Well make a trigger that registrer when the kay is pressed. Then make a condition checking that it is the player you want it to be which presses the key, then if key is pressed equal to true, open gate.
(btw actualy thing there is a key tutorial out somewhere, if not then I can post the triggers if your having trouble)

Or, if you are talking about using a physical inventory key to open a gate, just have a condition that checks if the hero entering the gate region has the key in his inventory, unlocking the gate if he does.

• Melee Initialization
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit enters Region 000 <gen>
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • ((Entering unit) has an item of type Key of Three Moons) Equal to True
      • Then - Actions
        • Destructible - Open (Last created destructible)
      • Else - Actions
        • Do nothing

Thar ya go.

If what he needs is what Tevin suggests... but realy no need to make it with the then/else actions... just will do fine..:

• Events
  • Unit - A unit enters Door Key Region <gen>
• Conditions
  • ((Entering unit) has an item of type Key of Three Moons) Equal to True
• Actions
  • Destructible - Open (Locked Gate (it is a variable)

And the other trigger would be something like:

• Events
  • Player presses a key (cant remember exact name but something similar
• Conditions
  • Pressed key equal to (lets just say) D
• Actions
  • Destructible - Open (Locked Gate (It is a variable)

Done, for the exact trigger to key's youcould see it in some keybased maps, like pirate tag. (hostet projects)

Hmmm look i did all u say but when my hero doesent have the key to open the gate he can atack the gate ? And i tryed to open the gate with the key and it did work.I made the gate 9999999 HP so no hero can pass

you can use the "Destructible - Make Gate 0001 Invulnerable" action at the Map Initialization trigger to make the gate unattackable.

 

[RED BARON]

Maybe an even better trigger would be one that would register when the gate is attacked, then write a text message saying you need key, then set gate life to 100%, then you can still atack it but you would never destroy it, but else the below trigger is the right to use...

 

[Eleandor]

if you attack the gate and it says "cannot attack because the target is invulnerable" (which is a message that automatically appears on invulnerable targets), the average person will know a key is required...

 

[RED BARON]

Well you can actualy change that message to key need in game interface... if you realy want it to be invulneable. Just said what he also could do..

 

[Eleandor]

I never said your ideas were stupid , I just pointed out that there are other, maybe more obvious, solutions...
