Hello all,
Is there a multiple group door script available out there, or is just a no-can-do scripting wise ?

Unfortunately objects can only check against a single group, so you would need multiple separate objects, communicating via chat message, in order to achieve it. Not sure if such a thing exists, but it is possible.

seperate prims in aa single object may be set to different groups, and polled individually for a match... the problem is that the object can't be taken to invebtory afterwards. set the individual prims with check scripts to their different groups (you'll need to be in all the groups) and then link them. poll them on touch using link messages.

I hadn't realised that was possible. Thanks for the tip, Lightwave and Void!

Tal, Edde...
Whereas multi-group control is do-able, by the aforementioned methods, I've always found a list works better myself.
One way, if you're determined to use groups - and only if auto-return isn't turned on - is to have a door, with a series of "door handles" to the side. one for each group. On touch, if the user matches the group in question, it sends a message to the door, which then opens.
Limits on that are obvious. You have to be in the groups in question, object auto-return must be off and you need a specific switch for each group. But it does make it nice 'n easy to add/remove a group from the access list. Don't like "Munster's Manly Mannaquins" anymore, just delete their switch.

Auto-return would presumably be fine if you own the land directly (i.e. it's not group-owned), and the objects aren't deeded to group?

no need for multiple handlers, link message the av's key to the child prims with groups, they all check that key with SameGroup, if it comes up true, it sends a link message back opening the door, if not it does nothing. result, door only opens for specified group members with active tags for one of those groups... all others are effectively ignored.
