Achieving an objective by moving an object from one area to another
Achieving an objective by moving an object from one area to another
Hello, I just bought the dialogue system a few days ago and have been following the tutorials since I just started doing the gamedev thing a few weeks ago so I am fairly new to most of this stuff. I am currently recreating the "Quests" tutorial video "finding 3 crates" but in 3d, and it works, but I would like it to be a bit different. Instead of the objective being completed by just pressing E on the 3 crates, I would like it so that I would have to manually move the crates from point A to point B locaion, and that the Objective counter only counts up once you place the boxes down at point B.
Please help me I have been stuck at this phase for days now hehe, sorry if it sounds stupid, I have zero gamedev experience. thanks!

Hi,
Thanks for using the Dialogue System!
I added an example scene and a note in: How To: Use Usable Events.
If you're destroying or deactivating the object that you're "picking up," you'll need to play the sound on a different object.

Re: Achieving an objective by moving an object from one area to another
Thanks for the sound tips, its actually working now, any tips that could help with the first question? I browsed through all your tutorials and cant seem to single this out. About how to complete an objective by moving an object from point A to point B? sorry for the hassle sir.

Hi,

How you move boxes will depend on the rest of your Unity project. For example, is it a first/third person game with a player character like Fortnite? Is it an avatar-less game like StarCraft or Civilization? Is it something else? Actually moving the boxes is almost certainly outside the scope of the Dialogue System, and you'll have to use something else to handle that part.
But to update the quest, you can probably use a Dialogue System Trigger. For example, add a trigger collider to location B. Set the Dialogue System Trigger's Trigger dropdown to OnTriggerEnter, set the Conditions > Required Layer or Tag to the box's layer or tag, and configure the Actions section to increment your quest in one way or another. You'll also want to lock the boxes in place in location B or get rid of them so the player can't just pick up the same box and drop it in again. Note that this is just one way to do it. Sorry to be vague, but it's hard to provide specifics without knowing the rest of your project.
