BlendSpace2d node problem

fono

Hallo,

I've tried the BlendSpace2d node. It doesn't seem to loop the animation. I've an idle animation, a walk animation and a run animation. Well, if i run the animation from the Animation player they loop fine. If i use them from code no loop at all.

I was following a tutorial on youtube.

Here's my code. No errors. Loop enabled for every animations. Any idea? Thanks a lot.

extends Spatial


const locomotion_type ={
	'idle' : Vector2(0,0),
	'run' : Vector2(0,2),
	'walk' : Vector2(1,0)
	
}

onready var animator = $AnimationPlayer/AnimationTree



# Called every frame. 'delta' is the elapsed time since the previous frame.
func _process(delta):
	var target = null
	
	if Input.is_action_pressed("walk"):
		target = locomotion_type.walk
		if Input.is_action_pressed("run"):
			target = locomotion_type.run
	else:
		target = locomotion_type.idle
		
	animator['parameters/locomotion/blend_position'] = target

Might it have something to-do with locomotion_type being a constant? Then again, target that you are assigning values to and actually reading from is a var, perhaps the issue is that at the beginning of _process() it gets reset to null again? Might want to try moving the definition of target outside the _process() perhaps?

Just some quick thoughts that occur without much deeper thought going into it.

hey,

thanks for replying.

I've tried. I've move the definition outside the process(delta). All the animations do play only a one shot. By the way i've added in Blender the suffix loop at the end of every animations. No clue at all. I've tried this tutorial.

All went smootly except for the loop.

And the animation player also has autoplay and looping on and all that?

Ok,

My fault. it works in version 3.21 i was using by mistake ver 3.12 sorry. Now what i'm missing is a tutorial for the node itself: the blendspace2d node. How can i know if an animation has finished to play using it with a blendspace2d node? I'm tempted to move to a state machine however i will explore the subject better.

Thanks.

Using the state machine provided by the animationtree node might actually be the easier solution in the long term.

The real solution to my question, is to care about the naming convention used for looped animation. Godot apparently require to append to every animation "_loop" if you plan to use the animation as looped. Once i've fixed the naming issue all was ok.
