Game Devs Explain Why Doors Are One Of The Worst Features To Implement
Who would have thought doors could be such a pain in the ass?
When you think about the most difficult parts of making a game, it s unlikely that the humble door would be front of mind unless you re a game dev who s attempted doors before. A Twitter thread by indie dev Stephan Hövelbrinks, who is working on Death Trash, revealed that doors are notoriously within game development, with developers on titles like The Last Of Us Part 2 and The Witcher 3 chiming in to agree.
Hövelbrinks explains that the biggest issues arise from doors being a dynamic funnel and block in the pathfinding, potentially locked, potentially destructible, but in general because they sit potentially between any game interaction or character to character situation from here to there.
