Valid values

  • A trigger type the scenario declares. Each tag holding that type has its own trigger of the type, and the action enables all of them.
Caveats
  • Enabling restarts the trigger's countdown. An elapsed time or random delay event on the trigger counts its full delay again from the moment this action runs, and a random delay is drawn again.
  • The countdown restarts even if the trigger was already enabled, so running the action again restarts a countdown already in progress.
  • Nothing else about the trigger is reset. Events already [marked](/systems/trigger-springing/#remembering-a-satisfied-event) stay marked. A trigger with no elapsed time or random delay event is only switched on.
  • A trigger waiting to be deleted, for example by Destroy Trigger, is enabled but never fires.
  • The action does nothing to a trigger switched off for the difficulty being played. It cannot bring such a trigger back.
