Right now the "run_charge" animation is selected by using the "replace anim" spawnarg in the weapon entity def. The run is replaced as long as the weapon entity is def_attached, regardless of the joint. What would be useful is some way to create "replace anim" spawnargs that check the joint they're attached to. |
 |
If we create a new spawnarg: "joint_for_anim_replacement" "<name of joint>" that would mean when that entity is attached at that joint, the replace_anim_* spawnargs take effect. If the entity is attached at a different joint, then the replacement spawnargs are ignored. So, for the sword, for example, we'd add: "joint_for_anim_replacement" "LeftHand" If the attachment doesn't have "joint_for_anim_replacement" defined (like the torch), then the replacement anims are honored. |

Or we change the syntax of the replace_anim_* spawnarg to add a 'joint name': "replace_anim_LeftHand_run" "run_charge" Then you could have "replace_anim_LeftHand_run" "run_charge" "replace_anim_Hip_run" "run_with_something_on_hip" which lets you have different animations depending on where the attachment is attached. But when using the spawnargs on AI themselves, not with attachments, we'd have to have: "replace_anim_Self_idle_spit" "idle_check_hand" which means when the code sees the joint name "Self" it ignores it and honors the replacement. |

Change replace_anim syntax to: "replace_anim_<replacedAnimation>[ jointName]" "<replacingAnimation>" Change affected animations in *.def files. rev. 5369: Actor.cpp Actor.h AFEntity.cpp AFEntity.h Entity.cpp Entity.h rev. 12760: tdm_moveable_weapons.def |
