Next select your switch, select the floorsquare the switch is on, press the pink trigger button and change the type of the trigger to:"switch". (left clicking the pink square in plan view reads:"switch for ...switch" If the switch is somewhere else then your door you can also 'heavy' trigger the door with a flyby camera as described in the manual ("seeing things differently",setting up the pick-up trigger in the upper stackroom) Pytr.

Reb@Eidos unregistered | posted 12-21-2000 01:25 PM Please don't be shy about looking for similar set-ups in the example levels! Usually you can figure out what has to be done by looking at the triggers (by clicking repeatedly on the pink squares in the Plan View Grid to bring up the yellow message boxes) There are trigger to object and object to trigger buttons that help you find what is linked to what.
