Closing secret passages?

I'm working on a new area and trying to figure out if there is a way to close a secret passage that's been opened? I'm trying to trigger it thru a textblock with a remote action. I'm tried to make it do in specific order for the hidden passage and tried to call it out of order but it stays open.

Yeah those are doors which are being opened and closed by remote actions. I actually used that as a template, the idea comes from that.

Have you tried calling the "remoteaction" twice to see if it will close the passage if it is already open?

So if room 1 is set to a hidden type and put a command in room 1 room command to use a textblock
remoteaction 1 2 0 0;delay 5;remoteaction 1 2 0 0\r\n

will that open the passage wait 5 seconds and then close it?

I had tried this but not with a delay. I will give it a try again.

EDIT:

I just gave it a try only thing the delay did was give me a pause.

might try setting as an action rather than remoteaction or add an action so be like
n 1848 action msg 5 0 0
1847 is room your in secret passage is e so
e 1848 hidden 16 -1 0 0 (-1 means order doesn't matter)
d 1847 remoteaction msg 2 msg 0

after messin around a lil i don't think there is a way to close a secret passage unless can be done via a textblock but kinda doubt it.

I have come to the same conclusion myself. I can't think of any in stock game that close other then time closing them.
