    Create 1 actor and 2 scenes

    on the actor you put:
    Rule:
    > Key: receives a key press: E is: down
    Do:
    > Change Scene: go to next scene

    and put you actor on the first Scene

    What do you mean by inside the actor? Do you mean that your player actor is overlapping with another actor and when you press E, it changes to a different scene?

    I mean front of. Sorry...

    When hero is in front of the actor(door) and press E change scene. If the hero is outside of the door and press E nothing happens. How can I do that?

    Well there is no "front of" detection in GameSalad, but I think you mean when it's on one side of the door. You can check the hero's self.position.X or Y and if it's in the right zone (e.g. When self.position.X > 300 AND self.position.X < 360 if the door is at 330 or so) then allow the player to open it if E is pressed. Or you can have an invisible actor near the door and check for collision (and E is pressed). I'll make you a little demo.

    I think a better way of doing this would be using collision detection.

    If key E is down and actor is overlapping or colliding with the door,
    Then change scene.
