So, I am currently making this game where there are roles with abilities. Im trying to add a frost role that can freeze everyone else’s movement for three seconds. How can I possibly accomplish this? (With a game overlay.)
You could make it so the movement meter is set to default off and when you press a game overlay button it broadcasts a relay which sets the movement meter activated. Its actually pretty easy.
You can use a relay and speed modifier or the above
e.g.
new relay
broadcast on: "freeze"
relay when receiving on: "relay freeze"
relay to: all other players
new speed modifier
activate when receiving on: "freeze"
speed: 0
new trigger
activate when receiving on: "freeze"
delay when triggered: 3 sec
when triggered, broadcast on: "unfreeze"
new speed modifier
activate when receiving on "unfreeze"
speed: 1
and whenever the player who is supposed to freeze everyone else uses ability, broadcast on “relay freeze”

I checked and I’m not sure that there is a default off setting. Maybe I’m wrong…
speed modifiers work better for this
Speed modifiers can work but it pretty much only works for one person most of the time, unless I meticulously add zones and EVERYTHING to accomplish this : )
Also, if you wanted a cool down you could make the game overlays hide itself when clicked, show another overlay that’s text saying “Cool-down” and trigger a trigger which after time, sets it back to original, also earlier I had a question about movement meters, and if you set the movement meters to default “Off” it should work.
Could you give me a scenario in which this works?

Thanks, just saying I know all the game overlays, and I have experimented with the movement meter but it sometimes just doesn’t, work?
Here’s my setup:
Here is a link to the help topic I am talking about. https://forum.creative.gimkit.com/t/what-is-default-on-movement-meter/50081
Also for three seconds you would have a trigger for three seconds, then make it relay to certain players turn movement meters off.
Overlay [button pressed → trigger relay] Relay(all other players). Relay [relay triggered → configure player to set speed] speed modifier (x0.0 speed)

Nice! Also, there is no default setting for the movement meter, 
Nice!
Go to all options in the movement meter and scroll. There IS definitely a default setting.
Oh.

Btw, with the speed thing, It’s also going to freeze the freezer…
