Here's how you make an opening and closing door controlled by a switch

Spawn an interaction terminal and your door of choice

For the terminal:
Script-
<Condition>         On interaction
<Action>               Power: Set
Channel               (Whichever one you need)
State                    Toggle


For the door:
Script 1-
<Condition>         On Message Recieved
Channel                Whichever one you already chose in the terminal script
<Action>               Power: Set
Channel                Same channel again
State                     Toggle

Script 2-
<Condition>        On Power: State
Channel               Same channel again
State                    On
<Action>             Move Offset
Change the X/Y/Z and time to whatever you want

Script 2-
<Condition>        On Power: State
Channel               Same channel again
State                    Off
<Action>             Move Offset
Change the X/Y/Z to the negative of what you set in Script 2

 I barely got it in H2A, I was able to recreate a combination lock for one of my maps.

How's scripting in 5? is it similar is it to H2A?

Never used H2A's

One thing missing from the scripting is a way to have doors open automatically like in the campaigns when a player is near.

It's more complicated (as in, the amount of things you can do), but it's much simpler to actually use and create things.


OT- I'm finding this forge to be the best in the series thus far. Once you get used to the new controls, it really is a good thing to use.

Are there no activation volumes like there were in H2A?

Well. That's... Weird.

I have the day off tomorrow so I'm going to have a proper tinker with the new stuff to find stuff out.
It probably is in there somewhere.

GOTY material right there.

I also have a pretty great idea for forge. Watch this space.

I wanna make a map but I can't be arsed to learn what everything in forge does.

I seriously don't understand why some of you hate the idea of guests because they're supposedly so terrible. Just got done playing an Arena slayer game (I went 17 kills 11 deaths) with two of my team mates going 2 kills 15 deaths and 1 kill 11 deaths. I'm finding just as many terrible solo players now as I did terrible guests back on Halo 3 and Reach.

That being said, I have to admit that 343 did a pretty good job with weapon balance. It's nice to see how weapons that used to be heavily outclassed or only situationally good are now actually usable.

Speaking of dumb teammates...

You know what my new strategy for warthogs is? I just do everything myself. I feel like I'm some lone guy one manning a tank with levers and straps for all the other operators but it works. Like damn, I never trust teammates to drive, but now I've yet to see any that even know how to work a gun and aim properly.

So, I roll up just out of range, open fire on the bad guys, then switch seats and roll away. Actually quite proud of myself because yesterday I took on a fully manned enemy warthog and killed them.

I'm really digging the fact that they added a switch seat button. You wouldn't think it'd have much of an impact, but it does. It's helpful for fucking tank jackers too.

ignore how gay the dude's voice sounds

Check out Forge Labs for some decent tutorials.  I'm sure ForgeHub has got some decent people hanging around there, too.

God I hope welding vehicles gets added in the future

I've finally got a Scout helmet and don't know what to do with my life. Work for Mark IV I guess

I got one the other week. I don't use it because the secondary colour is much darker than the secondary colour of the armour I'm using, and the secondary colour of the Scout armour of the same set.

Kinda wish that forge pieces just didn't come in metallic pieces with just options to change the colours of. Some palletes would be nice. Urban like foundry or stony like sandbox, that kind of stuff.

Map looks like it has nothing on it yet, but holy shit that aesthetic is god tier.
