Based on @Lollerobot's and @Reznov's comments, I did some testing and can confirm the issues they are seeing. Even loading from a save and trying the keypad didn't work for me. It might work if you get it right the first time without loading a save, which is what I did initially when you released the map as shown in my first video. I made an unlisted feedback video here: https://youtu.be/cVjhEZ4icHk

Good concept but the keypad at the end didn't work :steamsad:

Very unlucky indeed. I've asked about the problem in the HL:A Mod community discord, and it happens to everyone. Mostly with Vscripts sadly.

It was indeed white! I guess super unlucky with the two both hitting the run hah.

One time my locked doors got unlocked, but it was a very rare occurance. Something about the compiling needs updating, but if that happened I always had to reload or restart the level.

@Lollerobot, did the keypad glow when you pressed a button? With yellow/red/orange colors? If you pressed a key and the light on the keypad was white, then the Vscript had trouble compiling. Something with the engine has a small chance to not compile Vscripts correctly, so in your console it'll say there's a VSCRIPT Error. I've had play tests where the keypad stopped working, and then continued to work, but 90% of play test we're that it was working. This happens to everything, including Locked doors.

@Skummeh I am also using the knuckles controllers.

@Lollerbobot Glad my video was helpful to you and nice feedback. I played and recorded all of the Trapped contest maps in 2 long sessions, and I wasn't sniffing hard for bugs. Out of curiosity, what controllers are you using, since both glitches possibly involve finger tracking (although the keypad one should have worked eventually). I have the Knuckles Controllers that came with the Index.

The map was good, when it worked. I ran in to two problems, of which the first made me go around the apartment for two runs of 20 mins trying to figure it out when it was a glitch.

The first problem was that the key had glitched out of existence in my first two attempts, which after I watched Skummeh's video a bit to see that it indeed was supposed to be there. Third time the charm, it was in there.

From that it was smooth sailings until the number combination.
Not sure if the fault was my clumsy hands which accidentally pushed an extra button when I was trying to do it, but the combination did not work even when typed right. It still didn't after a load back. Once again I decided to watch Skummeh's video to be sure nothing is glitching and it was.

Fantastic map so far! Haven't finished it yet but am thoroughly impressed!
