Hi,
The docs for Pit:addTrapDoor and Door:addPullChain functions say:

This function is intended to be used internally by the editor. Do not attempt to add a XXX dynamically to a YYY from a script because it may cause problems with save games. This function is listed here only for completeness.

Sadly they would be useful functions for things like on-the-fly generated dungeons or similar situations (and, I won't hide the fact, my treasure chests ).

The questions are:

• Is the warning still valid ? I know you have changed many things regarding what's saved and what not and how and I was wondering if this is still the case
• Are they safe to use one-time in a scripting entity outside of any function scope (that is, the code that is auto-run at first startup) ? I ask because this seem to be about the same time dungeon.lua is executed, but you know the details

Thank you very much in advance!

Petri thinks that they should work with save games now but he's not 100% certain.

You probably can try them out by adding a pullchain/trapdoor in level script and then seeing if they persist between saving and loading the game.

Thank you very much!

Will try and post the result here so that everyone will be informed for the future.

Thanks again

They work ok and survive save/load well, even if activated outside the "autorun" path (for testing I've attached the addPullChain call to a wall_button and it worked).

However, pits spawned at runtime show the original floor until a save/reload cycle is done.
