The simple button...

... isnt simple

Hi there,

i've set an entity of the simple_button in my room.


  Unbenannt.JPG (Size: 180.64 KB / Downloads: 299)

And some simple code to test.

Code: (Select All)

void Button1Func(string &in entity, string &in type)
{
    AddPlayerBodyForce(20000,0,0,true);
}

void OnStart()
{
    SetEntityActive( "button_simple_1",true);
    SetEntityConnectionStateChangeCallback("button_simple_1", "Button1Func");
    SetEntityInteractionDisabled("button_simple_1", false);

    
}

My problem that the Button isn't usable, i mean the "Useicon" doesn't appear, so i cant test my code.

I thought, at least i could press the button, because its a button...

... but that isn't

Tips and Hints are welcome as always

Unfortunately the button isn't a real entity with which you can interact.
Therefore you have to make your own button with the model editor.
Just load it up in the model editor and then under the menu "Settings"->"User defined variables" change its Type from "Object" to "Button".
Then save it under another name in the same folder.
Now you can use your new, useable button.

thx

it works, but as far as i see is there no animation for pushing the button, so i use a lever now.

You're welcome.
What you could do would be to script the button entity to move when being interacted with by the player.
Don't ask me how exactly that works though, I haven't delved into moving objects via scripts yet.^^
