[Urgen Help Needed] Active an object through collision

Game Engine Game Engine Support and Discussion

I have a project that need to be done on Monday so i need someone to reply me this ASAP.

Here’s my problem:
I have 3 objects. One is my character, door, and an empty (invisible) object.
Now i want my character when he touched the empty object, this will animate my door from frame 1 - 60 (allows my character to walk through the door when it opens). It seems simple but i really have no idea how to do the setting in buttons window.

Help me guys & Thanks!

I’m pretty sure empties have no collision.

Try using the near sensor on the door. I attached an example to demonstrate. Take note of how I used the nand controller to play the closing animation (also take note that I used actions not ipos, but the same thing can be done with an ipo actuator).

If you press bounds it works for empties, since they have no mesh they will not get one automatically.
