[SOLVED] Changing background when using "Open"

[tobulos1]

Hi!
I have two (almost) identical backgrounds. One with a door closed, and one with a door open (I didn't care to make objects out of the doors).
I want the character to be able to "open" the closed door so the game switches backgrounds to the one with the open door.

Is this possible?
If so, what would be the easiest way to do it? Create a hotspot around the closed door and have the player use "Open"/"Close" on it?
I'm using the 9-Verb template, btw.

Thank you for answers!

You would need to use

Code: ags

SetBackgroundFrame=number; // number is the background frame number (0 is the main frame number)

there would also be other factors to consider like when the room loads you would need to set background frame to display else background will animate... etc

Not quite, it is

Code: ags

SetBackgroundFrame(number);

.
Notice the brackets. It is the function, not a variable.
