What are activators?

An activator is a World Object can be used (or activated) by an actor or another activator. As a rule, they have scripts on them with Begin OnActivate blocks that trap the attempt to use them and perform some action. An activator without a script will still show the activation icon to the player, even if it is inert.

A typical example of an activator is the push buttons seen in many of the Ayleid ruins.

• act as global data stores (if they are persistant references)
• use the Reference Variable Fonction GetSelf

• train other players
• talk to other players
• sell and trade to other players
• other people(users)get to log on in jail for new people
