How do you make animpos apply to all animations instantly?
It doesn't work like that in my game.

animpos will change the frame of your current animation only

get animpos
change animation
put animpos?

( theory not tested ) :wink:

OK - I tried to make a demo.

http://www.artsystems.com.au/game%20editor/demo%20-%20animpos%20sync.zip

An actor with two animations.

ON Mouse Down Event:

Code: Select all: double oldAnimPos = animpos; if ( animindex == getAnimIndex("katie 01") ) ChangeAnimation("Event Actor", "lily 01", FORWARD); else ChangeAnimation("Event Actor", "katie 01", FORWARD); animpos = oldAnimPos;

But...

It doesn't seem to work.

The animation position resets to the first frame. Not to the same frame as the previous animation.

Makslane may know what I am doing wrong. He is good at this kind of thing. :wink:

I dont any more help, though. I don't need this code for now...

Hi!
I'm interested in this question, because I've got same problem...when I'm changing the gun, my player resets animation and it looks bad.
I was thinking about similar code like jazz_e_bob showed, but like he I find out that it's not working.
Do you have any ideas how to take care of this?

No, I just plain gave up on this. I needed the code for another site, but by then I found they didn't want my game anymore.

Sorry!

Here are some threads on ANIMINDEX and an example to see how it works. It might help :wink:

To change animation without reset current frame, just use the "No change" option in Change Animation action (NO_CHANGE in script)

Sorry all, I have put this option a long time ago, but forget update the docs :oops:
