[LVL ED] How to get Grunt to open cabinet doors

Ok so what you want to do for this case is delete the AddTimer("", 1.0, "MonsterPath"); in the void OnStart
and replace it with this
SetEntityPlayerInteractCallback("name of your key in here", "MonsterPath", false);
and then change your void MonsterPath from
void MonsterPath(string &in asTimer)
to
void MonsterPath(string &in asEntity)
leave everything else in this void the same.

Just FYI, it's called a function. Void is the return type (which means the function doesn't return anything).

I would like to thank you for understanding this. We all have to start somewhere. Now when you say "name of your key here" does the key mean the area the player has to walk into?

The key should be the actual 'Key' that the player picks up. So whatever you called the key that is placed in the map, that is what you would use.
