How is it possible to make matinee interruptable? eg. UT2004 Assault intro movies can be cancelled by primary fire

Two Factor Authentication is now available on BeyondUnreal Forums. To configure it, visit your Profile and look for the "Two Step Verification" option on the left side. We can send codes via email (may be slower) or you can set up any TOTP Authenticator app on your phone (Authy, Google Authenticator, etc) to deliver codes. It is highly recommended that you configure this to keep your account safe.

I am not 100% sure on this, but to cancel a movie you can just use a console command to change to the map.

Thanks!! Can you help me a little bit more?
Where can i find this? Scene manager code? Interactions code?
Instead of finding it, why dont you look through the SceneManager code?
Anywho here is an example, put this in your playercontroller class:
You could of course call it from the Fire() function. I would personally subclass the SceneManager class and place them in the level instead, and perhaps have a state in the player controller class called 'WatchingMatinee' and goto that from the scenemanager, and then when that stateends you call a function (perhaps by overwriting to the fire function) in your scenemanager that either pauses, resets or destroys your scene manager. Back in the playercontroller class I would set the correct viewtarget. And if you needed to change anything at a later date you could, because it wouldn’t be in a built-in class.
Anywho here is an example, put this in your playercontroller class:
Code:
exec function StartMatinee()
{
local SceneManager scene;
//if(isViewingMatinee()) return;
foreach DynamicActors(class'SceneManager',scene)
{
if(scene.bIsSceneStarted || scene.bIsRunning) continue;
scene.Trigger(self,pawn);
break;
}
}
exec function KillMatinee()
{
local SceneManager scene;
local MatAction action;
local MatSubAction subaction;
local int i,j;
foreach DynamicActors(class'SceneManager',scene)
{
if(!scene.bIsRunning || !scene.bIsSceneStarted) continue;
scene.bIsRunning=false;
scene.bIsSceneStarted=false;
for(i=0;i < scene.Actions.length;i++)
{
action = scene.Actions[i];
if(action != none)
{
for(j=0;j < action.SubActions.length;j++)
{
subaction=action.SubActions[j];
if(subaction != none && subaction.status == SASTATUS_Running)
subaction.status=SASTATUS_Ending;
}
}
}
scene.SceneEnded();
SetViewTarget(pawn);
}
