Title: How do I create additional entry points?
Post by: DannyB on July 07, 2012, 04:29:30 AM

Hello everybody,

Just purchased playMaker, and starting to play with it. I have watched many of the great tutorial videos.

On the playMaker homepage there is something that looks like additional entry points to the FSM - with the same color as the START node. See this screenshot (DoAttack, DoStartClash etc.)

What are these, and how do I create them?

Thanks in advance.
Danny

They are Global Transitions, you create them by right-clicking on a State and selecting Add Global Transition. To make one of your events Global (so it can be used in a Global Transition) you click on the Global flag checkbox to the left of the event in the Events panel or Event Browser.
