On the top left hand corner select "This Event" so the door will be the event moving. And put "Play SE '024-Door01', Face left, wait 1, face right, wait 1, face up.
It should look like...

Its a good tut, but how do you make it so that you have to walk through the door in order to teleport?

Lovely tut explaining how to create a door.
Great job Irock.

I find that doors pretty much depends on what you like.
I'll contribute two of my doors to this topic. I won't post a tut on how to use them though...

Thank you for contributing. Now I make my doors differently, I add no transition and move the player up one after he enters. ;D

Choose "Collision" instead of "Action Key"
