Fizzlers On/Off Question
Hi All,
I am currently trying to make a room where there are fizzlers that turn on for a few seconds and then turn off for a few secs and so on. I suspect it needs to be done with a logic_branch or logic_timer but I'm not sure how to set it up. I also dont know if I should use the Fizzler Instance or make it up myself with the props and a fizzler brush...
Lets imagine four fizzlers in a row. Fizzler on = 1 Fizzler off = 2
The first state of the four should be: 1 2 1 2 and the second state should be: 2 1 2 1
and they should start this from the start of the map, so logic_auto - onmapspawn I assume.
Any help would be appreciated.

so if you want them to oscillate, say, every 2 seconds, then just set up the four fizzers. Make two of the four start enabled and 2 of the four start disabled. Then, make a logic timer. In the flags, click the only one, oscillate. Set it's time to 2 in the keyvalues and then have it toggle the states of all four fizzlers every time the timer relays.

Excellent - thanks! I'll give this a go when I get home.

You could use a logic Timer that 'tests' a logic branch with a value of 1 or 0.
If there is a 'toggle' input for the fizzler, then even better.
Yeah I'm hoping there's a toggle.

It sure does.

You could also use "onTimerHIgh" and "onTimerLow".
Set onTimerHigh: FizzlerA +C turnOff; FizzlerB + D turnOn
onTImerLow: FizzlerA +C turnON: FizzlerB + D turnOff
And set "StartActive" to yes.

That is EXACTLY what I meant. I even had a setup like that in my map. lol

I've tried playing around with the above and it doesn't seem to work for me -I've attached the VMF if someone has the time to check it out and see what I'm doing wrong?
Cheers all.
