- Опубліковано 12 чер 2024
- Hey guys, in today's video, I'm going to be showing you how to push a button and have it play a timeline animation to visualise and show this. It will play a sound effect and you can put any code you like after this, for example opening a door.

I find it crazy/awesome that Matt is always creating videos for things we really need to learn! I needed something just like this for a button to turn on a machine. Thanks!
No problem man, glad I can help :)
so simple ,clean explanation. I like the way of explanation ,not unnecessary speak just the point...thank you for the tutorial
Maaaaaaaan ive been doing hella long ass tutorials and learning nothing. Your videos are super fast and right to the point. LOVE THEM. Youre getting me out of tutorial phase alot faster now. Please dont stop! THANK YOU
That's amazing to hear mate, so happy that I can help you! I wish you all the best of luck with your future mate!! :)
@@MattAspland thanks man! i wish you luck as well!
a tip: you can watch movies on flixzone. I've been using it for watching loads of movies recently.
@Sullivan Korbin definitely, been watching on Flixzone} for since december myself =)
Matt, you are so awesome, thank you so much for putting these tutorials together, I hope I can one day be as fluent as you in Unreal!
Thank you so much! You help me a lot with my thesis project! ♥
Legend! Many thanks!
Very clear and helpful. Thank you !!
Thank you! No problem, happy to help! :)
Very helpful :)
Thanks !
great tutorial
Thanks!
Thanks
Almost 2k man!
Yeah thank you man, tomorrow I'll hit 100,000 views too. Mind blowing
nicely done 😊
Thank you! :)
Is it better to set the values specifically or is it ok to just use the bound extent of the collision for setting the position it moves the button too?
I keep coming to these tutorials, perfect pace for all you explain!
Hi Matt, great tutorial as always. Would it be possible to show me how to let the mannequin press the button with its hand by using an animation sequence.
Thank you
Hi just wondering how do you have the character do an animation of his hand touching the button?
its a good tutorial, but id slow down and then since your mouse isnt the biggest, then instead of saying "over here" or "over there" say "top left" "lover right" would be very helpful. thank you for the video
I hope you might be able to help me a little. I have used this Tutorial to make my button in my game. Only I'm having trouble with the code I want to put after it. Simply set I want that when the button is pressed player placed objects get simulate physics turned on. And when everything falls etc. I want to have a button that resets the player placed objects back in position before simulate Physics is turned on. Have any ideas or tips? Would love to get in contact with you and have your help
Yoo let's go 😎
Thank you :)
Awesome
Thanks mate!
Hey, good work.. Can you help with this?.
How do I make left and right button in a mobile game.. I already got it right to the widget, I don't really understand how to make the button event which will make player go left and right..
How would opening a door with multi/combo of buttons work?
Hey dude,
I have this button incorporated into a level already. it all works fine, however...i tried to use this to operate another function but it always accesses the first button?
to try and fix this i created another Button completely separate from the first one but i have the exact same issue :(
my assignments due tomorrow and ive been messing around with this for the last few days.
many thanks for all your continued content :)
What if I want to make a rotation with those blueprints? What should I do?
Cool👍
Thank you :)
how do i do when button clicked play a cinamatric?
I can have a animation activate for this too right? My character raises its hand and pushes the button ? I’m trying to mix some things . Haha
I don't get it! It works and all, when I enter a box and press E, the level changes like I want. I copy and paste the BP Actor to load a different level and it works, but now the first box doesn't work anymore. wtf.
Amazing tutorial thank you! However I'm experiencing a weird issue when I place two instances of these buttons in my scene. Only one button ends up working for some reason. Any ideas what could be the cause?
You need to disable "Consume Input" on the InputAction Interact, you have to select that event, in the top right menu you will find the tick box and then un-tick it. (^w^)
@@freakycami73 You life saver omg
@@elmrysmordred5834 I'm so happy to help ♥
This is a pretty good tutorial! The only thing that I do not like is that the Input of an action that the player does (pressing the button) is received in the script of the button. It should rather be done in the player controller which then calls the button in range.
Why would you bog down the player controller with it? This is something the player is interacting with, not something the player needs to know about.
But I'm confused, can you edit the blueprint of an instance of an item? Like say I have two buttons in my scene, can I tell them to activate something different? Or do I have to make a different blueprint for each button, and end-up with like 30 button-blueprints in my content browser, even though they're all basically the same thing?
You can copy paste your blueprint until it reaches what the buttons is set to activate and change everything super easily, it's the beauty of blueprints
Can you do this for ue5 please
followed 3 times, button not move for me :( ..... on both my timelines (in and out) it says pause in a pinkish box above?
***update*** turned of the computer, went to bed, the following morning the "pause" node had vanished? ...but the button still doesn't move .... lol (it does play sound though)
***update*** i had get "box" and not get "button" - now all working :p thx, mr matt
Hey, Matt. This worked perfectly for me until I added another actor blueprint elsewhere in the map doing something else using the same method. Now the new thing I made works and the first thing I made no longer responds. Any idea?
Hey, you may need to disable "Consume Input" on your input key, so the E keyboard event, or interact action mapping. If you select the event, and in the top right you should see that tick box, just un-tick it. Hope this helps :)
@@MattAspland dude you're the best. Thank you so much!
No problem, happy to help! :)
@@MattAspland I had the same problem and this fixes it. Thanks for the great tutorial!
@@MattAspland MY GOSH!!!!! Thank you so much!!
Exelente video hermano,
Ya que miro tu vídeo
Cómo podemos crear una animación que al precio el el botón nuestro personaje haga la animación con la mano
Precionando el botón?
¡Gracias! Además, para reproducir una animación para presionar el botón, puede crear un montaje de animación, y luego, cuando disparamos la línea de tiempo, también obtenemos un nodo "Reproducir montaje de animación". Además, asegúrese de poner "Slot_Default_Slot" en el plano de animación para que funcione.
¡Espero que esto ayude! Perdón por cualquier mal español, estoy usando Google Translate jajaja.
@@MattAspland
Thank you
I will follow your advice
Don't worry, your Spanish is fine,
But to save you the work of translating the texts, I will ask you in English
Thank you and no problem, best of luck with it. Hope it works for you! :)
Hey, i have made door opening animation and button animation as well. should i copy everything and paste it right after the "button animation" and connect them? or what do you mean by putting door opening code? pls help
Hey, so yeah you could either copy and past it all over or you could cast to your door blueprint and call the code in there to play by putting the code in a custom event in your door bp. This can sound confusing so I'll make a video on it explaining how to do it. Sorry about that, should hopefully be out soon, maybe even tomorrow.
@@MattAspland Thank you very much, that would be super good.and i have another problem as well, when i close my doors it start re-opening insteas of closing. and yes i'm sure i have connecter branch into "reverse from end". and after it does that, it never does the animation again.
@@MattAspland Oh i just fixed that reverse problem, but somehow it doesn't play the animation after it opens and closes once, any idea why is that?
Ok Matt, i just fixed the problem, i just connected the first branch in "play from the start" and i just deleted the delays. dunno why, but it worked. i would appreciate if you make a video about how to connect the button blueprint and the door code, thanks!
@@bowdy4952 Hey, sorry for the late reply. Glad you got that problem solved, and yep I can still make that video no worries
what if you want multiple buttons near eachother the way this is set up if you had buttons near eachother if you were in both trigger boxes it would trigger both
Hey, you could either decrease the size enough, or you could use linetraces instead so that you have to look at the specific button in order to interact with it. I have a video on opening a door when looking at it, you should be able to merge these two videos to use that linetrace code for your button. Hope this helps and let me know if you need any extra help :)

