general information

• BINACJBOTrigger Volume.oni is level specific. (It can be found in AE/AEInstaller/vanilla/levelX_Final.dat)
• The XML code on this page is based on onisplit v0.9.61.0

BSL support

show trigger activity

debug_triggers = 1 shows tv event and what character enters, stays inside or leaves

Resetting the trigger volume

trigvolume_reset (string tv_name) resets the TV to its preset state. The primary use of this is to re-enable "entry", "inside" or "exit" calls once the TV has been triggered (only necessary if the respective trigger-only-once flags are set of course). Note that some or all the TV functions are disabled at level load, you'll have to enable them manually after resetting the TV.

Removing corpses

trigvolume_corpse (integer tv_id) removes all corpses inside the specified trigger volume.

file structure

The red and blue lines were added to the screenshot in a graphics program, not by debug_triggers. If you have an updated Oni Mac engine, the TVs can be made visible. Used BSL commands: debug_triggers = 1 chr_nocollision 0 1 chr_debug_characters = 1 chr_location 0 x y z

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Oni>
   <Objects>
       [...]
   </Objects>
</Oni>

[...] means at least one trigger volume. Paste all tv data into there (this includes <TRGV Id="..."> and </TRGV> tag).

Mod Tool addon

trigger volume manager

With OniTools.xsiaddon you can drag'n'drop BINACJBOTrigger Volume.oni into the viewport.

Add or remove TVs, edit position and rotation as if they were real objects. Change size by moving the polygons.

When ready, export the data as BINACJBOTrigger Volume.xml to a folder of your choice.
