As quoted from the manual:


ANTITRIGGER – Turns off whatever was activated by a corresponding
trigger. It cannot be used on timed doors. Since one of these triggers
overrides all other triggers, use it to your advantage. If two antitriggers
are needed on the same square, use one antitrigger and one normal
trigger – the normal trigger automatically becomes an antitrigger, thus
creating two antitriggers…a neat way of getting around the “no two special
triggers on one square” rule.

It is not possible to put an antitrigger on a switch trigger because they are 2 special triggers. You can make a trigger with a flyby-cam with an antiheavy-trigger for the door. Or you can create a flipmap with the antitrigger in the flipmap. With the switch trigger the flipmap. Or press 1,2,3,4 and 5 in the OCB for the door to be open. When you trigger it it will close. Hope this helps...

Si tu utilises certains types de switchs comme les Leviers ou ceux que lara peut abaisser et lever, lorsque ceux-ci sont reliés à une porte, le simple fait d'activer le switch ouvre la porte et la ferme en le réactivant. Tout ça en utilisant qu'un seul trigger au même endroit.

Maintenant, pour fermer une porte ouverte par un autre switch, il n'existe que 2 manières d'y parvenir : soit avec un a ntitrigger, soit avec une caméra de type flyby.

- Pour la 1ere, comme on ne peut pas placer d'antitrigger sous un switch, il faut alors déclencher un "trigger triggerer" sous lequel on déclenche l'antritrigger de la porte lorsque Lara passe dessus (pas toujours joli mais des fois obligatoire).

- Pour la seconde, place un heavyantitrigger sous la caméra en n'omettant pas de sélectionner le nombre 14 dans sa fenêtre OCB.

J'espère que tout ceci t'aidera !

I haven't tried this, so I don't know if it will work, but...

Put the antitrigger on any block. Then place a Trigger Triggerer on the same block. Put the trigger for the Trigger Triggerer on the block where the switch is. Finally, put the switch trigger, to trigger the TT.

I've got one.


It's true you can't palce a trigger and an antitrigger on the same block for that overlaps special triggers. But you can place a trigger for a trigger triggerer to activate an antitrigger. But then that's just called an antitrigger triggerer. But if you put a trigger for a trigger triggerer to trigger a heavytrigger to trigger an antitrigger, That's a heavytrigger antitrigger. Get it?
