Better JVS Door Events

[Luigi609²]

Now I know JVS is not very liked by people, but for the people who still use the simple version without onContent spam I've got a way to improve the way the doors work.
I'm sure some of you have experienced this while using JVS Doors.

Person 1: Oh hi nice to see you
Person 1: Please, come on- in?
Person 1: .......stupid jvs

So I present to you a little something I came up with a while playing on Clay Hanson's Server a while back.
Yes, I know some of you little "geniuses" could've thrown this together yourselves

(0) (0) [X] OnActivate > Self > Door > OpenCW (or OpenCWW)

(1) (0) [X] OnDoorOpen > Self > playsound > {door sound here}

(2) (300) [X] OnDoorClose > Self > playsound > {door sound here}

(3) (0) [  ] OnActivate > Self > Door > Close

(4) (300) [X] OnDoorOpen > Self > setRayCasting [X]

(5) (0) [X] OnActivate > Self >toggleEventsEnabled > [ 0  3 ]

And now the door opens and closes only when you click it's hitbox, not the door itself
WARNING: If the events were spammed the door will no longer function properly
To fix this reset the doors events back to what you see in the code above.

EDIT: On a side note, since RayCasting is now enabled when the door is open (before it wasn't) You can no longer shoot through the door while it's open or see name tags.

I've personally only liked the look of JVS Doors. Other than that, They're stuff.

[Alkatjo]

Personally i really never cared for JVS. When BLB brick doors became the norm i rejoiced because that meant builds would be cleaner and a lot nicer. You could always adjust the time before the door closes, say 10 seconds. Instead of the normal 3.

Yes you could do that, or just have it open and close as you please.

[Awdax]

Yeah, like the BLB doors?

[Mr.Noßody]

JVS should be phased out entirely.

Definetly. They're just annoying. as i said,

I didn't even know people still used them. I can see people converting the doors to BLB types, but still using the JVS event system and junk? God damn.

I felt that the jvs doors were extremely flexible and easy to rig up with somewhat simple events. It was spammy in the events list, but the new doors don't have ownership restrictions packaged with them, or even sound effects.
The new doors are better, dgmw, but JVS really held a special place with me.

I feel that, and I think it's time for me to move away from JVS. I don't know, but I've always liked jvs more then the brick doors.

Despite the flaws, I liked the doors of how they are animated and I don't need a lot of bricks to made the door animations, the look is better. I do admit, JVS is buggy and hard to event entirely. But, JVS is more rememberable than BLB doors.

[MikkelDude]

is there a way to use JVS doors w/out the animations? like BLB doors?

zapk ported jvs doors to blb although the dl is borked

Why would you phase out an add-on that can be easily fixed? Not to mention that it's not malicious enough to be added to the crapons list.

the fundamental issue is they use static shapes, not brick data, to do the animation and display. this means they lag a lot more and take a lot longer to ghost, something you cant fix. that's the problem with them; not because they dont work or are buggy, but because they fundamentally are worse in performance and are not a good use of static shapes, since a big build can have a ton of doors. hundreds of static shapes have more performance impact than many thousands of bricks.
