Help with Swapping States with Triggers
Feb 17, 2013
Ok, I know it is late and I've been in the Story for over 14 hours straight, but I'm pretty sure my programming logic has not left me complelety. I cannot get a simple state swap to happen on an image. My hunch is that I'm thinking about the logic engne incorrectly.
I have a door graphic that I want to swing open when the user clicks on it.
The door graphic has a custom state: s_Open which is a reversed image of the Normal state
Door Trigger 1:
Action: Change State of Door- "picture"
To state: s_Open
When" User Clcks
Object: Door - "picture"
on Condition: Door- "picture's state is Normal
[With just this trigger, all is good...I get an open door]
Door Trigger 2: Action: Change State of Door - "picture" To state: normal When" User Clcks
[When I add this trigger below the 1st trigger, nothing happens at all]
Now if I reverse these in the Trigger stack, the door opens but does not close.
argh!
I worked around the situation with a hotspot but I'm curious why my initial approach did not work
Thanks
Todd
Object: Door - "picture"
on Condition: Door- "picture's state is s_Open

hmmmm... For some reason when I enter the last two lines of the Trigger in the post above, the editor places them below my sig. I tried to edit it to fix it but no go.... code demons are out in force tonight.
