Secret bookshelf

Development Programming & Scripting
1

So i wondering how to do this…im really new with UE4 most of the time i keep making stuff to after spending hours deleting all bc is shait haha.

The thing is im making a horror game and i want to make something like a bookshelf with movement to lead a path to other area, so…how do i make that?

ok that solved one issue but if i want to make something harder like
you need a book for this bookshelf
put the book
the bookshelf is moving O_O

Taraaaan! something like that maybe?

If you look at the youtube channel for UE4 there is a Introduction to Level design tutorial that includes an automatic sliding door, which is opened by a trigger volume. (Tutorial 8, 9 and 10 in this collection)

You should be able to copy that example but trigger it with your own switch instead?

That is trickier ;o)

You would need to have an actor or a volume as part of your bookshelf that you could detect whether the player is looking at it using a trace, and then highlight it so the user knew they could interact with it … then when they press the interact key boom … bookshelf starts moving :-o

Of course this requires an actor, correct usage of the line trace feature and then highlighting an actor and then an animation for the interaction … but im sure you can handle it :oD

Heres a good start on line tracing
