# Trap

![](/files/-MW52yrB3TICfe0xbU26)

This component organizes the different [mechanisms](/traps/trap-mechanism.md) into a single trap and activates them when it is triggered.

![](/files/-MW-m8FocT-hllABncHj)

* **Start Mode:** Selecting the OnAwake option will automatically activate the trap when the game starts. OnEvent allows you to activate with a TrapTrigger or directly from a script.
* **Sync:** Uncheck this option to set an activation delay for each mechanism.
* **Mechanism:** You can add or remove as many mechanisms as needed.

You can access the following methods and parameters from the code.

```csharp
// Returns if the trap is currently active or not.
bool isActive { get; }    

// Activates the trap if Start Mode is set to OnEvent.
void Activate()     

// Inactivates the trap.
void Deactivate()

// Toggles between active and inactive states. 
// Can only activate if Start Mode is set to OnEvent.            
void Toggle()                
```
