Hi! I will be teaching you how to make a door opening and closing using Roblox’s Currently in Beta “Proximity Prompt”.
Whats Proximity Prompt?
The in-beta proximity part allows you to interact with a item as in holding/pressing E to print a message in the Output. For Xbox its X,for mobile you can just hold/tap to do, and for computer you can hold/press E. You can always change the keybinds.
Before starting…
You must have Proximity Prompt Enabled in the beta settings. Please follow the stuff what it does on the screenshots.
Next press Beta Settings
Now scroll down to “Proximity Prompt Beta” and enable it. It might want you to restart studio.
You are done getting ready.
Open a baseplate or any thing.
Make a Part and size it how ever you like. Name it door after
Add a proximity prompt to the door model/part.
Now set the properties to this:
HoldDuration: How long you have to hold to interact. 0 for just tap.
GamepadKeyCode: For Xbox users they have to press X to interact
KeyboardKeyCode: What key for PC users have to press in-order to interact.
MaxActivationDistance: How far you can interact.
^^^ If you want, only edit those. Do not edit other properties.
Add a script into the Proximity Prompt. You may edit the scripts name if you would like to.
Write this into it or Copy And Paste
Script
local ProximityPrompt = script.Parent
local Door = script.Parent.Parent
ProximityPrompt.Triggered:Connect(function()
if ProximityPrompt.ActionText == “Open” then
Door.Transparency = .5
Door.CanCollide = false
ProximityPrompt.ActionText = “Close”
else
Door.Transparency = 0
Door.CanCollide = true
ProximityPrompt.ActionText = “Open”
end
end)
Script end
After this you should be able to open and close your door.
The script may fail if the door is not achored.
