animation appearing over ghost

[Renamon]

Hello everyone,

Here's the general run down I need some bright minds to help me out, I've run out of ideas. I have a custom animation and build that is constantly checking and being applied due to position via the locomotor; the problem with this is the game is constantly changing the build and animation bank so when the character dies you cannot access the ghost without everything going wonky. I want to know if I can prevent the locomotor or the set local function to stop activating and from checking said position while I'm a ghost thus allowing the build to set.

alternatively, if its possible, is there a way to extend atlas's so I could just add the running build to the already created atlas and rid of the build change?

the whole idea was to have a *single* run animation be applied while having the game switch back to wilson's animation bank after the run animation was done. That part works to an extent but is providing me with a large amount of issues (mostly with the ghost being unable to appear as a ghost rather then a stationary character). does anyone know of a way to have the game check your state (ie just side running) without conflicting with the ghost build?

i'm going to attach my prefab.lua

 

 

the function i'm having issues with is

Quote

local function OnLocomote(inst, data)
if inst:HasTag("playerghost") then
return
end
elseif inst.AnimState:GetCurrentFacing() == 2 then 
inst.AnimState:SetBuild("renarun")
inst.AnimState:SetBank("renarun")
inst.AnimState:OverrideSymbol("run_loop", "renarun", "run_loop")
--print ("ended on state 2")
																				
elseif inst.AnimState:GetCurrentFacing() == 0 then 
inst.AnimState:SetBuild("renarun")
inst.AnimState:SetBank("renarun")
inst.AnimState:OverrideSymbol("run_loop", "renarun", "run_loop")
																				---use this code after testing, will tell the game to reset back to wilsons animations unless you create custom animations
elseif inst.AnimState:GetCurrentFacing () == 3 then
inst.AnimState:SetBank ("wilson")
inst.AnimState:SetBuild("rena")
--print("ended on state 3")
elseif inst.AnimState:GetCurrentFacing () == 1 then
inst.AnimState:SetBank ("wilson")
inst.AnimState:SetBuild("rena") 
																				--inst:AddTag("renawalk")

--print("ended on state 1")
end
	end

 

can anyone help me optimize this?

Thank you so very much for your time in advance, its been a few weeks.

issue resolved (kind of) game is now recognizing when the character is entering the ghost state

problem was:

local function OnLocomote(inst, data)
if inst:HasTag("playerghost") then
return
end
if inst.AnimState:GetCurrentFacing() == 2 then 
inst.AnimState:SetBuild("renarun")
inst.AnimState:SetBank("renarun")
inst.AnimState:OverrideSymbol("run_loop", "renarun", "run_loop")
--print ("ended on state 2")

the if was not supposed to be an elseif on line 5.
