Are you using GetComponent<PlayMakerFSM>() to get FSM1?
Is FSM1 in a state that responds to "gcol"?
Are you getting errors?

No actually as i stated i was using public PlayMakerFsm to get FSM1.

problem was even though i had declared gcol as a global event i wasnt aware i had to add it as a global transitions as well. Problem solved :)

Thnx for your reply

Cheers :)

Glad you got it working :)

Note, you should only use global transitions if you want to respond to that event regardless of the current state. Sometimes it's convenient to test with a global transition, but then later change it to a local transition for more control... But maybe this doesn't apply in your case...
