Or you could fail the door slam request based on the failure to :get a lock? If you fail the door slam, do you retry? It would have side :affects for multiple characters attempting to walk through doors at the :same time. As a player/builder, I think it would be better if things like locking were not visible at all. So, I would prefer something like the retry, like Chris L. does, as opposed to failing the slam request. -- Chris Gray cg#ami-cg,GraySage.Edmonton.AB.CA </PRE> <!--X-Body-of-Message-End--> <!--X-MsgBody-End--> <!--X-Follow-Ups--> <HR> <!--X-Follow-Ups-End--> <!--X-References--> <!--X-References-End--> <!--X-BotPNI--> <UL> <LI>Prev by Date: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00019.html">Re: Event-driven?</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Next by Date: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00020.html">Re: Introduction</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Prev by thread: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00022.html">Re: A brief introduction.. ok, you got me: an introduction</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Next by thread: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00018.html">Re: Random thoughts</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Index(es): <UL> <LI><A HREF="index.html#00021"><STRONG>Date</STRONG></A></LI> <LI><A HREF="thread.html#00021"><STRONG>Thread</STRONG></A></LI> </UL> </LI> </UL> <!--X-BotPNI-End--> <!--X-User-Footer--> <!--X-User-Footer-End--> <ul><li>Thread context: <BLOCKQUOTE><UL> <LI><strong><A NAME="00023" HREF="msg00023.html">Re: Resets and repops</A></strong>, coder <a href="mailto:coder#ibm,net">coder#ibm,net</a>, Sun 06 Apr 1997, 04:08 GMT <UL> <li><Possible follow-up(s)><br> <LI><strong><A NAME="00052" HREF="msg00052.html">Re: Resets and repops</A></strong>, S001GMU <a href="mailto:S001GMU#nova,wright.edu">S001GMU#nova,wright.edu</a>, Wed 09 Apr 1997, 05:08 GMT </LI> <LI><strong><A NAME="00092" HREF="msg00092.html">Re: Resets and repops</A></strong>, clawrenc <a href="mailto:clawrenc#cup,hp.com">clawrenc#cup,hp.com</a>, Sat 12 Apr 1997, 05:10 GMT </LI> </UL> </LI> <LI><strong><A NAME="00022" HREF="msg00022.html">Re: A brief introduction.. ok, you got me: an introduction</A></strong>, coder <a href="mailto:coder#ibm,net">coder#ibm,net</a>, Sun 06 Apr 1997, 03:56 GMT <LI><strong><A NAME="00021" HREF="msg00021.html">database stuff</A></strong>, Chris Gray <a href="mailto:cg#ami-cg,GraySage.Edmonton.AB.CA">cg#ami-cg,GraySage.Edmonton.AB.CA</a>, Sun 06 Apr 1997, 02:46 GMT <LI><strong><A NAME="00018" HREF="msg00018.html">Re: Random thoughts</A></strong>, Jon A.
