AGS Tutorials (3.6.1): Temporary Hotspot Action (Change to Object Cursor)

I have created a scene where the player picks up a cable and holds it until the slot interaction was made.

You may have seen scenes like this in other point&click games like "Broken Sword" or "Night of the Rabbit"

First I will show you how the room was re-edit and how the sprites were created.

Next we will take a look at the game script and check it step by step.

I am not showing you the process of scripting but I will show you the important points of the scripting.

You could use this script blocks to create your own scenes.

Let's see how it was done.

I will add the link to the game file, so you can see the script for yourself.

The game file can be downloaded here:

Enjoy!
