Random animations

[ingsan]

i have 6 animations in one actor. I want to play them randomly ie 1 5 3 4 6.... or 6 4 2 3 6 1 5 2 6 4 3 4 and so on.

Should i work with ChangeAnimation or animindex(well i don't know how to use that option yet ) or any other thing?

Thank You !

At the Animation Finish Event try something like:

int animToRun = round(rand(6));

switch(animToRun)

case 1;
Change to anim 1
case 2;
Change to anim 2
case 3;
Change to anim 3

etc
etc

I followed ur advice ! and it works perfect.
What i wrote is the following :

Code: Select all

int animToRun=round(rand(4));
switch (animToRun)
{
 case 1:
        CreateTimer("Event Actor", "M1", 4000);
        break;
 
 case 2:
        CreateTimer("Event Actor", "M2", 3000);
        break;
 case 3:
        CreateTimer("Event Actor", "M3", 4000);
        break;
 case 4:
        CreateTimer("Event Actor", "M4", 3000);
        break;
}

and at each Timer, ChangeAnimation
