Plugins + Scripts Speed-Based Trigger

[Dragontales]

Dragontales submitted a new resource:

Speed-Based Trigger - Trigger actions based on real-time speed.

Created at the request of @Rezz

Detect Atom or Node speed and drive smooth, responsive trigger actions—perfect for adding natural motion-based interactions to your VaM scenes.

• Add the plugin to your desired atom (e.g., a Person).
• Select the Target Node/Atom (like a body part or atom name) to measure speed.
• (Optional) Choose a Reference Node/Atom to calculate relative speed (useful for paired interactions)....

Dragontales updated Speed-Based Trigger with a new update entry:

Slight Tweaks to selectable Atom/Node options and a bug fix.

1 - You can now select any atom and sub-atom/node, no matter what atom you place this on. And the same for the reference atom.
2 - Bug fix for when "use Relative Speed" option was checked and unchecked. Plugin should now continue working. (Thanks @Rezz for finding it.

What exactly defines when the start and end actions are triggered in the trigger action panel? I assumed the current speed passing the min speed and max speed thresholds would do this, but this doesn't seem to be the case. I can't get either to trigger at all, except when toggling "triggerActive", and only once per toggle.

Those triggers won't work. I tried to see how to remove those tabs from the triggers but wasn't having success. If I do figure that out, I will remove them. Only the middle tab, transitional triggers will work with this plugin. At least at this time.

Thanks for the response, good to have confirmation my issue wasn't user error, haha.

For anyone else wanting this functionality, the value threshold plugin from logic bricks works nicely for this purpose, although your speed value gets translated to a value between 0 and 1 based on your minimum and maximum speed values, which can make setting the correct threshold a bit tricky.
