Title: Activate / Deactivate Multiple Game Objects
Post by: joeyjr on August 09, 2011, 12:41:11 PM

I figured it might be use to have an action that can activate multiple game objects so I modified the existing action to work with multiple game objects.
I normally code in javaScript so this is my first attempt at C#, but I tested it and it appears to work fine.  It only took me all day to get it right! LOL, but this Action will save me and hopefully others a lot of frustration by now being able to consolidate all my Activated/Deactivated game objects into a single Action.

Also, it would be useful to have the Action name automatically change to "Deactivate" whenever the activate checkbox is unchecked so that when I'm reviewing all the actions on a particular state it would be easier and quicker to understand what has been coded. If anyone on this forum knows how to add that functionality that would be great!

// store the game object that we activated on enter
// so we can de-activate it on exit.
GameObject activatedgameObjects;


public override void Reset()
{
gameObjects = new FsmOwnerDefault[1];
gameObjects[0] = null;
activate = true;

{
DoActivateGameObject();

Finish();
}

public override void OnExit()
{
// the stored game object might be invalid now
if (gameObjects == null) return;

if (resetOnExit)

if (recursive.Value)
activatedgameObjects.SetActiveRecursively(!activate.Value);
else
activatedgameObjects.active = !activate.Value;
}

}

void DoActivateGameObject()
{
foreach (var gonum in gameObjects)
{
        GameObject go = Fsm.GetOwnerDefaultTarget(gonum);
if (go == null) return;

if (recursive.Value)
go.SetActiveRecursively(activate.Value);
else
go.active = activate.Value;

activatedgameObjects = go;
}

}
}

Hello, this action is great, maybe should be in the official actions, but it shows some warnings on import. Please see attached. Is it possible to be updated?

Hi,

 can you try ActivateGameObjects on the Ecosystem? I think it does the same.

Bye,
