how to open iron maiden?

I was wondering what script to use to have the iron maiden ( the coffin thing with nails) to open up automatically after i walk over a collide script..

So when i walk over a collide script the coffin swings open.

AddPropImpulse(blahblahblah)

is the function you are looking for. The iron maiden acts as a swing door, so anything you can do with a door will work on the IM as well.

No, because the rest of the iron maiden is considered to be static by the game. Its like if you checked the "static physics" box in the editor for something. So don't worry, it will only move the doors.

Just give it a one-directional push instead of a multi-directional. Give the push in the direction the IM is facing, and if you want it to open quickly, make the number roughly 5000 or so, just to make sure it works. For slower things, you may need to use a timer to repeatedly call a function that gives it a little push every so often.
