NOTES
There are different kinds of debris we can set up. These include:
ELECTRIC DOORS these doors open after the power is turned on
SLIDING DOORS these doors slide in a direction we set and don't despawn
ROTATING DOORS these doors rotate in a direction we set and don't despawn
REGULAR DEBRIS models that fly into the sky and then delete themselves
All doors and debris we set up are mostly just KVP's we set in Radiant. Only a small portion of this tutorial requires scripting. The SCRIPT_FLAG you see below is what you need to keep in mind, as this SCRIPT_FLAG is what we'll be replacing in our mapname.gsc when we first set up ZONES.
Each door and debris are at least one of the following:
THE DEBRIS/DOOR SCRIPT_MODEL OR SCRIPT_BRUSHMODEL
THE DEBRIS/DOOR CLIP SCRIPT_BRUSHMODEL
THE TRIGGER TRIGGER_USE_TOUCHThe only exception to this is a SCRIPT_STRUCT. Only the regular debris uses these.
In order to get these things, we can open the ENTITY_BROWSER and search for them and just drag them into our map.
You can place multiple models/brushmodels to make your debris/door as detailed as you want, and the same goes for the clip. For the trigger, we can place multiple to have one debris/door open up multiple debris/door.
The map FIVE from BO1 is a good example of this in the starting room - it doesn't matter which door or trigger you activate, both open up.

ENDING
That's pretty much it for doors and debris. Just keep in mind that each door and debris that is DIFFERENT have different TARGETNAMES, unless you want them to open together.
Also remember to change the SCRIPT_FLAGS and the ENTER_FLAG_NAME in your mapname.gsc!
