    On a map I'm working on (Sandbox), it'd be really nice if I could make a one-way trap door of sorts. Has anyone made something similar to that before?

    Specifically, I want it to open up from the 'ground'. I suppose I could use pallets and put a shield door above, but I'm not sure how to make the 'hinge' bit work.

    You could use the grav lift trap doors.
    Like the butterfly one of whatever its called.
    I'll look into it.

    That would work pretty well. Vertically, though, you think it'd still work? Also, the way I designed it is that there will be a Man Cannon shooting people up the vent, out the trap door. That won't completely knock it out, will it?

    If you brace it correctly, it won't fly out at all.

    It shouldn't
    and if it does, ask Goatnuts or Adyless to help you out.

    Slightly unrelated.

    I also don't want people to just destroy the pallet so they can jump in. A shield door overlaid on the top, along with instant respawn, should do the trick, right?

    It should, although you might be able to get away with just the instant respawn..

    You could still push it out of the way/hit it without breaking it. Shield door + insta respawn in best.

    One problem though, it cant travel through the shield door, so you would need to leave enough space without having enough that people could chuck a nade down there or something
