Just FYI:
I made an offline copy of the ZDoom Tech page that you'll find on cdrom in the doom/source directory. There are two files zdtech.zip is in compiled help format and zdhtech.zip which is the html version (if I remember correctly).

If you want the sector to have a particular color when the map starts, then insert the following line in your OPEN script:
Sector_SetColor(sector tag number, Red, Green, Blue);
Use the color chart you obtained to determine the numeric value for each of the three colors. I have to point out that for some reason, ZDooM does not display all the colors on the RGB chart, and instead displays shades of gray for some color combinations. You just have to experiment with the combinations to get the right one.
If you want the sector to get the colored lighting after an action has been completed (say pressing a switch), then assign the switch linedef the script number, and write the same script command as above. An example is:
script 9 (void)
{ Sector_SetColor(14, 32, 32, 224);
}
Only two things are certain: DooM and taxes

This situation appears simple to script, but it's slightly more involved. I presume you want the door that opens to be repeatable (i.e., it opens and shuts whenever the player uses it). The problem it poses is that the message ("Power Offline") will be displayed every time you open the door, even after the power has been turned on by the switch in another room. There is a way to terminate a repeatable script after a certain point, but then the problem is as follows: Using the door causes a script to be triggered, that prints a message and opens/shuts the door. When you terminate the script, you prevent the message from coming up, but you also prevent the door from being opened. There are ways around these problems, but they require the use of several scripts, so I won't go into the details.
If, however, you want the door to remain shut and print the "Power Offline" message until the switch in the other room has been turned on, then the script would be something like:
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// Script 11: Opens door //
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
int poweron;
script 11 (void)
{ if (poweron)
{ Door_Raise(3,16,128);
Terminate;
}
else
print(s:"Access denied.");
Delay(70);
print(s:"Power Offline.");
Delay(70);
print(s:"Please bring power on-line to secure access.");
Delay(70);
}
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// Script 12: Turns power on, and allows door to open //
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
script 12 (void)
{
poweron=1;
print(s:"Power Online.");
}
Script 11 is triggered when the door is pressed, Script 12 is triggered when the power switch is turned on.
(This is a modified version of one of the scripts in some levels I recently completed. In my case I used the script to activate a sliding door, but in the script above I have modified it to open a regular door.)

The below might be wrong, I only recently started doing proper ACS work. Before that all I basically knew how to do was print text and set sector colours (see Morbid DM 1 & 2)
Anyway, If you wanted the door to repeatedly openable and closable, I think you could make it print "Power off-line" when you walk across a linedef just in front of the door, and remove the special which activates this script when you activate the power on switch.
Or, you could make a new texture next to the door (and it'd probably be a good idea to also put it in the room where you turn the power on) which reads "power off-line" which is changed to "power on-line" when you turn the power on.
