What am I doing wrong with this door script?

[Kylie Jaxxon]

I have no idea what I'm doing wrong...I dropped the script in the contents.  I want the shutter to  open out, but instead, it opens all askew, sideways kind of.  Any info to help me?

Also, I want a script where once the shutters are open, they stay open...is there a way to change the timing on this basic script or should I be shopping for a certain wording that allows this to happen?

Sorry...complete novice here when dealing or working with scripts...plain english please. :smileysurprised:  :smileytongue:

 

ETA:  Thanks to both of you, Rolig & Monti...will get back inworld tonight and try another one.  Lol, never thought of something being wrong with the script itself :)   Thanks for the tip on the timing feature, Monti.

It's impossible to say without seeing the script, since each scripter will write things a little differently.  The easiest solution, though, is to just use a different script.  The most basic, easy-to-use door script in SL is  at http://community.secondlife.com/t5/Scripting-Library/Simple-Hinge-Action/m-p/87486/highlight/true#M28 .  Follow the directions in the script itself and you will have no problems.

Plain english :smileywink: It is the wrong script then.

Not online right now so i´m hoping for Rolig to step in, shes the goddess of scripts.

At the stop at open part. There is a timer in the script that closes the door automatically.

To make it touch=open / touch = close it needs a touch event in the open and close state.
