yo mb for pinging

[civic zephyr]

alr let me see the setup and you still didnt explain what the purpose of this animation is

because from what you describe if you spawn a prefab wouldnt PlayOnAwake be sufficent ?

[astral forge]

Okay so basically everytime this button is clicked two animtions occur the tenticle and water

But I want the water to animate ONLY when it pops out the of pipe

[astral forge]

Sure I guess

I can test it out

public bool or trigger?

[civic zephyr]

wait

is the water prefab?

im confused

thought u kept spawning it

myb so what is wrong putting the Play transition in the button again

[astral forge]

Yeah it is

[astral forge]

Theres 4 objects that I want spawned one after another

but let's say a water spawns out the pipe and I click glass

it does the glass animation where glass enters the bin

[civic zephyr]

when does glass enter bin

so you dont want it on the button click but when it enters?

or

[astral forge]

I want it on button click but I don't want it to display if it isn't in the scene view

Or hierachy

[civic zephyr]

it shouldnt no ?

[astral forge]

Right now when the game starts they all automatically animate and go into their bin

I want them to spawn and when I click the button they animate and disappear

[civic zephyr]

ok yeah so call the SetTrigger

you probably also need transition to go back to empty state with no params (just exit time)

[astral forge]

Okay thank you

[civic zephyr]

I think you can directly just do it in the inspector like this

or whatever you called your parameter for transition

[astral forge]

Oh Ok thanks

[astral forge]

Still..

But it is spawning in and not instantly falling into the trash

[civic zephyr]

how many times are you clicking it

could be issue with trigger

[astral forge]

any way to fix it?

[civic zephyr]

youd have to use some code to make sure it isn't already playing

this would be much simpler with code

[astral forge]

Hm Ok

I tried doing this with event orders

but that just completely removes it

mb wrong vid

I want the cloned object to animate just like what happens when I click the button

I tried doing this with event orders

video is very laggy hold up..

[civic zephyr]

wdym event orders?

[astral forge]

Like an event order in the animation where the object deletes itself

I don't want it to to delete though

[astral forge]

Damn this vid is laggy

😭 ..

[civic zephyr]

the video is laggy but not the problem lol I still dont know what is the relation beteen the animations and the buttons

just trying to understand

[astral forge]

Animation plays once button is pressed

But the animation doesn't play on the instantiated object..

[civic zephyr]

yes because ur referencing the something else

another animatorthat isnt the spawned object

[astral forge]

Yeah someone told me to do an add.component with the instantiate script

[civic zephyr]

nah

just add a method to the object

and when the method runs it controls its own animator

[astral forge]

How do I do that

All I'm doing is instantiating a prefab and I'm trying to add an animation to it

[civic zephyr]

yeah mate you're gonna have to go through some basic courses

this will be a lot to explain references lol

[astral forge]

Alright

(I have one day to learn this and its 1 AM rn) 🔥

ScriptOnTheObject myInstance = Instantiate(prefab etc..)
myInstance.PlayAnimation();```
