Modding Question

[Shaka_Zulu]

Hi Paradox,

I don't know if you answer questions related to mods, but I'm stuck on something and thought if anybody knew it would be you guys. I'm trying to set up a button that when pressed pins every character in a variable list. I went to the modding co-op and I've been told that it would be only possible by modifying animation states. Do you guys have any recommendations on this front?

Pretty much as Tobbzn described it, I would only add a check that the character isn't already pinned, because the function is a toggle
in an item in your variable list:

widget = {
  visible = "[Not(Scope.GetCharacter.IsPinned)]"
  state = {
    name = pinme
    on_finish = "[Scope.GetCharacter.ToggleCharacterPinned]"
  }
}

and the button:

button_standard = {
  raw_text = "Pin all"
  onclick = "[PdxGuiTriggerAllAnimations('pinme')]"
}
