<div class="IPBDescription">for opening partially (how to create?)</div>Just tried searching the verc for this but as you can imagine the results are pretty useless when searching for the word "valve"

Does anyone remember/know how to create a door that opens a certain amount depending how much you turn a valve? i remember there being several in the single player halflife, some even closed slowly if you stopped turning the valve.

    The valve you're describing is a <a href="http://collective.valve-erc.com/index.php?ent=func_rot_button" target="_blank">func_rot_button</a>, when creating one don't forget the origin brush btw. I'm kind of rusty on the specific use of it, but I think if you create one and give it the door as a target it will automaticly make it open and close according to what you're doing with the func_rot_button ingame

    Dang it didnt work - the door only opens after the full rotation of the valve. Basciallly its the same as a button which ends up rotating, you don't even have to hold "e" , once it starts rotating it just goes.
    I'll have to do some mor experimenting <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile-fix.gif" />

    Heh, it seems I was mistaken.

    The func_rot_button is simply that. A button that rotates to a certain degree and then activate it's target. what you need are these two entities: <a href="http://twhl.co.za/entityinfo.php?ent=momentary_rot_button&game=1" target="_blank">momentary_rot_button</a> and <a href="http://twhl.co.za/entityinfo.php?id=149" target="_blank">momentary_door</a>
