* Add a trigger to the mannequin.
Before you begin, it's helpful to know that there are three components that go into creating a functioning mannequin:
** Select the mannequin (''PlayerHouseMannequin'') and from the toolbar click '''Create Trigger''' button (it's the cube with the "T" inside). Select ''MannequinActivateTrig'' from the drop menu and click OK. The red trigger box will automatically cover the mannequin.
* ''PlayerHouseMannequin''
* ''XMarkerHeading''
* ''MannequinActivateTrig''


* Edit the references and link them together.
First, add a ''PlayerHouseMannequin'' to the space. It can be located under ''Actors/Actor''
** Edit ''PlayerHouseMannequin''. In the '''Linked Ref''' tab, add ''XMarkerHeading''. In the '''Activate Parents''' tab, add ''MannequinActivateTrig'' and check the '''Parent Activate Only''' box.
Second, add the ''XMarkerHeading'' next to the 'PlayerHouseMannequin'.  Place it next to the mannequin, but not on top.
** Edit ''XMarkerHeading'' > In the '''Linked Ref'' tab, add ''PlayerHouseMannequin''.
Third, with the ''PlayerHouseMannequin'' selected, click the ''Create Trigger'' button on the toolbar.  The icon looks like a cube with a "T" on the front of it.
** Edit ''MannequinActivateTrig'' > In the '''Primitive''' tab, check the "Player Activation" box.
You now have all the components necessary.


Your mannequin (and its trigger) need to be inside the marker box, both facing the '''same''' direction! So put everything together with the move tool. Save the mod and launch the game.
Editing the PlayerHouseMannequin:
* Double click the ''PlayerHouseMannequin'' to open the edit window.  Careful to not accident;y double click the ''MannequinActivateTrig'' box that surrounds the mannequin, usually the mannequin's hands stick out from the box and can be selected by double clicking on the exposed hands.
** Choose the '''Linked Ref''' tab, right click in the empty field, and choose '''new'''.  The ''Choose Reference'' window will open, choose '''Select Reference in Render Window'''.  Then double click the ''XMarkerHeading'', and choose '''OK'''.
** Choose the '''Activate Parents''' tab and right click in the empty field, and choose '''new'''.  The 'Choose Reference' window will open, choose '''Select Reference in Render Window'''.  Then double click the ''MannequinActivateTrig'' box that surrounds the mannequin, and choose '''OK'''.  Check the box marked '''Parent Activate Only''' and then close the edit window by choosing '''OK'''.
 
Editing the XMarkerHeading:
* Double click the ''XMarkerHeading'' object to open the edit window.
** Choose the '''Linked Ref''' tab, right click in the empty field, and choose '''new'''.  The ''Choose Reference'' window will open, choose '''Select Reference in Render Window'''. Then double click the ''PlayerHouseMannequin'', and choose '''OK'''.  Choose '''OK''' again to close the edit window.
