    this script will allow you to set level restrictions
    on any doorway in your module. simply place it in the
    "OnAreaTransitionClick" event of the door. (it should
    work on triggers also)

    **you do NOT have to change this script**

    to set the minimum level allowed to pass through the
    doorway, follow the directions below:
        -open the door properties and go to the advanced tab
        -hit the variable button
        -add a new variable named "TBDOOR_MIN_LEVEL" (without quotes)
         on the doorway
        -switch the Type pulldown menu to int
        -place the minimum level allowed in the value column
        -now select ok and the minimum level will be set to the
         number you selected. if a lower level pc tries to enter,
         they will be given a message telling them they are too scared
         to enter.

     there is also a function to to do a will save fear check if
     the pc passes the level check. if you do not want to use this
     function, simply ignore the rest of this and it will not run. 
     if you are interested, follow the directions below:
     
        -open the door properties and go to the advanced tab
        -hit the variable button
        -add a new variable named "TBDOOR_WILL_SAVE" (without quotes)
         on the doorway
        -switch the Type pulldown menu to int
        -place the desired difficulty of the will save in the value column
        -now select ok and the difficulty will be set to the
         number you selected. if the pc fails this check, they will be
         given a message telling them they are too scared
         to enter.
