Larian Studios Forums Divinity: Original Sin 2 - The Modding Dungeon Divinity - Original Sin 2 - Modding Scripting Help with Trap / Trigger script

hello to everyone, I've tried everywhere and tried in a variety of ways and after over one hundred hours of editors I still can not run a trap ... is there anyone who has already experienced and could share the information?

I would like to do something as simple as, for example, if the player walks on the pressure plate is struck by one or more arrows, or by activating a lever, the room is filled with poison gas, is there anybody so kind to help me? thanks a lot.

Place the pressure plate on the ground, open it for edit and in the side bar of the item properties, under "Scripts" open the "PUZZLE_PressurePlate" script and type a name for "EventOn" and "EventOff". For example "plateStepOn" and "plateStepOff".

Then you can make a script in the story editor with something like:



For a lever you can do something like the above with the "PUZZLE_Lever" script. Or do a script like (and place a PointTrigger where you want the poison cloud to appear)

To shoot an arrow when you step on a plate:

- Place an item with the turret script, e.g. the "PUZ_Trap_Gargoyle_C" gargoyle.

- Prefix your pressure plate name with S_ so it becomes e.g. "S_PUZ_PressurePlate_Floor_A_000".

- Open the gargoyle for edit, go to the Scripts section, edit the "PUZZLE_Turret" script, set "TurretShootEvent" to "plateStepOn" and set the "TurretProjectileSkill" to e.g. "Projectile_StunningArrow".

- Set the "TargetItem" to the pressure plate

Then whenever you step on the plate it will shoot at the arrow at it. Don't think you set it to target a player though.

I Think you can target the player, provided you make your own itemscript; the pressure plate example script should have a variable referencing what triggered it, so from there you should be able to hodge-podge something together

It works perfectly simply coordinated the plate and the gargoyle, thank you very much, I did not need to use the story editor :) With S_ in front of the name everything has been fixed.
