The script (at least the copy I have) connects all generated buttons to its own buttonPress() function; where the logic there determines what to do with each press. You can wrap a condition around all logic in buttonPress(), to have it simply do nothing. The buttons can still be pressed, but none trigger the door.

Example: —Replacement buttonPress()—

Code: Select all

activeButtons = true
function buttonPress(my)
     if activeButtons then   
		--=|-------------------- Compare/or replace with your script's button logic, if different ---

		  local pushed = tonumber(string.sub(my.go.id, string.len(my.go.id) - 1))		  
   		  local buttonAction = {	[12] = function() script_A.script.myFunc(pushed) end,
												[22] =  function() script_B.script.myFunc(pushed) end,
												[32] =  function() script_C.script.myFunc(pushed) end,
                   				}
      	  	  buttonAction[pushed]()

		--=|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
     end
end
	
function setActive(bool) --call with false, when you break/disable the door.
   if type(bool) == "boolean" then	
		activeButtons = bool
   end	
end

thank you for answering
I have deleted the message here, because I wanted to sent a pm first, what am I doing.....

Not sur if I have do this correctly: Can you check please?
the " --* " mark the changes

Is there any other way, to simply destroy the spawned buttons of the script?
I'm worried about the number of buttons that become of no use after that the activebuttons get false.
I've 3 scripts like that, for 3 doors, that make 36 buttons (3x12), that are saved every savegame, well I suppose they are saved like any other buttons?
