# This is a Verse script for a Revenge Trap.
# It launches a player when they step on a pressure plate.

# 1. Define the Function: "LaunchPlayer"
# Think of this as defining the "Launch" loadout slot.
# It takes no inputs (empty parentheses) and returns nothing (void).
LaunchPlayer := function () {
    # Find the Prop Mover device by its name in the world.
    # If it doesn't exist, this will fail, so make sure you named it correctly!
    pad := World.FindDeviceByName ("LaunchPad")
    
    # Check if the device actually exists.
    # This is like checking if your gun has ammo before shooting.
    if (pad != nil) {
        # "Activate" the Prop Mover.
        # This tells the device to start moving its target.
        pad.Activate ()
        
        # Optional: Wait 2 seconds, then reset it.
        # This is like the cooldown on a special ability.
        World.SetTimer (2.0, func () {
            pad.Deactivate ()
        })
    }
}

# 2. Define the Event: "OnPlayerBeginOverlap"
# This is the referee listening for a rule break.
# It listens for any player stepping on the Pressure Plate.
OnPlayerBeginOverlap := function (event : Event < (Player : Player) >) {
    # When a player steps on the plate, call the LaunchPlayer function.
    # This is like blowing the whistle and making the referee act.
    LaunchPlayer ()
}

# 3. Connect the Event to the Device
# We need to tell the Pressure Plate to listen for overlaps.
# In UEFN, you usually do this in the device's properties, 
# but in Verse, we can attach the event handler to the world.
# Note: For simplicity in this beginner tutorial, 
# we assume the Pressure Plate is set to trigger "OnBeginOverlap" 
# in its own properties, and we hook into that global event.

# To make this work, we need to register the event handler.
# This is like telling the referee, "Watch this specific player."
World.OnPlayerBeginOverlap += OnPlayerBeginOverlap
