Tidying up Kismet networks using Remote Events
In this recipe we'll introduce Remote Events. These let you send a connection from one part of a Kismet network to another part far away, even in another Sub-Sequence. The purpose is to reduce the number of wires crossing over nodes, to make the network easier to read. In this example we'll do a very quick simplification of some nodes that are otherwise difficult to tidy up.
How to do it...
Open Packt_04_RemoteEvent_Start.UDK. Look at the section Teleport Emitter Where It's Needed. This would be a prime candidate for sending to a Sub-Sequence if it didn't have three separate links coming into it from events below.
Go to the Trigger_0 Touch event and hold R and click. You'll be prompted for an Event Name. Type
FirstTeleport
. This automatically creates a Remote Event event with the Event Name FirstTeleport but also an Activate Remote Event action with the Event Name FirstTeleport as well.Select the newly added action and press Ctrl + X to cut it...
