Well, as we know, we can make actors appear randomly.

Is there theoretically also a way to make animations happen randomly? I.e the "change animation" event not to be pointed to a special animation but to be choosen randomly among a defined series of animations contained in the actor (not all!) This would be great for fighting figures, their actions could become more unpredictable.

I'm not sure if I understood right your question, but you can use random animpos.

And I am not sure if I understood your answer "animpos?"

The question was:

An actor can contain different animations. Normally you manage it via events which animation is played when and why. Can it be done, that as a response to an event, a random animation within the actor is played?

Code: Select all

int i=round(rand(your number of animations));
switch(i)
{
case(0):
Change Animation (...
break;
case(1):
Change Animation (...
break;
...
}

It can be also done with an if statement, but it's easier with a switch if there are many animations.

Cool! VERY COOL!
