Example 3: Using the last 4 fields of GetInteractPrompt
(advanced use)

This is used as conditional to display interact prompt.
Basically specify the

  • entity to query
  • true or false
  • script property (needs to boolean)
    or
  • property on entity like visible (also needs to be boolean)

If one of the last two fields are not empty, the script will attempt to check and return true or false. The default is true allowing no data to be true basic script use.

an example of this advanced use can be found in the event trigger package game (it’s remixable).

  • one example using visible
  • one example using doors which uses door animation script for a boolean state to check against

note:

  • nteract will still work, just not display the text to the prompt
  • just something to be aware of
