animation woes

| having a few problemd with this. I want my player when he has stopped walking to be still for a few secs then go in to his idle animation. whats happening is the timer is working but then I get a rapid burst of animation( like its just playing one frame or something) then it goes back to the still sequence. what should happen is that the idle animtion should loop until you exit the idle state. Its probably real obvious that i am a bit out of my depth here, but I need to get it wokring delayTime=1500 ; 1 1/2 secs time_to_wait=millisecs()+delayTime ; use 0 for no initial delay Function UpdatePlayer( p.Player ) walkstate=False If KeyDown(200) ;walk forward walkstate=True MoveEntity p\entity,0,0,.2 If Animating(p\model)=p\walk Animate p\model,3,.7,1 EndIf EndIf ;Walking back If KeyDown(208) walkstate=True MoveEntity p\entity,0,0,-.2 If Animating(p\model)=p\walk Animate p\model,3,-.7 EndIf EndIf If KeyDown(203) ; left/right TurnEntity p\entity,0,2,0 ;turn player left/right Else If KeyDown(205) TurnEntity p\entity,0,-2,0 EndIf ;stopped If walkstate=False stopstate=True Animate p\model,1,0,2,5;play no animation to simluate stop before entering idle state If MilliSecs()>=time_to_wait If Animating(p\model)=p\idle;idle animation Animate p\model,3,.2,2;play idle animation after delay time_to_wait=MilliSecs()+delayTime End If EndIf EndIf ;footstep cycles If KeyDown(200) Or KeyDown(208) p\footStepCycle=p\footStepCycle+0.5 Else p\footStepCycle=0 EndIf If p\footStepCycle=11.0 PlaySound footsteps p\footStepCycle=0 EndIf I tried to use the code darlordz gave me for the timer , but I don't really understand it to be honest |

| I am not sure what the problem is, but maybe it has something to do with the keyframes? Every Sequence should have keys on all bones on the first frame. This will allow to reset each sequence properly. |

| hmm perhaps its because I am using one frame from the idle sequence as a still sequence . i may try a different approach |
