What do I need to do to make this code work?

Custom script: call SetUnitByAnimationIndex(udg_Hero,animation2)



I'm trying to make it do an animation, but the editor keeps disabling the trigger . What do I have to fill in???

Why dont you use GUI?

 

[Coolty44]

find out what the animation tag for "animation2" acually is, and then put it there instead of a tag that doesn't exist for the unit (EG. Attack -1 , Defend Stand, Stand - 1, ect, ect)

hmmm

OKay coolty I tried what you said and the script looks like this


Custom script: call SetUnitByAnimationIndex(udg_Naruto,morph alternate)


But this time it said "expected a function name" and turned the trigger off.

Naruto = unit variable for triggering unit

morph alternate = animation name. So whats wrong?

It's supposed to be Custom script: call SetUnitAnimationByIndex(udg_Hero,animation2) and make sure animation2 is an integer.

Edit: if you want to set animation by the animation name, do something like Custom script: call SetUnitAnimation(udg_Hero, "attack")

i think the animation is *Stand Alternate*

So do I just copy that exactly in the custom script or does it need variables or anything?

 

[Microdragon6]

Can you write it so I can just copy/paste it into custom script please?

 

[maskedpoptart]

call SetUnitAnimationByIndex(udg_Hero, 2)

Just copy/paste that into a custom script. That will play "Hero"'s second animation. If that's not the animation you want, try changing the number to 0,1,3,4,etc. until you find the animation you want.... Personally, I prefer setting the animation by name since I know exactly what animation it will play. To set it by name, copy/paste:

call SetUnitAnimation(udg_Hero, "attack")

and replace "attack" with whatever animation you want to play, whether it's "stand", "spell", or whatever.

 

[Microdragon6]

with that first script it said "compile error" "expected a name" ????


this is what I put for the script
Custom script: call SetUnitAnimationByIndex(udg_Hero, 2)
