Hello everyone. For the longest time I've experimented on how to make a toggle without using Bool's. Today I am finally able to do it. This tutorial will show you how to toggle two objects without using a bool, but by using two Toggle Component nodes.
I will later make another version of this tutorial with animations. For those that want to be able to toggle animations (for example open door animation & close door animation).
If you're an intermediate or advanced uScript user, jump to the bottom of this tutorial that displays the entire graph. For everyone else,...let's begin.
1- After creating your scene. Create two objects. For this tutorial I created a Capsule and a Sphere. Ignore the Cube.
In your inspector window hide the Mesh Renderer of the Sphere by unchecking the box.
2- In uScript create a Input Events Node (use the search bar to find it).
Create a Owner GameObject.
Connect the Owner GameObject to the Instance node.
3- Create a Input Events Filter (use the search bar to find it).
Here is what I have in my node (nothing special).
4- Create TWO Toggle Component nodes.
Drag your Sphere object into the uScript window. Then choose Place Variable: GameObject. you should see this.
Drag your Capsule object into the uScript window. Then choose Place Variable: GameObject. you should see this.
5- Connect the Sphere GameObject to “target” on the the FIRST Toggle Component node.
Click on the FIRST Toggle Component node, your screen should look like this.
This is why you unchecked the Mesh Renderer on the Sphere earlier. You're telling Unity to hide the mesh of that object when the play button is used. Then when you press “G” on the keyboard you're telling Unity to unhide that object.
6- Connect the Capsule to “Target” on the SECOND Toggle Component.
Click on the SECOND Toggle Component node and it should look like this.
7- Your screen should look like this after connecting your nodes.
8- Save your Graph as whatever you want.
9- Assign it to the Master Game object (for the sake of this tutorial).
10- Press the play button to test the scene. When you press G the Sphere should appear and the Capsule disappears. Press it again and the opposite effect will happen.
Here is the graph for you more experienced users. As usual I like to keep things simple as possible. I hope this will be helpful to someone.
