How do I open door with keypad.

hi,

Anybody know how to open a door with keypad. Example would be when a player near a door, a keypad will pop up and the player need to key in at the keypad to unlock the door. Like a security system door.

thanks.

use keyboard plugin

I was planning to use the mouse and click the number at the keypad. It can be open with any single digit, but suppose the number is 12345, any idea how it work?

you could try the following:

you could save the code as text variable keycode="12345" and use a text object for player's key playerkeytextobject=""

when player press a key or click on keypad append the digit to playerkeytextobject then compare the playerkeytextobject with your keycode

can you show me a simple example capx?

I tested this few month ago

Is it something like this you want to create?

Yes. Are there any example of this that i can try?

If by example you mean capx, I don't have the capx with me but I used the following:

* objects: mouse, keyboard, spritefont, function, 3 text objects and 1 other sprite

* each number of numpad pressed or each click on spritefont is append in temptext (invisible) and runs a function to copy the digit and the "_" for digit left while len(temptext) is not egal to max lenght of your key

* once temptext lenght = max lenght, a function compare if temptext= keycode and unlock else display "access denied" and restart the user key

Thanks. just found a solution.

Take a look: capx

It can be improve (eg attemps left, better trigger with numpad etc)
