I am wondering how do I create the panels like the ones seen in the colab course, where both players get the gun, the panels that open.

I want to create those blue panels but have never figured out how.

NOTE: I am not looking for a way to animate the panels, I know how to do that, I simply just want a way to create the colourful blue panels that are see-through.

Could try invisible, then have the top of the panel textured differently.

Just checked my own map and i just used a invisible brush that is IN the panel... Like so:

However; i havn't been able to get it painted... because as far as i know the normal textures have an underlying code that allows them to be painted... maybe if you made a custom invisible texture with the same code... but i'm no expert on that...

Lostprophetpunk, you can find the thing used in the co-op course under instances/gameplay/door_4_panels. Used them already. But I found out they don't block paint.

But I am not looking for an instance. I am looking how you can make them on an individual basis.
