I’ve been trying to make a few buttons require that they be pressed in a certain order, and hitting them out of order resets the whole thing, causing the player to start the sequence again.
Originally to help out the artist, I wanted to make it so in editor, you could place a set of buttons, their order in the sequence, and a “frequency” so it would know which set of buttons it would correlate to.
Right now to get one done, I’ve been trying to make it go through a series of Branches with true false statements, but there has to be a better way to do that, especially because I can’t get it to work with a button that needs to be hit multiple times.
So what’s the cleaner easier way to do this that I am clearly missing?
Thanks in advance!
A note, I’m still moderately new to using Blueprints.
hello,
maybe giving each button a number and create an array with the code number from o to end and do a loop comparison. Each time x value = x value then x = x+1 else back to start. or only setting a var false when one is wrong and check the var at end to reset or not, depend if you want reset when typing or at the end only.
EDIT: Nevermind, I am a big ol dumb. I realized the for loop was never stopping, and just executed the whole thing in one go instead of on button press. So I added a For Break instead of normal For, and it fixed the issue, thank you to everybody
So I managed to get the array comparison working, but I have a set of steps that each block does once it’s been hit in the right order. Now, when I go to use a Switch on Int, it for some odd reason activates all of them at once. For no real reason, despite having an int to compare to switch.
Today I decided I would take a look into this. I know you’ve all ready got a solution but below is any overview of what I came up with. You can define the length of a combo with a variable along with the possible combos in one nice array (custom strut). It also supports any number of key inputs. If anyone would like a tutorial let me know.
Hey I’m trying to build a system like this (with the player running around hitting buttons in a certain order and resetting on fail) and am fairly new. Could you go over this array approach quickly? The image you uploaded is broken it seems.
