keyboard event problem

Okay so here is the set up:

Trigger1:
Player presses the left arrow key
NO CONDITIONS
set intvar to 1
do some action

Trigger2:
Player presses the left arrow key
CONDITION:
intvar is equal to 1
Action:
set intvar to 2
Do some other action

Trigger3:
Player presses the left arrow key
CONDITION:
intvar is equal to 2
Action:
Do yet another action


The problem: When I press the left arrow key, it immediately runs trigger 3. Meaning with one press it is setting the int from 0 to 1, from 1 to 2, which is satisfying the condition for trigger 3 (and skipping the actions for 1 and 2):banghead:.... What can I do to fix that? So that it keeps track of how many times I press it?

change activation at the beginning to false (over the field you see the trigger) and then add the action that if its clicked once turn on the next trigger....

how about

Trigger1:
Player presses the left arrow key
NO CONDITIONS
turn off this trigger
turn on trigger 2
do some action

Trigger2: (initially off)
Player presses the left arrow key
Action:
turn off this trigger
turn on trigger 3
Do some other action

Trigger3: (initially off)
Player presses the left arrow key
Action:
Do yet another action

EDIT: happy said the same thing but i hope this make it a little easier to understand

Doesnt seem to work..

Seems like it is doing this:

Turns trigger 1 off, and trigger 2 on

immediately turning 2 off and turning 3 on

and running 3's actions

Skipping 2

edit: if i disable 3 entirely it runs 2.. but not 1

Re-Edit: FIXED I created quick .05sec waits at the start of each trigger.. I guess this gives it enough time to recognize the event has completed and doesn't skip to the next.. or its a fluke.. in any case it is working

I know it is fixed but still... why use 3 triggers for something that can be done with 1 trigger?

Trigger:
  • Melee Initialization
    • Events
      • Player - Player 1 (Red) Presses the Left Arrow key
    • Conditions
    • Actions
      • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
        • If - Conditions
          • intvar Equal to 0
        • Then - Actions
          • Set intvar = 1
          • -------- do some actions here --------
        • Else - Actions
          • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
            • If - Conditions
              • intvar Equal to 1
            • Then - Actions
              • Set intvar = 2
              • -------- do some other actions here --------
            • Else - Actions
              • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
                • If - Conditions
                  • intvar Equal to 2
                • Then - Actions
                  • -------- I dont know if anything is supposed to be done at the last one... --------
                  • -------- for example jumping back to intvar 0 or something like that.... --------
                  • -------- eather ways do some other actions here again --------
                • Else - Actions

I'll have to try that when i get a chance.. I wonder if it will still require waits

ps: the last trigger does reset the integer variable, so theoretically it will be repeatable

  • No one is chatting at the moment.
  • Varine Varine:
    How can you tell the difference between real traffic and indexing or AI generation bots?
  • The Helper The Helper:
    The bots will show up as users online in the forum software but they do not show up in my stats tracking. I am sure there are bots in the stats but the way alot of the bots treat the site do not show up on the stats
  • Varine Varine:
    I want to build a filtration system for my 3d printer, and that shit is so much more complicated than I thought it would be
  • Varine Varine:
    Apparently ABS emits styrene particulates which can be like .2 micrometers, which idk if the VOC detectors I have can even catch that
  • Varine Varine:
    Anyway I need to get some of those sensors and two air pressure sensors installed before an after the filters, which I need to figure out how to calculate the necessary pressure for and I have yet to find anything that tells me how to actually do that, just the cfm ratings
  • Varine Varine:
    And then I have to set up an arduino board to read those sensors, which I also don't know very much about but I have a whole bunch of crash course things for that
  • Varine Varine:
    These sensors are also a lot more than I thought they would be. Like 5 to 10 each, idk why but I assumed they would be like 2 dollars
  • Varine Varine:
    Another issue I'm learning is that a lot of the air quality sensors don't work at very high ambient temperatures. I'm planning on heating this enclosure to like 60C or so, and that's the upper limit of their functionality
  • Varine Varine:
    Although I don't know if I need to actually actively heat it or just let the plate and hotend bring the ambient temp to whatever it will, but even then I need to figure out an exfiltration for hot air. I think I kind of know what to do but it's still fucking confusing
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Maybe you could find some of that information from AC tech - like how they detect freon and such
  • Varine Varine:
    That's mostly what I've been looking at
  • Varine Varine:
    I don't think I'm dealing with quite the same pressures though, at the very least its a significantly smaller system. For the time being I'm just going to put together a quick scrubby box though and hope it works good enough to not make my house toxic
  • Varine Varine:
    I mean I don't use this enough to pose any significant danger I don't think, but I would still rather not be throwing styrene all over the air

    I bitch about Xenforo sometimes but it really is full featured you just have to really know what you are doing to get the most out of it.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is just not easy to fix styles and customize but it definitely can be done
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do know this - xenforo dropped the ball by not keeping the vbulletin reputation comments as a feature. The loss of the Reputation comments data when we switched to Xenforo really was the death knell for the site when it came to all the users that left. I know I missed it so much and I got way less interested in the site when that feature was gone and I run the site.
