the easiest way to trigger the door animation would be to use it like a bridge.
flip the switch --> door opens
the last door tiles need to have door properties so Keen can exit through it.
try this variant first, before jumping into some advanced stuff.

This patch makes all the keygem doors (ALL of them) into 2x3 block doors like in Keen 5. I am not sure if it will wreck some other patches in your patchfile, so that is possible.

Quoting the keenwiki: 'This patch alters the door code so that rather than animating special tiles, it copies a block of the level (Both foreground and background) from another location onto the door, much like how Miragia works.

This means that doors can be of any height or width, not just a single column. It also means any tiles may be used in a door, including animating ones and switches. The disadvantage is that all doors in a level will use the same tiles at the same location and so will do the same thing. This means that while doors can do more things, all doors in a level must do the same thing. '


So be aware it COPIES bits of the level instead of animating them. (See how Miragia works on the map? Like that.) It will however let you use doors that go to a different location when opened then they did when 'closed' (Switchable doors.) If you want regular doors AND these new doors... that is a tricky patch that will take at least a week to set up and will probably need a copy of your patchfile.

Careful, if the player uses the door in the stage where it has the door tiles (D) but no links, they'll be taken to 0/0 and thereby exit the level. You probably want to make the door not be a door until the final stage, or give the penultimate stage links.
