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.

• Custom script: call QueueUnitAnimation(whichUnit, whichStringAnimation)

However, I don't seem to find QueueUnitAnimationByIndex yet.

btw, when you need to find the jass equivalent of GUI things, just create the action in GUI then hit convert to custom script...

@Adiktuz: I know how to do that, but I need a function that will queue animation by index.
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. That's why I can't use string, and have to use index.

well you said that, "However, I need one for queuing animations, like in GUI, but in JASS" so I assumed there exists one in GUI in which you queue using ID because that is what that statement says...

well since it doesn't seem it exists, you can maybe create the queue yourself, though it might be pretty to keep track...

or maybe, hmmm... I think there's a queue trigger function, if it exists then you can make one trigger for each index which uses the Set animation by index, then queue the triggers instead...

if it doesn't exist too, then doing the queue yourself using timers and such might be your best bet...

Thanks, bro. But can I make one trigger that uses a Index like this:

• PlayAnimation
  • Events:
  • Conditions:
  • Actions:
    • call SetUnitAnimationByIndex(udg_MyUnit,(AnimationIndex))

With AnimationIndex being set with a previous trigger:

• SetAnimation
  • Events:
  • Conditions:
  • Actions:
    • set AnimationIndex = 32
    • Run PlayAnimation (Ignoring Conditions)

?

Yes you can.
