Changing text through actionlist

jamesfootlight

Hi,

I have looked through the manual and can't seem to find how to do this, and wondered if you could help?

I need the player to input a six digit number, where each number is a 'text' object within a canvas object.

I would like the player to be able to click on a hotspot and be able to increase he text number by one, and once the correct combination of six numbers is reached, a cutscene is run (ie 375294 starting from 000000)

How would I go about doing this?

Thanks!

The bulk of this work would be done in a custom script, that both stores the combination number and updates the UI Text objects accordingly.  This is not AC-specific, and you should ask this on the Unity forums instead.

To link to a Hotspot, you can use the Object: Send message Action as part of your Hotspot's Interaction.  Let's say your script has a function named "IncreaseByOne", that increases the number by one and updates the Texts.  You can use the Object: Send message Action to call this function - but again, the script itself is not AC-related.

OK thank you, I will try on the unity forums - I guess I could also do this using variables like the sequence puzzle you helped me with, and i could have images of the numbers instead of actual text objects? It would be a bit more fiddly than using a script, but my coding skills are not great

thanks
