sr_idle

sr_idle is a restrictor scheme that waits and checks switch conditions. It does not run its own effect, movement, UI, or actor interaction behavior.

Use it as a neutral trigger state when a space restrictor should wait for info portions, timers, actor entry, actor exit, or other common switch conditions.

Parameters

sr_idle has no scheme-specific parameters. It reads only common switch fields from the section.

on_info, on_info1, …

Type: condlist.

Switch when the condlist selects another section.

on_timer, on_timer1, …

Type: milliseconds | condlist.

Switch after the section has been active for the duration.

on_game_timer, on_game_timer1, …

Type: seconds | condlist.

Switch after the section has been active for the game-time duration.

on_actor_inside

Type: condlist.

Switch while the actor is inside the current restrictor.

on_actor_outside

Type: condlist.

Switch while the actor is outside the current restrictor.

on_actor_in_zone

Type: zone | condlist.

Switch while the actor is inside another named zone.

on_actor_not_in_zone

Type: zone | condlist.

Switch while the actor is outside another named zone.

on_npc_in_zone

Type: story_id | zone | condlist.

Switch while the named NPC is inside the named zone.

on_npc_not_in_zone

Type: story_id | zone | condlist.

Switch while the named NPC is outside the named zone.

Usage

Use sr_idle when the restrictor is only a condition gate:

• wait until the actor enters a volume;
• wait until an info portion is set;
• call an effect through a condlist and then switch;
• hold a trigger in a disabled state until another section enables it.

Because sr_idle checks conditions every update, avoid condlists that repeatedly return the same active section while running effects. Effects in a matching condlist can run every update if the switch itself does not move to another section.

Example

[logic]
active = sr_idle@wait

[sr_idle@wait]
on_actor_inside = sr_idle@inside %=play_sound(alarm_start)%

[sr_idle@inside]
on_actor_outside = sr_idle@wait
on_timer = 10000 | sr_idle@done %+actor_stayed_in_zone%

[sr_idle@done]

The first section waits for the actor to enter the restrictor. The second section waits for either actor exit or a 10-second timer.
