TriggerActivation() question

lansounet

If I disable a trigger through a script, will it be saved forever until reactivated by another script action?

Will disabling a travel trigger prevent creatures with RunAwayFrom() actions to run through it? That could be a major quest breaker if the creature flees through it but you can't pursue them.

Side question about trapped proximity triggers (ground traps) : in the script used by that trigger, can you use conditions like timers and globals? Like if it's a resettable and undetectable ground trap, can I use some !GlobalTimerNotExpired() to prevent the trap triggering everytime Entered()/IsOverMe() is true?

If you disable a trigger, it will be a single bit change, so it will remain in the area (saved and ready for activation).
I don't know if NPC's could still use it, if they could, it is a bug.
Yes, you can use globaltimernotexpired in the trap's trigger block.

Thanks! Guess I'll have to check about NPC running through deactivated travel triggers

The game saves only the value of the variables (global & area) for the scripts, nothing more.

Unless there is some changes in BGEE, only the commoners and the storekeepers use RunAwayFrom().
