Animation Queue - JASS line

[TheWhiteWolf]

Hi, I need one JASS line. I know how to set a single animation:

• call SetUnitAnimationByIndex(udg_MyUnit,(AnimationIndex))

However, I need one for queuing animations, like in GUI, but in JASS, if you know what I mean. Please, help me. As usual, any help will be rewarded with rep.

This would be the native for queueing animations:

native          QueueUnitAnimation          takes unit whichUnit, string whichAnimation returns nothing

Ex:

call QueueUnitAnimation(udg_MyUnit, "attack")

However, there is not a native to queue animations by index. You have to use the name of the animation (string).

If I use the name ''Spell 7'' will it queue Spell 7 or a random animation with Spell tag?

I am asking this for the same reason I started the thread. I have a model with about 150 animations and I named half of them ''Spell X'' with X being a number from 1 to 70. I can't use Play unit animation or Queue unit animation, so I have to resort to JASS.

If the animation is called "Spell 7" then it should play the correct one.
Not sure if the space in between "Spell" and "7" will cause problems.

I think putting a number before the animation name doesn't mean that is a tag... because Spell 7 can be played if the unit cast a spell for example, same goes to stand 1, or attack 4, etc, etc.

Also you can't create your own animation tags, or didn't work for me some years ago when I tried that.

I understand how the Animation Tag system works, but it's kinda hard to apply it to a model with over 140 animations :/
