<![CDATA[​[ANSWERED] How to make an Start / Stop Movie player with block]]>Hi. I'm stuck and I know this will be a piece of cake for some kind members here. 

I have 2 two movie players. Each assigned on 2 projectors on Stage 1 and Stage 2 for 2 diplays

A keystroke pushed starts player A. On release, stop player A. Goes to black.

Another keystrokes starts player B. On release, stops player B. Goes to black.

How to tell player A not to play until keystroke to play B is released and tell player B not to play until keystroke to play A is released.

In short only one can play while it's keystroke pressed and is not released.


Thanks

Thank you very much. Comments are really helpful. Very kind of you to take time for this.

Limit scale value to gates and value change actor after triggers were the things i missed when trying to do it.

Damn. It's so simple when you see it. I should not have dropped school that soon :)

Best !

Hi there Boris, 

I would personally use an gate for this.

I made an example file for you that you can dig apart. It also includes a lot of comments, if you have any questions about it please let us know.

I'm sure there are many ways to achieve this, but I would start with Toggles and Gates. If system A is running then it closes the Gate on system B.
