Enable / Disable Marker Event

[CompGuyJMB]

Hey Everyone,

 

I have an Enable / Disable marker, which is toggled between Enabled and Disabled by a push button (RedR_ButtonBox). I want to set up a Register for a Remove Event for when that marker is enabled / disabled.

 

What Event fires on that marker when it is Enabled or Disabled?

 

I'm looking for the equivalent of:

Event ObjectReference.OnEnable()
     ; Do stuff when the marker becomes enabled
EndEvent


Event ObjectReference.OnDisable()
     ; Do different stuff when marker becomes disabled
EndEvent

I don't see that event in the Creation Kit documentation. It might be a simple stuipd answer, but I new to Papyrus.

 

Thanks for the input!

You need to send custom event from your script when you enable or disable object. Then register handler quest for that event and receive.

This article will help.

If event timing precision is not a factor, you could also remotely register for the button's OnActivate. Otherwise, custom events are the way to go.

RegisterForRemoteEvent(RedR_ButtonBox, "OnActivate")

Event ObjectReference.OnActivate(ObjectReference akSender, ObjectReference akActionRef)
    If akActionRef == Game.GetPlayer()      ; Player pushed the red button (red button is akSender)
        
        If MY_MARKER_PROPERTY.IsEnabled()   ; Replace allcaps with marker name from code or CK
            ; The marker was enabled
        Else
            ; The marker was disabled
        EndIf
        
    EndIf
EndEvent
