Visual scripting provides a simple API to trigger custom events from C# script. In the string field, type the event name to listen to in the graph and in the graph, add a UnityEvent unit with a matching name.Īdditional arguments are not supported on Unity events. These are commonly found in GUI components like buttons, but they can also be created in your custom scripts.Ĭonfigure them by selecting an object with a machine and select the Trigger Unity Event method. Use Unity Events to trigger events that have been setup from the inspector. The second type's trigger is the string parameter that is equal to the specified name input. The difference is that the first type listens to all animation events on the object and return the string parameter. In your script graph, add an Animation Event unit (under Events > Animation). With the event selected, choose TriggerAnimationEvent as the function from the inspector. Then, from the animation window, add an animation event. Select an object with a machine and an animator. Use animation events to trigger Bolt graphs when you reach a certain point in your animation.
Use the damage value to subtract health from the receiver object.Ĭustom events do not require a receiver and do not cause an error if there isn't a listener to handle them. Note: The collider that hit with the boulder is the target of our trigger the On Damage event is triggered on all machines attached to that collider. Enter the name of the event exactly as it is sensitive to case and whitespace.įor example, to create a script machine on a boulder that could hit the player, use the force of the impact as the damage.
To trigger the event from elsewhere, use the Trigger Custom Event unit, located right under the Custom Event unit in the fuzzy finder. Note: Indices are zero-based, so the first argument is labeled Arg. The set the argument count, below the name, to 1. Listen to the event by creating a Custom Event unit (under Events). There is a special type of event, the Custom Event that triggers custom events across graphs, along with their custom arguments.įor example, to create a custom event called On Damage that gets called so the character loses health, the event should have one integer argument that indicates the amount of damage to inflict. For example, on the On Trigger Enter event, the other collider that is involved in the collision is an output. The value outputs on events are arguments that are passed from the event, giving you more information about what actually happened. Most often, you'll leave this setting at its default value of Self. For example, some events have a Target setting that determines which object is listening to the event.
Value inputs are options that influence when the event is triggered. New script machines start with both these events by default.Īll events have a single Trigger control output that starts the script when they are triggered.
