Playmaker Grenade Detonate Action made by ChatGPT

[mrminico]

For those interested in another solution, when it comes to dead ends and custom actions, I find this approach interesting.

I saw ChatGPT could generate regular scripts and thought... Maybe I should try to see if it could generate PM actions too.

To my surprise, it worked, although this isn't foolproof. I had to look at other playmaker scripts, modify a small amount of code like the namespace and remove/replace other things and it worked!

I'm attaching the action here incase anyone wants to check out what the bot did.

Hi.
ChatGPT works partly, but for example in your action there is no void Reset()
which is still ok, but there is also no Finish();
So the action will never finish

Also its probably better for performance to use a ComponentAction<Rigidbody>
 instead of a FsmStateAction

Try comparing to some existing actions. (search for some rigidbody actions )

Hi Djaydino thanks for the feedback! I did mention it wasn't foolproof so I'm not surprised its missing some essential code such as void Reset or Finish();

Either way, it was a fun tool to mess around with I'm not really looking to integrate this in any of my workflows since I'd rather make a "grenade detonate" myself with all the current actions already available

Just thought it would be a useful resource for some people here

Hi.
Well you could also try to create a custom action by looking to the combined actions you used

it a good practice to look into as you will slowly start to learn some basic C#
Which will make the usage of playmaker even more powerful (ability to create your own custom actions)

I actually learned C# thanks to playmaker

I wonder if it could handle delegates and callbacks. Besides, it builds on the basis of C#, but Unity uses a slightly altered version of it, and Playmaker's scripts for actions also use even more different uses, which I doubt ChatGPT devs have included into their algorithms.

This is really probable.

I also used chatgpt to solve my problem but it didn't really work, so I never used it again.

Never got working code.
