I have created a script to call the door, but nothing happens (no
error messages) when I choose the option from the doors menu. I have
changed the ini file to call the script.

In the script, I added a line before the door is called to copy the
door.sys file (actually all contents of) the node directory to a
backup directory so I could see what was being created. There is
nothing, no door.sys or anything, in the backup directory.

Is there something I need to do to Magicka to get it to create the
door.sys file when it calls the door script file? Do you have an
example script file you would use to call GD with?

Thanks!

Sounds like a problem with you menu file, the dropfiles get created
regardless of whether a script is successful, the Menu entry should look
like this:

HOTKEY 1
COMMAND RUNDOOR
DATA Galactic Dynasty

The doors.ini entry would look like:

[Galactic Dynasty]
command = /path/to/your/script.sh
stdio = true

Make sure you restart magicka so it can read the new ini files.

LOL, once I got the menu entry corrected, and overcame my inability to
spell, <GRIN> the game fires right up!!!!

THANKS!!!
