  Sorry if this is more of a Unity question. I just thought that since my door logic is based on an AC action list, it would be great if there were a solution that somehow integrated with that.

  If you're currently playing the "open" animation by name, switch to a Trigger parameter in your Animator so that you can then rely on an additional "Side on" bool parameter that - combined with the Trigger - causes one of two door-opening animations to play.

  Test this out by checking/unchecking the bool manually in the Animator window, and it's then just a case of setting this value in-game.

  In AC alone, this could feasibly be done by having Triggers on each side of the door that both run Object: Animate Actions to set this bool to True/False accordingly.

  Otherwise, you could rely on a custom script that updates the value automatically just as the Interaction is run. This can be done by hooking into the OnBeginActionList custom event:

  using UnityEngine;
  using AC;
  
  public class SetDoorSide : MonoBehaviour
  {
  
      public Interaction interaction;
      public Animator animator;
      public Transform door;
  
      private void OnEnable () { EventManager.OnBeginActionList += OnBeginActionList; }
      private void OnDisable () { EventManager.OnBeginActionList -= OnBeginActionList; }
  
  
      private void OnBeginActionList (ActionList actionList, ActionListAsset actionListAsset, int startingIndex, bool isSkipping)
      {
          if (actionList == interaction)
          {
              float dotProduct = Vector3.Dot (door.forward, (door.position - KickStarter.player.transform.position).normalized);
              bool sideOn = dotProduct >= 0f;
              animator.SetBool ("SideOn", sideOn);
          }
      }
  
  }

  Thanks so much. You are a legend. I ended up doing it with triggers attached to either side the door which toggle the bool. I couldn't be happier with how the doors are working now.
  I guess I better get off my lazy butt and go make a five star review for AC.
