Pmcgate

Module: pmcgate.lua

Overview

The Pmcgate module is responsible for managing the activation and opening of PMC gates in the game world. It sets up a timer to open the gate after it has been activated.

Inheritance

• Inherits from: none — base/utility module
• Imports: none

Instance pattern

This is a stateless manager/utility module with no per-instance tables or fields tracked.

Functions

OnActivate(uGateGuid, args)

Called when the PMC gate instance is activated. It sets up an event to call OpenGate once the object leaves hibernation.

OpenGate(uGateGuid)

Creates a timer that triggers after 2 seconds, calling Object.OpenGate with the PMC gate’s GUID to open it.

Events

• Listens for Event.ObjectHibernation to call OpenGate when the object leaves hibernation.
• Listens for Event.TimerRelative to trigger the gate opening after a delay.

Notes for modders

• Ensure that OnActivate is called appropriately to manage the gate’s activation lifecycle.
• The gate opens 2 seconds after it is activated. This delay can be adjusted by changing the timer duration in the OpenGate function.
• No additional customization options are provided for this module; it functions as a simple timer-based gate opener.
