Activation System

Summary

The Activation System within the Unity Games Toolkit (UGTK) manages the activation states of GameObjects. It provides control over GameObject activation, including activate, deactivate, and toggle (change) states. This system is essential for dynamic gameplay scenarios where the state of GameObjects needs to be controlled programmatically.

Modules Dependencies

The Activation System module does not have external dependencies within the UGTK. It can be used independently.

Setup

To set up the Activation System, follow these steps:

2D Change Activation

Add 2DChangeActivation Prefab in your scenere:

Define the list of target GameObjects and specify the desired activation type for each.:

3D Change Activation

Add 3DChangeActivation Prefab in your scenere:

Define the list of target GameObjects and specify the desired activation type for each.:

How To Use

To use the Activation System, utilize the following methods, called by code:

Apply Modification:

Call the ApplyModification method to apply the activation changes to the target GameObjects based on their specified activation type. You can call this funct by code or by buttons or triggering events

    mn_GameObjectActivation.ApplyModification();

Testing Scene

To try this system, you can utilize the following examples in the scene ActivationScene:

Technical Info

The following are the main scripts and workflow of the Activation System. Refer to the UML section for the detailed structure.

Scripts:

EActivationType: Enumeration defining the types of activation changes (Activate, Deactivate, Change).
Mn_GameObjectActivation: Manages the activation state of GameObjects, handling the logic for activating, deactivating, and toggling activation states.
S_ChangeActivationObjects: Structure holding a list of GameObjects and the type of activation change to apply.
