Set action in another fsm

[adamt]

As the title says, I was wondering if it was possible to enable/disable an action in another fsm.

I have my PlaymakerGUI fsm displaying a texture overlay when in one of my states, and I need to disable the texture when I'm in another state, in another fsm...

It's action specific too, so turning the entire state off wouldn't work.

Sound possible?

Thanks

You can use the Send Event action to do this or you use the "set fsm" variable actions to flip a bool in the other FSM or something like that as well

A quick way would be to just duplicate the particular state and remove the fsm texture gui action. Then set it up so your other object can make the FSM toggle between the 2 states when necessary.

Thanks for the replies. So many ways you can do something in Playmaker!

I ended up doing it in a quite hacky way... I set the draw textures texture to a variable, then just switched it to none when I wanted it turned off. Probably not very efficient, but it's only a prototype I'm working on
