[Trigger] [trigger] "play unit animation" can't function very well

[jareph]

• Untitled Trigger 001
  • Events
    • Time - Every 0.50 seconds of game time
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Animation - Reset Succubus 0027 <gen>'s animation
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • i Equal to 0
      • Then - Actions
        • Set i = 1
        • Animation - Play Succubus 0027 <gen>'s attack - 1 animation
      • Else - Actions
        • Set i = 0
        • Animation - Play Succubus 0027 <gen>'s attack - 2 animation

this what i write,
what it do:
sometime attack -1 and sometime attack - 2

what he do juz same like the trigger:

• Untitled Trigger 002
  • Events
    • Time - Every 0.50 seconds of game time
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Animation - Reset Succubus 0027 <gen>'s animation
    • Animation - Play Succubus 0027 <gen>'s attack animation

so how to play a specify animation?

You don't manually make the title prefix

• . You should place this in the Triggers & Scripts section. It's better for the forum organisation and better for you, since you'll get an answer quicker and don't get someone like me, posting that you should post elsewhere.
• About your question: Is it 'Attack - 1' or is the animation actually called 'Attack-1' (without the spaces)?

and that cant work...

You could use this function:

• Custom script: call SetUnitAnimationByIndex(YOUR_UNIT, A_NUMBER)

and replace YOUR_UNIT with a unit variable and A_NUMBER with a number. The only problem with this function is that you need to find out which number you need for your animation. The number can be from 0 to the number of animations you got-1.

Also, a problem that can arise is if a units regular animations interrupt that animtion your trying to run (like if that unit is walking it can't play its attack animation). Might try pausing the unit first. That set i = 1 stuff is useless btw since there in no wait function or anything (and if there was a wait function it would still be useless in this situation).
