Hello TWHL, I know a lot of topics cover this closly but none answer this exact problem or I have been unable to find the answer after looking several hours.

The problem:

I have 2 zones in 1 room. Zone 2 teleports to zone 1 after a delay which begins upon leaving zone 1/entering 2. The tp must turn off imediately after the delay in order to avoid being tp quickly the next time you enter zone 2. Whatever maner turns the tp off after the tp delay should not be reproducible until the delay is over regardless of moving back and forwth between 2 and 1 freely.

My attempts:

I am using a multisource and 2 trigger_multiples so far. The problem with this is I have found no way to turn the multisource off imediately after the delay time on the first t_m. When I have two t_m targeted to the multisource so that one turns it on with delay the other off after a slightly longer delay neither work, independently or together. I also tried using almost every combination of buttons and t_m I could think of but I can never affect the multisource when 2 entities list it as target. I looked at map 14, supposidly the first map in the vault, extensively, however I have been unable to apply its knoledge here.

Thanks for your time.

I'm not Quite sure exactly what you're saying but you want to trigger the multisource to turn off the teleporters? Right?
The trigger multiples dont need names, so if there are names, get rid of them.
I'd say just check your names. Keep them simple, yet descriptive.
All else fails, upload it to the problem map vault.

I set up an example map for you. You needed to control the teleport with a multisource that was controlled by an env_global. That setup allows you to control the reset. Take a look at the example map and let me know if you have any questions.
