Haptic Feedback Node

This action node activates a low or high vibration level on a mobile device.

This node contains two inputs that control different levels of the device vibration:

• Low—activates a quick and light vibration.
• High—activates a longer and more intense vibration.

If needed, type a custom name for this node in the name attribute.

Signal Threshold Node

This action node activates any connected node inputs after this node activates the amount of times specified by the Threshold amount.

After you add this node to an asset:

1. Connect the In input to the desired node’s output.
2. Connect the Out output to the desired node’s input.
3. Select this node, and In the options panel, in the Threshold field, enter the amount of times you want the player to activate this node before activating the nodes connected to the Out output.

The following example requires players to press a keyboard button three times to change the asset’s color. Since the Threshold amount is set to 2, the player needs to press the keyboard button twice to fulfill that amount, and once more to activate the Set Color node.

Node Attributes

If needed, you can also customize this node. For details, see Customizing Nodes.

Signal Invert Node

This action node inverts the signal received from a connected node. For example, if the In input receives a true signal, the Out output sends a false signal.

Each node output sends a true or false signal that node inputs receive. A true signal allows an input to enable a nodes action while a false signal disables that action. When this node’s In input receives a signal from a different node’s output, the Out output sends the opposite signal to any connected node inputs.

To change the name of the node, select it in the node map and in the Options panel, in the Name field, type a custom name, if needed.

The image below is an example a keyboard button that when pressed, stops the asset’s current movement.

If needed, you can also customize this node. For details, see Customizing Nodes.

Signal Node

This action node sends a true or false signal through a connector to activate or deactivate any connected inputs on other nodes.

The Out output sends the signal when the asset is created or spawned in the game, much like the Object Start node.

To change the type of signal to send: in the options panel, select the Signal attribute field and choose one the following options:

• True—activates connected inputs.
• False—deactivate connected inputs.

The following is an example of a Signal node connected to a Move node. A True signal will make the asset move, while a False signal will not.

If needed, you can also customize this node. For details, see Customizing Nodes.

Velocity Drag Node

This movement node applies physics resistance to a dynamic asset’s movement and rotation.

Node Attributes

8 Sided Animation Node

This content node changes an asset’s 2D animation based on the asset’s direction of movement or the direction it faces in a 3D World.

To apply animations to an asset that change based on the asset’s movement, do the following:

1. Select the Mode attribute to determine when you want the animation to change.
   • Position Change—the asset’s movement in the X and Z direction.
   • Rotation Change—the asset’s rotation along the Y axis.
2. Drag a PNG image sequence to each animation fields. The animation will change when the asset moves or rotates in the following directions:
   

   Attribute	Direction	Axis Direction
   Up	Forward	Negative Z
   Up Right	Forward Right	Negative Z and Negative X
   Down	Backward	Positive Z
   Down Left	Backward Left	Positive Z and Positive X
   Left	Left	Positive X
   Up Left	Forward Left	Negative Z and Positive X

Circular Move Node

This movement node makes an asset orbit around a specific point in a scene.

Node Attributes

If needed, you can also customize this node. For details, see Customizing Nodes.

Gravitate Node

This movement node allows a dynamic asset to move and gravitate toward other assets in a scene.

To make an asset gravitate toward another asset, do the following:

1. In a World workspace and in the Asset panel, double-click the asset to open it’s Node Map.
2. On the Node Map grid, select the Start node and in the options panel on the right, click the Physics field and select Dynamic.
3. In the Node panel on the left and in the Search fiexld, type Gravitate and drag the name or icon to the Node Map grid.
4. On the Gravitate node, connect the Enabled input to the Created output of the Start node.
5. Select the Gravitate node and in the Options panel on the right, adjust the Strength attribute as needed.
6. Preview your game. The asset will now gravitate toward another asset in the scene.

Node Attributes

If needed, you can also customize this node. For details, see Customizing Nodes.

Stick to Edge Node

This advanced node maintains an asset’s position and size in relation to the screen size.

This node automatically enabled when the asset is created or spawned in the game.

After you add this node to a UI asset, you need to specify the following:

• Select the Side attribute to specify which side of the screen you want to place the asset, then specify the Horizontal and Vertical Distance depending on which side you chose.
• The following lists each Side option as well as the Distance attributes you need to specify.
  • Bottom—Vertical
  • BottomLeft—Horizontal & Vertical
  • BottomRight—Horizontal & Vertical
  • Left—Horizontal
  • Right—Horizontal
  • Top—Vertical
  • TopLeft—Horizontal Dist. & Vertical
  • TopRight—Horizontal & Vertical

Node Attributes

If needed, you can also customize this node. For details, see Customizing Nodes.
