Get out from CloseUp camera with an Action

Alatriste

Hi,
I'm looking to exit a close-up camera view using an ActionList, but I'm not entirely sure how to achieve it.
Essentially, I want the same functionality as when the player presses the Exit button that I already have displayed.

Thanks!

I'm not fully clear on your situation.

What logic is your Exit button currently running, and how would the ActionList be triggered?

Hi Chris,

Following your First Person tutorial, in the closeUp camera part, Imagine that you want to trigger the exit after interacting with one of the jar's hotspots, instead of having to press the Exit button to return to the regular camera. How would you do it?

Actually, what I'm trying to do is the following:
1. The player picks up a phone.
2. I trigger a closeUp camera.
3. There are 2 conversation options: Dial a number or hang up.
4. If the player selects "Hang Up" I want to run an actionList to switch back the camera to the first person.

Right now I have the following, but the actionList "PhoneCallConversation_HangUp" is not running.

A Conversation would be easier than an Exit button, because it means you can keep all the logic within the scene and avoid need to asset <-> scene references.

Are you certain the dialogue option is not running? Try adding an ActionList: Comment Action to confirm nothing gets put into the Console.

Rather than assigning a DialogOption in the Conversation, try checking Override options? in the Dialogue: Start Conversation Action so that you can have all the logic in one place. Share screenshots of the Actions being run and I'll see if I can spot any issue.

Thanks Chris! You were right. I was overcomplicating things.
I put everything in a single actionList and now it's working as expected.

Thanks!
