Author Topic: Do you build your own doors or use JVS?  (Read 1778 times)

JVS allows me to use different styles of doors as opposed to the rather simplistic built doors. I couldn't live without JVS. :c

Built doors are better if you want to open and then close them manually, but JVS switches are nice

JVS, because I'm a fine detail builder.  Brick doors are too clunky, so I only use them when I'm out of JVS options (such as the main doors on a courthouse build I've been working on).

As for "eventing prowess," most standard doors can be made with just two events.

onActivate>door1>disappear>-1
onActivate>door2>disappear>0

Just flip those events for the door's other state.

I agree about the clunky sizing of brick doors, but I opt for special brick window.

You can open/close JVS doors manually too if you tweak/add events.

But I use both depending on what I'm building. I often find myself using JVS though because of the multitude of doors.

Mostly when I'm going for detail I will use JVS, but if I want something closer to the Blockland/Lego atmosphere I can build brick doors with custom events. They're both nice, just depends on the build c:

For more complicated eventing it's easier to use built doors to avoid all the content stuff, but for the sake of being a door, JVS is smoother and much more realistic.

Also, it doesn't require any knowledge of variables as such to set trust on a content door :)
