Mutiple NGUI buttons[SOLVED]

[santokki]

Let's say I have multiple NGUI buttons connected to an FSM.

How do I get the FSM to detect which NGUI button was pressed?

Thank you!

Hi,

 You can't currently, instead, have one fsm per button, and then forward from that fsm an event to that fsm target. Then you will be able to trace that the even comes from a particular gameobject ( because it's been fired by an fsm, not by a script).

Use the action "get event info" to get the sender of this event.

Can you be more specific when you say forward an event to another fsm ... I am new to Playmaker and I don't know what that means. Thank you!

Hi,

 no problem

 So, you receive "NGUI / ON CLICK" global event on a state. Use the action "send event" to send your own global event, let's say "BUTTON CLICKED", so you can send that event "BUTTON CLICKED" from different ngui controls to the same fsm.

 when in an fsm you receive "BUTTON CLICKED", you can know how sent it by using  the action "get event info" and store the "sentByGameObject".

Is it clearer?

bye
