First, create your door frame however you like. Next, create your door, and
name it 'Door'. (Ignore the ' ' when typing the name.) After completing this,
create another part which will detect the keycard touching it. Name this part
'Sensor'. For the next step, create a tool object, insert the part you want
the keycard to look like, and name the part 'Handle'. Add a Humanoid object
to the Handle part and rename it 'Real'. Finally, drag the tool into the
StarterPack folder in the Explorer tab. Now you are ready to start coding your
door sensor!
Create a script, and drag it into the sensor part. Then copy this code into
your script.
local function OnCardTouch(Hit)
local Real = Hit:FindFirstChild("Real")
if Real then
-- I decided to make the door transparent, but you could run an animation.
script.Parent.Parent.Door.Transparency = 0.5
script.Parent.Parent.Door.CanCollide = false
wait(2) -- This number is how long, in seconds, the door will stay open.
script.Parent.Parent.Door.Transparency = 0
script.Parent.Parent.Door.CanCollide = true
end
end
script.Parent.Touched:connect(OnCardTouch)
Now that you have a door, a keycard, and a sensor, you have completed the
basic tutorial. If you would like to make a keycard tool giver, continue
reading. Otherwise, if you are fine with everyone getting a keycard, you
finished the tutorial!
The KeyCard giver is a part which a player clicks to recieve a KeyCard, similar
to the tools you can click to get in Jailbreak or other games. Make a part which
the player will click either identical to the KeyCard, or whatever you want the
giver to look like. Insert a ClickDetector object into the giver part, then create
a script object in the same part. Inside the script, insert the following code
for the tool giver to work.
P.S.
Make sure to name the KeyCard tool 'KeyCard' and drag it into the ServerStorage
folder from the StarterPack folder.
local KeyCard = "KeyCard"
script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseClick:Connect(function(player)
-- Here I implement a check to see if the player already has the card.
if not player.Backpack:FindFIrstChild(KeyCard) then
game.ServerStorage.KeyCard:Clone().Parent = player.Backpack
end
end)
Now that you have created one keycard door and giver, why not make more different
keycards that will open different doors! To do this, duplicate the keycard tool,
door (everything, the frame, the sensor, and the actual door), and the giver.
Next, rename the humanoid in the tool, and change where indicated in the script.
For example, you rename the humanoid 'Stuff'. Also, rename the Door part something else,
for example, 'Door2'.
P.S.
Remember to rename the KeyCard tool something else such as 'KeyCard2'.
local function OnCardTouch(hit)
local Real = Hit:FindFirstChild("Stuff") --Rename the inside of the parentheses "Stuff".
if Real then
script.Parent.Parent.Door2.Transparency = 0.5 --Rename the Parent.Door Parent.Door2
script.Parent.Parent.Door2.CanCollide = false
wait(2)
script.Parent.Parent.Door2.Transparency = 0
script.Parent.Parent.Door2.CanCollide = true
end
end
script.Parent.Touched:connect(OnCardTouch)
Now, for the other giver, nothing needs to be renamed, only changes to the script need to be made.
local KeyCard = "KeyCard2"
script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseClick:Connect(function(player)
if not player.Backpack:FindFirstChild(KeyCard2) then
game.ServerStorage.KeyCard:Clone().Parent = player.Backpack
end
end)
This process can be repeated multiple times, ensuring that you will never run out
of variations for your KeyCard doors!
