Thank you for choosing my tutorial for making moving gates. First, let's get a gate! If you don't have a gate custom mapped, you need to figure that out before using this tutorial. You need to have a gate mapped in.

Let's define the variable for the gates globally.

Code:

new SFPDGate1;
new SFPDGate2;
new bool:gStatus;

The SFPD gates are huge, so I have two gates here.

Now let's define some custom mapping to serve as our gates, shall we?

Code:

    SFPDGate1 = CreateDynamicObject(969, -1623.43, 688.50, 6.37,   0.00, 0.00, 180.00);
    SFPDGate2 = CreateDynamicObject(969, -1631.32, 688.49, 6.37,   0.00, 0.00, 180.00);

This uses the new SFPDGate1; to define some custom mapping that I have under OnGameModeInit. This will be very critical for the next command:

Code:

CMD:gate(playerid)
{
    if(IsPlayerInRangeOfPoint(playerid, 20.0, -1631.0911,688.6709,7.1875) && gStatus == false) // Grabs your location, you have to be near the gate to open it. And if the gate is closed
    {          
      MoveDynamicObject(SFPDGate1,  -1639.82, 688.49, 6.37, 2.9); // Moves Gate 1
      MoveDynamicObject(SFPDGate2,  -1639.82, 688.49, 6.37, 2.9); // Moves Gate 2
      gStatus = true;// Tells the script the gate is open
    }
    else if(IsPlayerInRangeOfPoint(playerid, 20.0, -1631.0911,688.6709,7.1875) && gStatus == true) // Grabs your location, you have to be near the gate to close it. And if the gate is open
    {
      MoveDynamicObject(SFPDGate1,   -1623.43, 688.50, 6.37, 2.9); // Moves Gate 1
      MoveDynamicObject(SFPDGate2,   -1631.32, 688.49, 6.37, 2.9); // Moves Gate 2
      gStatus = false; // Tells the script the gate is closed
    }
    return 1;
}

There you go! You now have some movable gates. Obviously you need to make your own system with your own gates, but now you have a general idea on how it works.

Note: If you do not use "CreateDynamicObject" and just use "CreateObject" You need to use "MoveObject" instead of "MoveDynamicObject"

You should have called it Making Simple Moving Gates since it's only one gate

Changed! Thanks for the feedback!
