Multiple 'Use' Keys

powney91

Hi guys

I'm making a level in UDK, and I have triggers that allow the player to open doors and draws etc, with the default 'Use' key being 'E'. My question is this - when a player opens a draw, I want them to find a letter that when selected, can be viewed by the player, but I can't repeat the 'Use' key as this just closes the draw again. Is there any way of having multiple use keys? For example, the player opens the draw with the E button, and then views the letter by clicking the left mouse button?

(I already have the kismet function that draws an image of the letter to the screen, so all I really need is a way of having multiple use keys)

Hope you can help!

try using a "toggle" node to turn off the first "E key/button press" node, then toggle a new one on. Let me know if you need screenies.

*edit*

you can also use a "switch" -- this node will do the first output, then the second, then the third ... etc. Make sure to set it to loop.

Actually if you use a trigger that has aim to interact it will be activated before another trigger. I used this to create a simple kismet setup with a drawer and takes out a box.

I also created a pretty in depth tutorial if any new users want to try something like this.

Brilliant, thank you to both of you! I managed my own workaround but both of your suggestions are much more efficient
