Prevent Door From Opening/closing?

Is there a way to make it so a door can't be opened/closed if a player is standing in a certain place? I have a door in the celing of a cargo room thing witha crate hanging through the opening, and when you open the door into that room the door in the ceiling closes and then the door to the room opens. Is there a way to make it so when someone is in the room it can't be shut which would open the airlock? I want it to display a message instead of closing if someone trys to close the door while someone's inside.

Hope that made sense...

    Got another problem too... When I try to drop stuff under a func wall window in the celing it doesn't let me, how can I fix this? Pics:

    make the window func_seetrough.
    But funcseetrough with an player amount lower than 0 can be shoot trough.

    Another way can be a func illusionary with the invisible from top flag AND a clip brush. You cant shoot trough but skulks cant climb it.

    Such airlock doors are possible with multimanagers or trigger_changetarget.
    Seen it in ns_cydonia (no idea if thats buggy).

    Thanks, I didn't know comm could drop stuff through a func_seethrough.

    I'll try messing around with this "trigger_changetarget".

    Start with the <a href='http://www.natural-selection.org/Mapping_Guidelines.html#trigger_presence' target='_blank'>trigger_presence</a> entity to detect when a player is in the room. Use this entity to disable the master of the <a href='http://collective.valve-erc.com/index.php?ent=func_door' target='_blank'>func_door</a>, which will make it so that it can't be operated.

    The <a href='http://collective.valve-erc.com/' target='_blank'>VERC Collective</a> has information on the generic Half-Life entities that are required to wire the logic for the door -- if you use the func_door link above, that should get you started.

    And would the door work again once the player left?

    Yes, if you set the trigger_presence exit target to reenable the master

    EDIT: meaning the Deactivation Target

    Trigger presence can be tricky because of teleport, blink and other high speed moving when you use it on a door that needs longer than 0 seconds to open/close.

    I could also activate a trigger_hurt that does like 1 damage every second if the door is shut while you're in there <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo--> Do trigger hurts affect buildings though?

    I've also got a problem with doors, I just noticed that they can't be re closed... The switch is flipped but nothing happens... Can you not reclose 'em if you use a multimanager?
