Advanced Drag and Drop Question

Apr 28, 2019

By Ken Uhde

Hi,

I am trying to create an ungraded drag and drop interaction where the user will bake a cake. The steps involved are:

1.Step 1 instructions appear (timed)

2. Drag and drop the eggs, milk, flour, and sugar into a bowl.

3. Step 2 instructions appear (triggered) once all items have been dropped into the bowl

4. Move bowl to the oven

5. bowl disappears and a cake will appear.

I have figured out all steps except #3. The user can still move the bowl (prompting step 2) without any or all items being placed into the bowl. Any ideas on what I can do to fix this?

Thanks

You will likely have to break it down into steps or set the bowl to disabled until all the other objects have been dropped

Hey Phil. Thanks for responding. I'm still pretty new, so I'm not sure how to disable a function.

I also want the textbox "drag the bowl to the oven.." to appear only after all four items have been dropped into the bowl.

Here is a link to the project:

Hi Ken. Cute project! You can set the initial state of the bowl as disabled, and then trigger to change the state of the bowl when the other objects are in their dropped state.

Can you share your .story file here to get some hands-on help?
