Opening a door via .questphase

Since we are in the quest section I'll show how to open it within .questphases and using "native" nodes.

1. Create a basic structure for our quest

1. Find the door you want to open. Make sure it's not a texture (collisionNode). For example, i took a maelstrom gate.

   From there we need its NodeRef.Its global identifier. You can find it on its WorldSector.

   

   
2. Create pauseCondition on distance and interactiveObjectManager in our .questphase

   
3. Showcase

   

Worth mentioning.

To close the door you need to create another condition and use ForceClose and ForceLock respectively.

Door can be Sealed so pay attention to this too.
