Your phucking kidding me!!! :D DoomBuilder has the names of the keybits swapped for keycards :) it says: red key, YELLOW key, BLUE key, red skull, BLUE skull, YELLOW skull :)

damnit... gherkin, ik weet waar je huis woont ;)

thanx guys ;) i really really didn't notice :)

He clearly meant 14512 because that is exactly the type he described (although I think he got the keys wrong. Maybe that was the problem.)

Was 144512 a typo, or do you really mean 144512?

They do definitely not. Map12 of Doom2 has a door with a red lock but the key only appears in multiplayer so in single player the door is one way only.

I tested this and found the following:

14512 requires a blue key, not a yellow one.
14576 requires a yellow key, not a blue one.

Both linedefs work perfectly in ZDoom. I cross checked with PrBoom and there it worked too.

If that's the way things are, then it definately shouldn't be. Using scripting, you can make a yellow key appear in any number of ways, none of which require the key to be placed on the map in an editor.
