Assigning an animation to a button. Created 17 years ago2006-06-11 11:27:43 UTC by Exos

Okay this is my first real attempt at creating a single player map, and I want to assign an animation to a button. Here is the scenario.

There is a door with a monitor right next to it. The monitor has a "func_button" on it. The door is a prop_dynamic combine door. I want the button, when pressed, to set the animation "Open" for the door. In the outputs tab, there is a "set animation" selection, but I don't know how to set a specific animation.

• make an entity "prop_dynamic", give it the worlmodel "combinebutton"
• give it the name "combinebutton"
• make a brushbased entity "func_button"
• input (func_button) onpressed/combinebutton/setanimation/press

Is that helpful at all?

I want the door to open. I know how to set up the prop_dynamic and all that. But the Outputs of the button I don't understand. In the "via this output" there is a "Setanimation" selection. Do I have to type in "Open?"

Nevermind I got it to work.

Since everyone learns how to solve problems from the forums, why don't you post what you did to make it work?

Well, In the "via this output" I put "Set animation" and in the "Parameter Overide" I put "Open". So basically, type in the name of the animation in the "Parameter Overide"
