Talk:DisablePlayerControls - InputEnableLayer

I had some trouble getting DisablePlayerControls - InputEnableLayer to work, and found out that the variable needs to be declared outside of a event/function bodies. At least that's what I had to do. For example:

Event OnInit()
    InputEnableLayer myLayer = InputEnableLayer.Create()
    myLayer.DisablePlayerControls()
EndEvent

Did not work. I had to do this:

InputEnableLayer myLayer
Event OnInit()
    myLayer = InputEnableLayer.Create()
    myLayer.DisablePlayerControls()
EndEvent

This might be how it should be done when calling any InputLayer based functions. --Lisselli (talk) 2017-04-28T02:16:03 (EDT)

It doesnt need to be declared in a function body. It just simply wont exist outside the function body if thats where you declared it.

Event OnInit()
    InputEnableLayer myLayer = InputEnableLayer.Create()
    myLayer.DisablePlayerControls()
    Utility.Wait(10)
EndEvent
This will disable the player controls for ten seconds and then the layer will cease to exist when the function returns. ~~~~
