Physics Interaction: Doors and Locks

[Nicat]

Hi Nicat. Is it possible to send an unlock msg via trigger as opposed to picking up a key? I wanted one bp to send the openable or lockset and unlock msg. Or open message if possible? (have the door open on its own after an event.

Hi, yes you can do both.

Just add these to your trigger BP. Lockset and Openable variables are types of BP_LocksetPhysics and BP_OpenablePhysics. These variables are used to pick the Lockset/Openable you want to unlock/open.

1) Unlocking Lockset without a key:

Note: you can ignore the Interact node if you just want to remove the key requirement.

2) If there are more than one Lockset on a door which you want to unlock. You can just do this instead of the above:

3) Opening door. This is not supported by default but can be achieved easily:

Note: change 10 to the velocity you want the door to open at.
Note2: if door has multiple locksets, connect the Completed node of above setup to this.

Hope this helps! If you need further assistance please use the support email (you must be logged in to see the email address).

Integration is same as PDF or this video. You can add components and input nodes to ALS_BaseCharacter, MannequinCharacter or to your own custom character.

Here is the video of it working with ALS V3 and setup overview:

Hope this answers your questions. Have a nice day!

thank you very much

thank you very much
Use advanced locomotion V3
Is it possible that it works?
many things have changed the truth
I would like to see a video that integrates this with a character
I really want to buy
but I would like an extra video
I have seen how it works
has a guide
but a video is missing integrating this
I know that some users who have an advanced character would be interested to see this

Thank you for your interest!

Advanced Locomotion System's dev has said this: Also, this is confirmed to work with Advanced Locomotion System v2. So, the setup in the Tutorial PDF should work without any issues.

If you face any problems integrating, please let us know at the support email (you must be logged in to see the email address).

... everything you could do with the (Third Person) template can be done with this.

I'm very interested in buying this product
my question is
how is it possible to integrate into the project called
advanced locomotion
you may do a tutorial

Hi Nicat. I think you forgot to add a locked sound option? My testers are confused weather which doors are usable. Can you add this for an update?

Hi,

From what I understood, you want to play a sound when you interact with a Lockset which requires a key, right? If so, here is how you can achieve that:

1) In Blueprints folder -> BP_LocksetPhysics -> "Event Graph" - "Extra Events" comment box you'll find the "Requires Key" event,
2) Add a "Play Sound at Location" node connected to that event,
3) Create a new variable, rename it to "Requires Key", drag and drop it into "Audio" category, change its type to "Sound Base", make it Editable by clicking the "eye" icon next to it, get and connect that variable to "Sound" input,
4) Get the "SourceLocation" variable and connect it to "Location" input.

Here is a screenshot:

This will make it possible to choose a sound to play when a lockset requires a key.

If this isn't what you said, please send an email with a bit more detail to support address which you can find here (you need to be logged in to see it).

Thanks for suggestion!

Someone else is bound to ask, so I might as well : Multiplayer support?

There is no multiplayer support and we don't have definite plan for it, however it is not out of question either
