Did you make sure that one of them is off on game start?

    1. Did you make a trigger loop? Each trigger enables/disables a specific Piranha Plant. (meaning one trigger enables/disables the smaller plant, while the other trigger manages the bigger plant)
    1. Do you have a Lifecycle to start the trigger loop on Game Start

      (That’s what the little pink device is)
    1. Check your channels and make sure they line up with each other. (no spelling differences)

What exactly didn’t you understand? I’m always looking for opportunities to make things easier to comprehend.

In the guide they say: ‘‘When Triggered: Disable Phir’’, but what is a phir? I am Dutch so I didn’t understand it…

And the same with: The Short Vine:
Show Prop When Receiving on: Enable Phir
Hide Prop when Receiving on: Disable Phir

Oh, that’s just the channels. “Phir” is short for Piranha. You can put what you want in there as long as it matches up appropriately.

O haha🤣 But why are the triggers wired then? If you use channels? And the same with that lifecycle…

Oh wait… I think I understand! Thank you! I will try it again now, if something goes wrong I will ask for it again. :+1:

The triggers are wired to create an infinite trigger loop, the channels in the trigger enable and disable the different Pirahna Plants.

Wires are simple for small things, like connecting two devices together. Channels are best for bigger things, like animation for example.

Yeah. Just make sure the channels in each trigger are different from eachother.
Example:

The Trigger on the left:
Channel: When Triggered: Disable Piranha Plant

The Trigger on the Right:
Channel: When Triggered: Enable Piranha Plant

The Shortest Vine:
Channel: Show Prop When Receiving on: Enable Piranha Plant
Channel: Hide Prop when Receiving on: Disable Piranha Plant

The Longest Vine:
Channel: Show Prop When Receiving on: Disable Piranha Plant
Channel: Hide Prop when Receiving on: Enable Piranha Plant

The Head on the Shortest Vine:
Channel: Show Prop When Receiving on: Enable Piranha Plant
Channel: Hide Prop when Receiving on: Disable Piranha Plant

The Head on the Longest Vine:
Channel: Show Prop When Receiving on: Disable Piranha Plant
Channel: Hide Prop when Receiving on: Enable Piranha Plant
