Trigger

-NavyCatZ

The trigger is a very commonly used device. It is mainly used for blockcode but it also has other various uses. In addition to signals, it can also be triggered by being stepped on if its settings allow it.

1: When Triggered, Transmit On: When the trigger is triggered, it will send a signal through the selected channel.

2: Trigger when Receiving On: When receiving on the selected channel, the trigger will be triggered.

3: Trigger Delay: This sets the delay in seconds that the trigger will wait before sending signals when it is triggered. It can be set from 0-120.

4: Visible in Game: This sets if players will be able to see the trigger in the game, but it can still be triggered via stepping on it if its settings allow it.

5: Allowed Team: This sets the team that is able to trigger the trigger. If any other team triggers it, the trigger won’t send signals.

6: Max Triggers: This sets the maximum amount of times the trigger can be triggered. Even by deactivating and activating it this won’t reset. The text box doesn’t have to be filled (leaving it empty will result in it not having a limit) and it can be set from 1-100.

7: Max Trigger Scope: This sets who’s count total toward the max trigger amount will be affected when a player triggers it.

8: Active on Game Start: This sets if the trigger is activated on game start. While deactivated, the trigger cannot send signals. Shown in game, it looks like this while deactivated in comparison to an activated one

Left: Activated; Right: Deactivated

9: Activate when Receiving On: The trigger will activate when receiving on the selected channel.

10: Deactivate when Receiving On: The trigger will activate when receiving on the selected channel.

11: Active Scope: This sets who will be affected when the trigger is activated/deactivated.

12: Trigger by Player Collision: This sets if the trigger is able to be triggered when a player steps on it while it is active.

(Quick note from shdwy, the trigger can be triggered as many times as you are able to step on it, despite the animation seemingly invoking a cooldown.)

(Trigger) Triggered —> (Laser Beam) Activate Laser?

[Badkarma]

because its a game mode where the ad guy has to knockout all of the others he can’t die or get damaged. I’m trying to trap him so I’ll just use bicycle racks

[Aubec7]

well I mean it looks like the trigger is deactivated right now

did you purposefully do it like that?

[Badkarma]

after they buy it the trigger will be activated

[Aubec7]

ah, okay, well do you want the trigger to activate a laser or something or what do you want the trigger to activate?

[Badkarma]

to activate the bicycle racks as bars for the trap

[Aubec7]

oh okay so do this:

trigger activated --> show prop
do that 3 times for every prop
------------------------------
for the vending machine:
-----------------------
item bought --> activate trigger

hope this answers your question

[Badkarma]

half way because this traps the first team too

[Aubec7]

explain a little more, im confused.

[Badkarma]

There is a vending machine that you use a gold key to make the trigger activate but the vending machine I want to put it inside the trap but not capture the person who activated it (also the bad guy can’t buy anything so it’s only the others

[Badkarma]

do you kinda get it now

[Aubec7]

okay so make a team for the bad guys (can be any team) and set it to applied to team bad guys

[Haiasi]

(Lifecycle) Event Occurs > (Relay) Trigger Relay

(Relay) Relay Trigger > (Vending Machine) Deactivate Machine

Make sure the relay are on the enemy team.

(Vending Machine) Item Purchased > (Trigger) Activate Trigger

This makes it so that if a person steps on it, they get trapped.
You can also make the wire “trigger” instead so after a few seconds it’ll capture the person who is in the zone (or not, if there are no people in it)

[Badkarma]

I’ve done that and I have… WAIT A SEC how do you make the trigger so you step on it or is it set by default?

[Aubec7]

thats on by default

[Badkarma]

then I’m just dumb well I can always just put the vending machine out of the trap

[Aubec7]

you can use a relay actually to set it to a specific team

then you can wire the vending machine to relay
