Wired Basics

TRIGGERS

Introduction

In this article, you will learn what Wired Triggers do and how to use them in your room. You will also learn a few useful examples.


What is a Wired Trigger?

A trigger listens for a specific event in the room, in order to activate an effect.

In other words, a trigger will only activate a wired effect if a specific event has occured.

Triggers can be as basic as an avatar walking on a furni, or an avatar saying a specific keyword. There are also more complex trigger events which will be covered in the list of triggers.

Examples

User Walks On Furni + Teleport To Furni = When a user stands on a selected furni, they get teleported to another furni

Furni is Used + Toggle Furni State = When a user flicks the switch, the gate will open or close

User Performs Action + Show Message = When a user starts idling, the wired will send them a message, waking them up without the need for the user’s intervention
