BTCheckTrigger
==============

**Inherits:** :ref:`BTCondition<class_BTCondition>` **<** :ref:`BTTask<class_BTTask>` **<** :ref:`BT<class_BT>`

BT condition that checks a trigger (a boolean variable).

.. rst-class:: classref-introduction-group

Description
-----------

**BTCheckTrigger** verifies whether the :ref:`variable<class_BTCheckTrigger_property_variable>` is set to ``true``. If it is, the task switches it to ``false`` and returns ``SUCCESS``. Otherwise, it returns ``FAILURE``.

\ **BTCheckTrigger** can function as a "gate" within a :ref:`BTSequence<class_BTSequence>`: when the trigger variable is set to ``true``, it permits the execution of subsequent tasks and then changes the variable to ``false``.
