# Custom Elevator Doors

## Custom Elevator Doors

### Requirements

#### Tools

* [World Builder](https://github.com/justarandomguyintheinternet/CP77_entSpawner/releases)

#### Knowledge

* You need to have a basic understanding of:
  * Using World Builder (Spawning things and [importing](https://wiki.redmodding.org/cyberpunk-2077-modding/modding-guides/world-editing/object-spawner/exporting-from-object-spawner) into WolvenKit)
  * How to build [Custom Elevators](https://wiki.redmodding.org/cyberpunk-2077-modding/modding-guides/world-editing/devices/custom-elevators)

#### Overview

* In this guide, we will build a custom door that opens/closes automatically when your lift arrives, but stays locked when the lift is not at the current floor

#### Setup

* You should already have spawned and linked a custom lift, terminals, and markers - as detailed in the [Custom Elevators guide](https://wiki.redmodding.org/cyberpunk-2077-modding/modding-guides/world-editing/devices/custom-elevators)

### Spawning Devices

* First we need to choose a door. For this example we will use a double glass door
* The door we will use is `base\gameplay\devices\doors\double_door\double_door_glass_k.ent`
  * Spawn it as `Device`, and place it somewhere

{% hint style="warning" %}
Make sure to spawn the door as a Device. (Entity -> Device in World Builder)
{% endhint %}

### Assigning NodeRef

* In order to link and reference the spawned door, it will need it's own unique NodeRef
* Select the door in World Builder, then expand the World Node header and fill the NodeRef field with a unique string

{% hint style="warning" %}
Do not use the same NodeRef name as used in this guide, choose your own unique one instead
{% endhint %}

### Linking Devices

* Next we need to tell the elevator terminal to use your new door.
* First select the terminal for the floor at which you just placed your door
* Go to the Device -> Device Connections header of the terminal
* Add one entry for the new door
  * Fill the device class name field (On the left) with the device class name of the door
    * In our case this would be `DoorControllerPS`, which can also be found under the device header of the door
  * Fill the NodeRef field with the NodeRef of the door that you are linking

### Setting Up Instance Data

* In order for the door to open/close automatically, stay locked when not in use, and be recognized as a lift door, we will need to use entity instance data
* Select the door in world builder and navigate to:
  * `Entity Instance Data / DoorController / persistentState / DoorSetup`
  * under `doorType` select `automatic`
  * under `initialDoorState` select `locked`
  * select `isLiftDoor`

{% hint style="warning" %}
once the automatic setting is selected, the door will no longer function until you import to WolvenKit
{% endhint %}

### Finishing up

* You should now have an automatic door spawned as a device, with it's own NodeRef, and linked to the terminal of your choosing
* Add this to your custom elevator project in World Builder and you are ready to [export](https://wiki.redmodding.org/cyberpunk-2077-modding/modding-guides/world-editing/object-spawner/exporting-from-object-spawner)
* [Import into WKit](https://wiki.redmodding.org/cyberpunk-2077-modding/modding-guides/world-editing/object-spawner/exporting-from-object-spawner)

{% hint style="warning" %}
This process can be repeated for each terminal in your elevator build
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="warning" %}
It is possible to link multiple doors to a single terminal. Simply add another entry in Device Connections of the terminal. Especially useful if your lift opens on multiple sides
{% endhint %}
