Patriarachnid Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 I am currently making a mod that adds some creatures built entirely from scratch. So far, everything's going peachy; the creature acts like it's supposed to, animates when it's supposed to, the whole nine yards. The only problem is that, when walking, the creature will only face right, never to the left, so it's often just walking backwards. I'm not sure what the problem is. The stategraph is working fine, the "canrotate" tag is added where it's supposed to, the brain is working, everything seems to be in order except for that one stupid thing. I've been working on this for a few days now, to no avail. Any ideas as to what the problem is?

Corrosive Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 (edited) I may be mistaken, but I believe the "canrotate" tag has to do with changing the movement direction in the middle of the animation. probably mistaken Does the creature use a different animation for up/down? If so is that working?

Patriarachnid Posted February 7, 2015 Author Share Posted February 7, 2015 The creature does have different animation files for up and down, but visually they're identical to the side ones (it's a long worm creature, and perspective is hard). Just to test, though, I changed the up and down animations, and they did not work; the creature kept using just its facing-right walk animation.The creature does have different animation files for up and down, but visually they're identical to the side ones (it's a long worm creature, and perspective is hard).

Corrosive Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 (edited) That is interesting. If you're willing to attach (or send me directly if you are uncomfortable with that) files pertaining to the creature*, I'm more than happy to fiddle around with it to see if I can discern why that's happening. *compiled, as would be included in the finished product-- the .zip with the animations and the prefab/stategraph files Edited February 7, 2015 by Corrosive Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/50633-creature-sprite-not-rotating/#findComment-610622 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corrosive Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 In your initialization function, after you call inst.entity:AddTransform(), try calling inst.Transform:SetFourFaced().
