door destination change?

Post by Stealthy71088 »

So i thought I saw in one of the old keen 5 level packs a setup in which flipping a switch changed where a door exited to. How does this work exactly? Can I do this from KeenNext, or is there some patch that does it, or was I just seeing things?

This was used somewhat in the Keen Asylum levelpack, and in one level in my Keen 5 levelpack. I emailed the authors of that pack (it must have been in 2004 crap I'm old) and they responded with this message.

('doorz.txt' was the name of the attachment, blame Br1ck et al for the Z not me)

Upon reading that and deciphering I made this horridly embarrassing explanatory picture in Deluxe Paint IIe

which is like instant hilarity, but perhaps informative when taken together with the above text.
