Triggers

Description

For descriptions of the available trigger types, see Triggers. For trigger visualization options, see View Options.

Triggers

Region Trigger

Region triggers allow you to associate a name with a particular region of a level. More importantly, they ensure that the camera cannot travel outside this trigger, and that the surroundings are blacked out.

Editing Trigger Shapes

There are 2 ways to edit trigger shapes:

• Editing shape bounds

  Box and sphere triggers have bounds that determine their area. These bounds can be edited with the Shape Edit interaction mode (5) or through the Sidebar.

• Editing control points

  Poly triggers, such as CameraLock or Stats triggers, have control points that determine their area. To edit these control points, first make sure you have View Trigger Shapes enabled. Then you can begin editing them using the poly trigger interaction modes.
