. I could even touch the celling almost!

Now that I unchecked that collide box, I not only walk IN water now, but the door works too!

Thank you both so much! Smile
