How to edit a state from SGwilson?

[. . .]

Hello, I need some help if someone could help me that'd really be great !

So, I'm trying to make a action for my character, & the character can move while preforming it. However, the problem is when my character moves while doing it, it makes my character play the run anim, canceling the the action's anim..

Here's the code!

Spoiler

local function powerup(act)
	  
   if act.target.powerup == nil then
      
	  act.target.AnimState:PlayAnimation("powerup")

	  
	     act.target.powerup = true
	     act.target.stealthsteps:set(true)
	     act.target.components.locomotor:SetExternalSpeedMultiplier(act.target, "powerup", 1.25)

	  
	  act.target:DoTaskInTime(.5, function()
	     ShakeAllCameras(CAMERASHAKE.VERTICAL,.4, .04, .4, act.target, .01)
	     act.target.components.locomotor:RemoveExternalSpeedMultiplier(act.target, "jumping")
	     act.target.stealthsteps:set(false)
	     act.target.powerup = nil
	  end)
	  
   end
end

 

So, is there a way I can make it that no other anim interrupts this anim while this action is being played? Maybe with a certain value or something?

Thanks so much for reading my problem & have a great day/night !!

changing stategraph maybe ?

Maybe I can change the run state to not play any anim with certain value, but how would I edit the run state? If I copypaste SGwilson then edit it then any new states or mod states would crash the game ..

I am not sure if that helps you but I had a similar problem on my mod where I needed to increase the speed of an action and ended up hijacking the UpdateState-method and just replaced the current state with my own altered state-table.

Maybe you can use that approach for your mod too:

 

local origin_updateState = player.sg.UpdateState
player.sg.UpdateState = function(...)
	if not player.sg.currentstate then 
		return
	end
	
	if YOUR_ACTION_IS_RUNNING_AND_THE_CURRENT_STATE_WILL_CANCEL_IT then
		player.sg.currentstate = YOUR_OWN_STATE
	end
	
	origin_updateState(...)
end

 

You can see the code working in this mod (in scripts/components/DsMMO.lua):

The function for creating my own state ( DsMMO:update_actionSpeed ) is at line 924.

UpdateState is replaced at line 816
