Usually, pActivator will be the player that caused something to happen and pCaller the object they used to do so. For example, if a player kills another player, pActivator is the player and pCaller is their weapon, or if the player triggers a door via a button, the button will be the pCaller and the player the pActivator. > 2.

In the door's Use function, pActivator should be the player. --Reedbeta __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Check out Yahoo! Shopping and Yahoo!
