Setting timing for animations.

KosMalakhov

Hi

I have the following situation. NPC gives our player an item - animation. Player takes item  - another animation. Here how it looks in editor

The problem is that in such situation animation "Give phone" doesn't play and engine jumps directly to animation "Take_DR". I can't check wait until finish because NPC moves his arm back to the rest pose and Player takes nothing from the air. I've recorder a video, with wait until finish and without.

Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance.

What's the NPC's "Animation engine", and in what version of AC?

The Actions look fine, but there are many others that surround it - perhaps one that runs afterwards cancels it.  Try testing the two animation Actions in a separate Cutscene that only animates the two characters.  If it doesn't work with Wait until finish unchecked, how about when you insert an Engine: Wait Action between them.

Maybe you should add some " transition time " between! As far as I can see, the first animation is in front of the other so it might be appropriate to separate them to work in ActionList:Run in parallel
