told me here that it is impossible to put them together in a single
room. So if I'll have the same question as you are having now, then
I'll keep thinking another way - insert a simple "toilet" guardian on
the place where the toilet must be situated and put any fast moving
guardian before it so Willy could pass it only when in "running mode".
Then put a teleportator in a step before the toilet, so Willy won't
colide with the guardian. Let the teleportator lead you in the second
room that looks immediately like the room in which teleportator is
situated. So the player won't notice teleportation. In the second room -
put a real toilet in front of Willy and put a usual "Maria" guardian.
This trick will be very good, but it needs you to redesign your room a
bit to insert an obstacle that could be avoided only in Running mode.
What do you think 'bout it?
