I'm trying to figure out how to have an actor look at another actors animation & change its animation in accordance to what animation the other actor is currently on. I know how to do this within the same actor, just not another...

do you really need getAnimIndex?
because u can do with animindex
for example

Code: Select all

if(player.animindex == 3)

thanks a lot that's exactly what I needed
O and just to clarify I didn't mean getAnimIndex of another actor I just meant monitor AnimIndex of another actor (using get AnimIndex in the title was just poor judgement on my part lol )

(How im using it, in case if someone else needs help with this. Just put your names over my dumb ones)

Code: Select all

if(paddle.animindex == 0)
{
    ChangeAnimation("ball", "green_ball", STOPPED);
}
else if(paddle.animindex ==1)
{
    ChangeAnimation("ball", "violet_ball", STOPPED);
}
