Use it

Code for the specimen as it is set up above; it follows your knobs.

JavaScript

import { createAsset } from 'https://gaitkit.com/cdn/viking-longhouse.mjs';

const vikingLonghouse = createAsset();
scene.add(vikingLonghouse);                      // rests on y = 0, front faces +Z

// 'door' pivots on its hinge: -100° to 0° around y
vikingLonghouse.getObjectByName('door').rotation.y = THREE.MathUtils.degToRad(-100);

JSX

import { useMemo } from 'react';
import { createAsset } from 'https://gaitkit.com/cdn/viking-longhouse.mjs';

export function VikingLonghouse() {
  const model = useMemo(() => createAsset(), []);
  return <primitive object={model} />;
}

GDScript

# Import viking-longhouse.glb (download below). Moving parts are separate nodes, pivoted on their hinge.
$VikingLonghouse/door.rotation_degrees.y = -100

// Import viking-longhouse.glb with glTFast (com.unity.cloud.gltfast).
transform.Find("door").localEulerAngles = new Vector3(/* y: */ -100, 0, 0);

`roof`	choice	`turf` `thatch` `shingle`	`turf`	turf (thick grass-grown sod, Iceland and Norway), thatch (straw or reed, Denmark) or shingle (overlapping wooden shingles, rich halls).
`walls`	choice	`stave` `wattle` `turf`	`stave`	stave (vertical oak planks), wattle (woven wattle plastered with pale daub between dark posts) or turf (thick stacked sod walls, as in Iceland).
`door`	range	0 to 1, step 0.05	`0`	How far the plank door in the middle of the +Z wall swings open (0 shut, 1 wide open). Same as rotating the door part.
`posts`	toggle	on / off	`true`	Slanting timber posts propping the long walls from outside, as on the great ring-fortress halls.
