Problem regarding PlayMaker FSM in AC

djeby

Hi guys,

I have an issue. I created a light switch and added a FSM on it.

A simple 2 state FSM. On and Off states with the transitions.

State Off = Light Intensity 0

State On = Light Intensity 2

I then added a Hotspot on the light switch (the object with the FSM), with an interaction containing the Third Party Tool - Play Maker.

I set my PlayMaker FSM and my event to call, but it does nothing. It does not change the state from Light intensity 0 to light intensity 2.

What am I doing wrong? Is there a thing I have to add in my PM FSM that tells the object that the trigger is from Adventure Creator?

Shouldn't be.  Are you defining the FSM to call in the Action, or just assigning the PlayMaker FSM field and supplying an Event to call?

Ok, I managed to call the Turn_On event. It turns on the light, but now, how do I make it turn off if I click it again? 

Should I set a local variable with the light status? On or off. And check the variable and call that Event in PlayMaker?

Unless you want to embed it in a custom script and call that script from AC, then yes - use a boolean variable.  If you want the variable to be synced with a PlayMaker one, you can do so if the variable is Global.
