help with creating dynamic mobile buttons

[McManford]

Hey guys I was wondering if there's a way through unrealscript to add buttons and be able to change their location on the fly during gameplay. in other words if i can have their x and y location be variables i can change whenever i run a function of some sort.

Yeah, you could program that into a tick function to execute every frame.

cool, could you show me an example on how the tick function works with those mobile buttons and do i have to declare the button in the defaultgame.ini, if i want to add any additional buttons?

and thanks for the response.

I should put in script i attempt to make for my game, easier for others to follow.

class SeqAct_MyUberMobileButton extends SeqAct_MobileAddInputZones;

/* Our X and Y coordinates */
var() float YLoc;
var() float XLoc;

/** All the details needed to set up a zone */
//var() editinline MobileInputZone NewZone;

event Activated()
{

	NewZone.X = XLoc;
	NewZone.Y = YLoc;
	
}

DefaultProperties
{
   ////Button
   ObjName="Add My Unique Input Zone"
   ObjCategory="Mobile"

   XLoc = 0
   YLoc = 0

   InputLinks(0)=(LinkDesc="In")
   OutputLinks(0)=(LinkDesc="Out")

   ////Variable external setup
   VariableLinks(1)=(ExpectedType=class'SeqVar_float', LinkDesc="YLoc", bWriteable=true, PropertyName=YLoc)
   VariableLinks(2)=(ExpectedType=class'SeqVar_float', LinkDesc="XLoc", bWriteable=true, PropertyName=XLoc)
}

was trying to find a way to access the mobile buttons' variable for my game. but in the process I end up creating another button sequence. What am i doing wrong in this script?
