Mncdk1 Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 Feature request for Ligo. Please add activate() on manual buttons. There's lots of uses for firing a signal when you sit down in a chair, but where a switch isn't necessarily the way to do it. Like when counters are involved. Unless I'm just doing it wrong. Anyway, it would be nice to be able to push the button with lua. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tordan Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 Isn't a button with an active state and a de-active state just a switch? as a workaround: attach both a button and a switch to an OR gate. use the button for manual push. attach the switch to your control unit and create a little onActivate() function that deactivates the switch again.

They already have it; I'm quite sure that I've used it pre-Mercury too. https://github.com/dual-universe/lua-examples/blob/main/api-mockup/manualswitch.lua#L31 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll try playing with that, and see if I can get the behavior 3 hours ago, Yoarii said: They already have it; I'm quite sure that I've used it pre-Mercury too. https://github.com/dual-universe/lua-examples/blob/main/api-mockup/manualswitch.lua#L31 You're linking to a switch. Here's a button https://github.com/dual-universe/lua-examples/blob/main/api-mockup/manualbutton.lua Oh, before submitting this reply, Ellias suggested on Discord that I just use the counter directly. I did not know about/consider that option, but I found this Quote --- Moves the next counter index function self.nextIndex() end in counter.lua here https://github.com/dual-universe/lua-examples/blob/main/api-mockup/counter.lua I guess this request is moot 🤦♂️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
