Chapter 6 - Checking a Door's State

Checking a door's state is incredibly easy. Each door contains a property named doorState. By reading the doorState property, you can find out whether the door is opened, closed or opening.

Here's an example of finding out the state:

Code:

(if( == (aDoor:doorState) DOOR_OPEN)
Print("The door is open")
)(else
(if( == (aDoor:doorState) DOOR_CUED)
Print("The door is opening")
)(else
Print("The door is closed")
)
)

That sums it up!
