Smarter Unitz with the New User Flags Tools

More control for your creations.

A few weeks ago, we released the first version of the User Flags system, and we've been blown away by what you've already built! From color-coded team games to multi-step puzzles and access systems, Woozens have used Flags in creative ways we never imagined.


If you missed the first release or want a quick refresher on how User Flags work, check out our original blog post here.


Now it's time for the next step. This update brings a bunch of new pods and improvements to help you design smarter, more interactive Unitz than ever before.

Let's see what's new!


Update: AreaPods and Floor Switches

You can now lock your AreaPods and Floor Switches behind User Flags!

If a Flag is required, only users who have that Flag can trigger the Floor Switch or be counted in the Area.

Perfect for:

  • Team-only play zones
  • Secret or VIP areas
  • Unlockable stages in mini-games


NEW: Flag Counter Pod

The Flag Counter automatically counts how many Woozens in your Unitz have a specific Flag, and then outputs a second signal when a target is reached.

It works like an AreaPod that covers your entire Unitz.

Use it to:

  • Start the game when enough players have joined a team
  • Unlock an event once a certain number of users meet a condition
  • Trigger a visual or sound effect when everyone in the Unitz completes their task


NEW: Teleport Effect Pod

Note: This pod will be available later next week.

The TeleportEffect Pod automatically teleports users when they gain a certain Flag.

Examples:

  • When a player joins Team Red, send them straight to the Red Zone
  • Move users to a "winner's area" when they earn a Victory Flag
  • Instantly move Woozens to different spots inside your Unitz based on their current role


NEW: Toggle Pod

Simple but powerful: the Toggle Pod gives or removes a single Flag when a user clicks it.

Each click switches between "has it" and "doesn't have it."

Try it for:

  • Join/Leave team buttons
  • Light-switch style puzzles
  • Quick status or costume toggles


NEW: Studio Flags Giver & Cleaner

These pods act like the basic User Flags Pods but affect everyone in your Unitz at once!

You can trigger them manually or through wiring to reset or assign Flags to all players simultaneously.

They're perfect for:

  • Resetting Flags between game rounds
  • Setting up starting roles or teams for everyone at once
  • Wiping all Flags to start a brand-new event



NEW: Random Flags Pod

Feeling lucky? The RandomFlag Pod assigns one random Flag from the list you configure.

You set a weight (probability) for each Flag - only one will be chosen, and all other Flags with a non-zero weight are removed automatically. Flags set to "0" are ignored.



Use it to:

  • Randomly assign Woozens to Red, Blue, or Yellow teams
  • Give out random powers, or abilities
  • Let users roll for a surprise role or starting condition in your game


NEW: Flags Checker Pod

The Flags Checker is your new logic powerhouse.

It has 20 outputs - two for each possible Flag - and checks which Flags a user has.

When a Woozen interacts, it sends signals to the "HAS Flag" or "NOT Flag" output for each one.



Example:

If a user is on Team Red but not Team Blue, the pod sends signals for "HAS Red" and "NOT Blue."

It's the perfect flag checker for advanced creators who want to route players into different paths, logic chains, or story outcomes.


NEW: AreaPod & Floor Switch Flags Giver

You can now give or remove Flags directly through AreaPods and Switches!


They work exactly like standard Flag Giver Pods - you choose which Flags to add or remove - but with a twist:

You can decide whether the Flags are permanent, or only active while the user stays in the area or on the switch.



Use them to:

  • Let Woozens choose their team by stepping into a specific zone (ex: "Red Zone" or "Blue Zone")
  • Create areas that assign roles or states when entered
  • Set up pressure pads that temporarily activate a team status or unlock a section
  • Build timed puzzles or cooperative challenges that depend on users standing in the right zones
  • Combine with a Teleport Effect Pod to create traps!


Keep Creating, Keep Surprising!

These new additions take the User Flags system to the next level. Whether you're designing a competitive arena, a mystery adventure, or an interactive show, these pods give you the flexibility to make your Unitz react to every Woozen's actions.

We can't wait to see the new experiences you'll bring to life!
