Seamlessly connect Scenes
Seamlessly connect Scenes
In addition to the space spawn point, you can spawn your visitors in front of a dynamic gate. This allows scenes to be connected even more seamlessly. You can link static gates to dynamic gates, as well as connect dynamic gates with other dynamic gates.
Before Connection
The dynamic gate in the target space must be placed before. Please add a title to the Gate to find it. The target gate can also be pre-filled with other content, such as an image or a link to a website.
Connecting Gates
When you enter a Space name Destination input field 1 a list of all existing dynamic gates will appear 2.
Simply select the desired Space from the list. After selecting a Space all possible Entry Points3 will be displayed and you can simply select the preferred entry point for your Visitors, if they enter your space via this specific Gate. This option is not available if you Link to a Space which is not yours.
There exists two Icons which indicates whether the Preview isn't created yet or the Gate which is taken as entry point is hidden .
Updating Gate Screenshot
To ensure the gate’s screenshot displays correctly and no longer shows the original spawn point of the space, follow these steps:
- Enter the newly created gate that is linked to the dynamic gate in another space.
- After spawning in the new space, use the browser’s back button to return to the original space.
This process will update the preview image both on the loading screen and within the gate.
The source gate does not have to use the preview screenshot. Every field within Edit Gate UI can be filled in and have nothing to do with the target gate, except for the destination field. It is therefore also possible to use your own image as a screen, but this does not affect the loading screen.
Example: Updating Gate Preview
Aim: Link the gate in Some Title 2 to the Splat manipulation space and spawn right in front of the Target gate.
The left image shows the initial state, where you can see the space screenshot with the “Target” gate in the background.
The right image shows the final state, after I entered the gate and returned using the “Browser Back” button. The screenshot has been refreshed and now shows the view of the gate on the asset.
