# Animated & Connected Doors<\/p>\n
Add a fancy opening and closing animation to your doors!
\nTwo connecting doors will open together if only one side is opened (and closed).<\/p>\n
All animations and door connections work on manual opening\/closing and also on redstone impulses like buttons, pressure plates, redstone, … This will also work on iron doors, so only one side needs to be powered.<\/p>\n

## Credits & QA
\nThis datapack was originaly started by Scommander and discontinued
\nI picked it up and optimizied a few things and also ported it into the newer versions to support all doors again.
\nIf you have any questions or need Animated Doors for a newer version i did not updated yet hit me up on Discord.<\/p>\n
**Q:** My doors are invisible!
\n**A:** On first installation, all previous placed doors needs to update once before they are visible. Just look at them once.<\/p>\n
**Q:** There are floating iron ingots now! \/ My doors are not animated!
\n**A:** If you see floating iron ingots at doors or your doors simply are not animated you need to activate the resource pack.<\/p>\n
**Q:** How do i uninstall Animated Doors?
\n**A:** To uninstall Animated Doors you need to enter `\/function anim-door:uninstall` in every region where doors exist or simply remove the datapack and enter `\/kill @e[tag=_betdor_marker]` everytime you find a region that was not loaded yet.<\/p>\n
**Q:** How do i add custom\/modded doors? First, unzip the data-pack & resource-pack folders to edit all files inside more easily. You will need the mod-key and door type key for this. Press F3+H to enable item IDs in Minecraft and hover over any item. You will see ` ## Let’s start with editing the resource pack:<\/p>\n > **NOTE** – This method only work if your mod follows the vanilla style of adding blocks!<\/p>\n First navigate into the folder “assetsminecraftmodelsblocktype“. There are two files (left and right) for each door type. Copy both files for any door type and rename it to ` At last, navigate into the folder `assetsminecraftmodelsitem` and open the `iron_nugget.json` file. { “predicate”: {“custom_model_data”: 1001}, “model”: “ Remember the numbers you assigned to your door! You will need those later and i will mention them with “ ## Editing the data pack<\/p>\n It will seem like a lot work but it’s mostly just copy pasting stuff from a to b.<\/p>\n At first, open the data pack folder and navigate to `dataanim-doorsfunctions`. Here you will find the `.index.md` file, it’s like my own little cheat code. Inside are all files that needs to be edited.<\/p>\n — — — — — — — ## Data pack functions done!<\/p>\n All technical stuff is done! Congrats! Now you just need to tell Minecraft whether your door is an iron door (only usable by redstone) or wooden door (usable by players & redstone)<\/p>\n Navigate to `dataanim-doorstagsblocks`, open `valid-door.json` and add ` ## That’s it! Door open & close animation. Connects double doors to open simultaneously.

\n**A:** This involve some editing of the data- & resource-pack files, but i’ll try to guide you through:<\/p>\nGuide to add custom doors<\/summary>\n
\nNext, open both files in any text editor and replace the top and bottom texture with the path to the path of your door like the following:
\n“`json
\n{
\n “parent”: “minecraft:block\/main\/right_hinge”,
\n “textures”: {
\n “top”: “
\n “bottom”: “
\n }
\n}
\n“`<\/p>\n
\nScroll to the bottom and add for each door you want to add a new entry. I suggest to count up from 1000 to prevent incompatibilities with future updates:
\n“`json
\n{
\n “parent”: “item\/generated”,
\n “textures”: {
\n “layer0”: “item\/iron_nugget”
\n },
\n “overrides”: [
\n …<\/p>\n
\n { “predicate”: {“custom_model_data”: 1002}, “model”: “
\n ]
\n}
\n“`<\/p>\n
**Congratulations!** You finished the resource pack!<\/p>\n
\n`setup\/on_reload.mcfunction` -> Add new scoreboard to track door. Add the following line below the first block:
\n“`js
\nscoreboard objectives add _betdor_
\n“`<\/p>\n
\n`change\/
\n`setup_type\/
\n“`js
\nexecute if block ~ ~ ~ #anim-doors:valid_door[hinge=left] run data merge entity @s {ArmorItems:[{},{},{},{id:”minecraft:iron_nugget”,Count:1b,tag:{CustomModelData:
\nexecute if block ~ ~ ~ #anim-doors:valid_door[hinge=right] run data merge entity @s {ArmorItems:[{},{},{},{id:”minecraft:iron_nugget”,Count:1b,tag:{CustomModelData:
\n“`<\/p>\n
\n`as_player.mcfunction` -> Add player tracking by tracking your scoreboard created in the first step. Add the following line below the first block:
\n“`js
\nexecute if score @s _betdor_
\n“`<\/p>\n
\n`fake_change.mcfunction *2` -> Here we need to edit two things. In the first big block add the following line
\n“`js
\nexecute if block ~ ~ ~
\n“`
\nand in the last big block add the following line
\n“`js
\nexecute if score type_check _betdor matches
\n“`<\/p>\n
\n`placed.mcfunction` -> Simply add the following line before the last command:
\n“`js
\nscoreboard players reset @s _betdor_
\n“`<\/p>\n
\n`setup_door.mcfunction` -> Last thing we need to do is actually loading the door. Just add the following line to the first block:
\n“`js
\nexecute if block ~ ~ ~
\n“`<\/p>\n
\nNow you either open `iron_door.json` or `wooden_door.json` and add the same there too.<\/p>\n
\nYou successfully added your custom door to the pack! You can share your work with others on our Discord, we love to see new additions \u2665
