My trap doors aren't triggering

[Silhouette 03]

It seems my monster closet doors aren't triggering by the linedefs I tagged in my map. Can anyone with an editor help me(I'm using Doombuilder X)? Is there something wrong or am I just being stupid? Any help would be fantastic

If the problem area is what I think it is, then you have set it up in a wrong direction. As in, opening door means ceiling raises, but in your case ceiling is already on the normal ceiling level, you need to lower the floor.

The floor in the monster closet?

No, the floor in front of it.

Right, thank you!

You were overly generous with linedef specials.

All you need to do is give the door sectors a tag, as you did, tag 3, and then only the triggering linedef gets a tag 3. Not every linedef in sight.

 

 

Also doors have ceiling/floor heights at the floor height
