🎯 Bot Triggers
Triggers are events that start your bot’s logic. When a trigger occurs, the bot checks conditions (if any) and then performs actions.
👆 Player Clicks
- Triggered when a player clicks on the bot.
- Commonly used for dialogue, trading, or interaction.
- Example: “When player clicks me → Show dialogue ‘Hello!’”
⏰ Timer
- Triggered after a set amount of time passes.
- Can repeat at intervals or run once.
- Example: “Every 30 seconds → Broadcast ‘The shop is open!’”
📍 Player Nearby
- Triggered when a player comes within a defined radius of the bot.
- Radius can be set in tiles.
- Example: “When player within 2 tiles → Say ‘Welcome traveler!’”
💭 Chat Message
- Triggered when a player types a specific chat message.
- Useful for keyword responses or commands.
- Example: “When chat message = ‘help’ → Show dialogue ‘Here’s what I can do…’”
🚪 World Enter
- Triggered when a player enters the world containing the bot.
- Great for greeter bots or tutorials.
- Example: “On world enter → Show dialogue ‘Welcome to my world!’”
🕐 Time
- Triggered at a specific in‑game time.
- Can be used for scheduled events or timed interactions.
- Example: “At 12:00 game time → Broadcast ‘It’s noon!’”
Summary
Triggers are the starting point of bot logic. You can:
- React to player clicks
- Run timed events
- Detect nearby players
- Respond to chat messages
- Greet players entering your world
- Schedule actions at specific times
