is there a way to make animation gizmos work with trigger handles?

[edgy void]

If yes that would be nice

[clever wren]

Technically yes, you just need to make a signal converter

On use of trigger handle, set the position of a cube into a CV1 trigger volume

And have the trigger volume activate the animation

[edgy void]

Oh

Thank you

[stray trout]

Another way is to make a piston hit a button when you use the trigger handle and make the button do what you need it to

[edgy void]

Smart as hell

[rocky veldt]

extra ink

[edgy void]

Still smart as hell

[clever wren]

Hell no, you do NOT want to use the piston method, main reason being it wastes ink and it runs off of authority of said piston, so if you try and use it and you aren’t authority, it will be gittery and lag behind, essentially giving it the chance to break and no function as intended, I’m sick of seeing people suggest the piston method honestly

[edgy void]

Ok

[clever wren]

now I know how cryptic feels about sequence

[edgy void]

But is there a way to make it so when i swing my hands up something happens?

[rocky veldt]

what

[edgy void]

Like when i swing my arms up it launches me up

[rocky veldt]

30hz -> if [and] -> then velocity set of local player with the direction being a vector3 create of [0, 1, 0]

[edgy void]

Just send a picture

[rocky veldt]

for the and, have 6 inputs

input 1: right hand velocity -> vector3 get magnitude [greater or equal to 5]
input 2: left hand velocity -> vector3 get magnitude [greater or equal to 5]
input 3: absolute value of y value of right hand velocity is greater or equal to absolute value of x value of right hand velocity
input 4: absolute value of y value of right hand velocity is greater or equal to absolute value of z value of right hand velocity
input 5: absolute value of y value of left hand velocity is greater or equal to absolute value of x value of left hand velocity
input 6: absolute value of y value of left hand velocity is greater or equal to absolute value of z value of left hand velocity

[edgy void]

I dont underatand😕

[rocky veldt]

did you read and try it?

[edgy void]

Yea i have no idea

[rocky veldt]

dont expect a picture every time

[rocky veldt]

^^

[edgy void]

Ik i wont

[bright wadi]

[rugged wind]

Dude, what is this

[rocky veldt]

nervewracking message

detects if both hands are going up at a certain speed (._. )
first two bools in the And are to detect if both hands are going up, other 4 bools are detecting if they are going up more than they are going to the side

[austere osprey]

Using absolute value will make it execute when they move their arms down too though

Wait nvm

[rocky veldt]

yeah

top two

[austere osprey]

Thought you had it wired differently

[rocky veldt]

is there a better way 😰

[austere osprey]

I would just check if Y value is greater than like 3 or sum😭

[rugged wind]

Detect if the magnitude of the velocity of the hand is greater than A, and that the dot product between the normalized hand velocity and (0,1,0) is greater than B

[austere osprey]

Smart

[rocky veldt]

interesting, i haven't worked with vectors as much as i should be lmao

[rugged wind]

Also, And bad, use Equals (New) where the first input is True

[rocky veldt]

gotcha

[rocky veldt]

ohh i see; smart
i found that dot product shows how similiar two lines are in terms of direction, from -1 being opposite and 1 being the same
seeing the dot product compared to [0, 1, 0] would be saying how close your hands are to going straight up

thank you for enlightening me 🙂

[rugged wind]

If both are normalized, yes

[rocky veldt]

both as in both hands correct?

[rugged wind]

its basically “Similarity * product of input vector magnitudes”

So (0,3,0) dot (0,5,0) outputs 15, not 1

[rocky veldt]

thanks

[rugged wind]

If both input vectors are normalized, it outputs similarity between [-1, 1]

[rocky veldt]

yeah

wait but isnt [0, 1, 0] already normalized?

[rugged wind]

Yes

thats why i didnt tell you to normalize it

[rocky veldt]

ahh read it wrong

[wild steeple]

im am still confused can you show a image of it

[clever wren]

No
