collision detection test problem

hii all

i am a new to nxogre, i have a question that i better explain it using an example

let say i have a character in the game and the character comes near the door (collision) then when the charecter is near the door i press a key the door opens. simple as that. so i guess i need to get notified when the character touch the door (collide) and i have to check is it the door if it is i play the open door animation.

how to do that??

There are plenty of ways of doing that, using collision callbacks and triggers would do it.

But you do realise it is a physics engine? You can open the door by merely walking into it, as in real-life.

but is there a tutorial in nxogre that shows how to do this (collision callback) or just collision test.

Yep, I can't remember the number 30x I think. It's the one with a bouncing ball.
