Is there a way to either make an operator invisible, or change their position to a defined point offscreen based on a global table value? The trigger for the change would be on reset, after I've set my table values.
I'm simulating my factory and have a table where I can set how many operators are working at their respective build tables. When I have inactive operators this way, I would like to hide them, or move them to an offscreen point.
When you change table values, then you use this event to change the visibility or location. A table has NOT any events to be fired on value change.
change viisibility
set location
property location of Object class
You could also consider adding them to shifts in a timetable and have them walk to /start in an offshift area that you define.
In addition you could connect them to the relevant dispatchers based on your table to further control the work assignments they recieve.how would I use these switch commands for current object (operator)?
I would, presumably, have a code snippet on reset. The code I tried (but didn't work) is:
if (Table("OperatorScenario")[1][1] < 4) switch_hidden(current,0);
if (Table("OperatorScenario")[1][1] == 4) switch_hidden(current,1);
but I was returned the following errors:
Flexscript Error MODEL:/Builder3_86>variables/resettrigger Line 5 Invalid type for parameter 1 in call to command switch_hidden. Expecting treenode. Type is (invalid)
Flexscript Error MODEL:/Builder3_86>variables/resettrigger
Could not finish parsing because of previous errors.
I can't replicate your issue. But I can't either switch the object to hidden. I tried it with another switch: switch_hideshape. This works.
