Turning Off a trigger

Hey Guys

i have a pretty simple problem, which is that I am trying to disable a trigger. It works like this - a trigger makes two guards have a conversation, until the player presses Escape.

Then the trigger is turned off and any remaining functions in the trigger arent fired. Is this possible? Because I've tried everything, and the trigger keeps firing its remaining actions after the escape key press.

Thanks!

> the trigger keeps firing its remaining actions after the escape key press.

That's normal.
And, no, "Trigger - Turn off" doesn't help, as that only disables the events, not the currently running actions.

Well, the usual plan is to set some boolean to true on the event "skips a cinematic",
and add a bunch of
If Boolean equal to true then
- Skip remaining actions
to your cinematics trigger.

Also that only checks if it's true once, if it's false at that point it'll fire all actions even if it's set to true later on.

Thanks for helping Guys!!!

Well, your right, the trigger only checks if the boolean = true or false once, at map init. I need it to check from the time the map initializes until the player press the escape key. Anybody know how that would be triggered?

For every 0.01 seconds, if skipcine = true, do skip remaining actions.

Do the triggers yourself. I'm too sleepy.

Event:
- Player 1 skips a cinematic
Conditions:
Actions:
- Set Boolean = true

Event:
- Time - Elapsed time is 0.0 seconds
Conditions:
Cinematic part 1
wait
If Boolean equal to true then skip remaining actions (nothing in "else", just this)
Cinematic part 2
wait
If Boolean equal to true then skip remaining actions (same here)
Cinematic part 3
...

You've got to be kidding me...

That takes ages, plus the time it takes to copy/paste...for a cinematic that have about 200+ actions...

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
