Author | Topic: TRIGGER_TRIGGERER
Malte Member Posts: 120 From:Germany Registered: Apr 2002 | posted 05-02-2002 01:42 PM Hi I've heard that you can trigger triggers with the TRIGGER_TRIGGERER. Is it right that you can trigger special triggers (like FLIPEFFECT's) that way and Lara doesn't have to step on these triggers? Could you tell me how I can setup such a trigger construction ?

Then press the T button next to B ( under R-W-M ) The chosen square becomes blue. Now put a Trigger_Trigger ( TT for short ) On that square. Now example, Put a rolling ball on the path of that trigger. As trap. Put at the end of the hall a key, Now set the trigger for the Rollingball ON de square where you marked it with T ( blue ). Then set a trigger for TT on the key. Now.....when lara walks in this hall and walks over the blue square ( TT ) The ball wont be triggered, Cause the Trigger under this Blue square is Inactive. When she walks towards the key and walks over the Trigger for the TT The Blue Square will become Active When lara goes back and walks over the trigger at blue square the rolling ball will come ! This way you can controll when the trap is activated or ready to be activated.... Hope it was clear enough [This message has been edited by Yasin (edited 05-02-2002).] IP: Logged

But I think somebody mentioned that TT itself can trigger the triggers under it. But I can't find the post (I think Tomb_Raider_Nut mentioned that in her Von_Croy Ai manual, too, but she doesn't say how it's setuped). IP: Logged

Malte Member Posts: 120 From:Germany Registered: Apr 2002 | posted 05-03-2002 06:16 AM That would be nice if it worked. I would not have to use cameras or rollingballs to antitrigger a door for example with a switch. So, question: Did I missunderstand it or is it really possible. IP: Logged
Yasin Member Posts: 395 From:Netherlands Registered: Jan 2002 | posted 05-03-2002 07:53 AM Maby if we dont ad the blue square and simply put a heavy trigger under it. Maby the TT will behave like a object that can trigger heavy triggers. Worth to try, i will test it soon IP: Logged
