Running an animation clip

Mike

I want a dungeon portcullis to rise up when it's hotspot is clicked on. I've created the clip and put an action in Portcullis use to run the clip, but it seems to run once as soon as I press play, before I get to the portcullis and click on it. How can I make it run only when I click on the hotspot?

Hi Mike,

If you are importing an Animation using the Animation component instead of the Animator, make sure you deselect "Play Automatically" on the component.

If you are using the Animator component with an animation controller (mecanim), maybe your animation transitioned from the entry point, which would trigger it immediately. You would need to create an empty state and select it as the default.

Let me know if that helps.

Thank you Paramburu. I will check out those points and let you know how it goes
