Synchronizing Child Animation

pHrEaKzOiD

Hi,

I have an agent that I want to synchronize using the Transform View and Animator View. The parent/root is the agent and has the Transform View component attached, however: the actual animated agent(s) are children of this root object. Can you advise the best approach to synchronizing the animation for the child?

Do I need to modify the 'Photon Animation View' for this case or is there already a way to handle these kinds of setups?

Any help offered would be much appreciated.

Hey @pHrEaKzOiD ✭,
I suggest you do not sync the animations. Just predict where character is heading or is he jumping etc and play it on local side.

I manage that like this and it seems working fine!

void PredictAnimation()
{
if (previousLoc == Vector3.zero)
return;

Vector3 pos = transform.position;

// if player is in air dont play animation
if (!character.isPlayerGrounded)
{
StopMovingAnim();
return;
}

if (pos.x > previousLoc.x) // movinRight
{
animState aState = tag == "blue" ? animState.forward : animState.backward;
character.animator.SetBool(aState, true);
}
else if (pos.x < previousLoc.x) // movinLeft
{
animState aState = tag == "blue" ? animState.backward : animState.forward;
character.animator.SetBool(aState, true);
}
else
{
StopMovingAnim();
}
previousLoc = transform.position;
}

Have a nice work.
