Trigger Groups once?

Hi,

is there any way to use groups as a kind of functions, just like "trigger once", without the need of disabling them at the last event in it?

Thanks :)

You can set a another condition as a variable.

EventUsed = false.

Object condition

EventUsed = false   ----> thise groups actions

end of group actions ----> set EventUsed = true

Make sense?

i've tried what i guess you mean, but this does add events, since i still need to set groups inactive.

could you show me an example?

Its just adding a secondary condition to the events in the group. they won't activate until both conditions are met. you can use the secondary event condition to control when actions can be set. so you have a group of events you want to be active only once? you just set an action where you want the group action to end to change the variable thus eliminating the statement of the secondary condition.

I don't see how this adds whole new events just conditions within an event and an addition action where the group of events end.

to set a variable at the end of a group is the same effort, as setting the group itself inactive.

if i dont understand your solution, could you upload an example please? <img src="smileys/smiley1.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

It's probably better to use the Function object for this!

thanks ashley. :)

i can't find i way to do this. is there any tutorial about functions?

i just found it, getting ahead ^^