@@MattAspland oh line tracing thats on my to do list of things i wanna try doing and thx for the help :)
@@nighthawkgaming1962 That's great, no problem mate. Good luck with it :)
Can this be used in Unreal 5? It works fine and dandy except instead of moving back and forth, the entire button expands. I went back and forth through the video and there is no mistake.
Nevermind I figured it out, it was user error!
this is cool and all but is have a small problem i need some help with: only one of these can be placed into the world for the following reason, if i put more than one into the level, only one of them will work, the other button will not react to anything
Hi, I think the fix to this would be to select the interact button in the blueprint, and then un-tick "Consume Input". Let me know if this helps :)
@@MattAspland Thank you it worked for me
I'm not sure what happened with my button. it only lets me put one in the scene even if I have made another blueprint for a different button and it only works on certain walls. I might of missed something with collision maybe :'( great video though
Try playing with the box size, that worked for me
Can u associate it with opening a door liked your video
Thank you, and yeah you can. So when I put the comment saying put anything you like, that is where you can put this door opening code. I linked a video on screen too which should show you how to open a door. If you press the "i" in the top right of the screen you should find it :)
I'm so confused why you used two different timelines with reverse from end instead of doubling the time of the first and adding the value 1 in the middle and 0 on extremities. Is it a specific transform thing where you can't use it like vectors?
Used just one as you mentioned...works like a charm
nice but we need play animation when he press the button
You could do this by creating an animation montage with this animation, and just after we play the sound at location, just "Play Anim Montage", and put your animation in here. Make sure that in your animation blueprint, you have "Slot_Default_Slot" where you put the state machine. Hope this helps :)
Thank you Matt, but how to make this button to do something? Eg. move one wall in level.
i follow step by step and my button disappears
How do you use this code to open a door?
Hi, like I linked in the video, I have a video which covers door opening. Just do it with one door not two. Hope it helps :)

@@MattAspland Thank you!
No problem! :)
you never told us how to comment the code in unreal engine 4
Sorry I thought I did, you select it all and press "C" :)
Aww I have hoping this was going to be an IK hand thing where your characters hand finds the button.
pls slow down
Hey, good work.. Can you help with this?.
How do I make left and right button in a mobile game.. I already got it right to the widget, I don't really understand how to make the button event which will make player go left and right..
