Im getting these errors in the content log, no other error is shown:
[Molang][error]-kai:ghost | MolangScriptArg::get<>() called on incompatible type
[Rendering][error]-kai:ghost | Render Controller: controller.render.ghost is missing its default texture
This is my render controller:
{
"format_version": "1.8.0",
"render_controllers": {
"controller.render.ghost": {
"arrays": {
"textures": {
"Array.textures": [ "Texture.default" ]
}
},
"geometry": "Geometry.default",
"materials": [ { "*": "Material.default" } ],
"textures": [ "Array.textures" ]
}
}
}

How to trigger an attack animation when my mob attacks?
My animation controller:
{
"format_version" : "1.10.0",
"animation_controllers" : {
"controller.animation.ghost.move" : {
"initial_state" : "default",
"states" : {
"default" : {
"animations" : [ "move" ]
}
}
},
"controller.animation.ghost.attack" : {
"initial_state" : "default",
"states" : {
"default" : {
"animations" : [ "attack" ]
}
}
}
}
}
what's your attack type melee or delay?
upper tartan
then use v.attack_time > 0
crimson sand
Where?
upper tartan
"initial_state": "default",
"states": {
"default": {
"variables": {
"move_speed": {
"input": "query.modified_move_speed",
"remap_curve": {
"0.0": 0,
"0.1": 1
}
},
"is_idling": {
"input": "query.modified_move_speed",
"remap_curve": {
"0.0": 1,
"0.1": 0
}
}
},
"animations": [
{"entity_move_anim": "variable.move_speed"},
{"entity_idle_anim": "variable.is_idling"}
],
"transitions": [
{"attack_anim": "v.attack_time > 0"}
],
"blend_transition": 0.2
},
"attack_anim": {
"animations": ["attack_anim"],
"transitions": [
{"default": "q.all_animations_finished"}
],
"blend_transition": 0.2
}
}
},```Can you please explain me this?
upper tartan
which one?

All this
upper tartan
well, I don't really know how the remap curve work so you can read this it's all just trial and error on my part so you can read this https://bedrock.dev/docs/stable/Animations#Transforms
for the way how the animation work here well the transition is for switching to another animation using molang, the blend_transitions is to smooth out the way the animation goes from one to another "animations" is the name of the animation you want
crimson sand
Okay, thank you
This seems to be the only issue im experiencing
I really doubt the issue is the animation, because it does not has this issue in bb
upper tartan
what keyframe did you use for the idle?
crimson sand
Where can I see that? The keyframe page is empty
If you mean the animation length, it is 4.125
upper tartan
crimson sand
There is no way I can get that to be shown 😅
Not sure if this is it:
Im selecting the body bone by the way, which includes all the bones
Yeah that should be it
upper tartan
can I see the whole timeline of the keyframe?
crimson sand
upper tartan
make sure all the last keyframe is at the end of the loop
crimson sand
How exactly I can make sure of that? Sorry, animation is not much of my topic
upper tartan
like this
crimson sand
So this should be good?
Unrelated issue. When I attack my entity it starts flying like a balloon, plus sometimes it randomly falls?
Im using the vanilla behavior file of the vex.
crimson sand
Hey! @upper tartan Thank you very much, the keyframes were the issue. 🙂
I was wondering, do you know how I could make my entity attack animation be played a bit earlier than the attack itself?
upper tartan
well that would be delayed attack
crimson sand
Oh I see, how does that work?
In a related question... I want my ghost to have these animations:
idle(when idling)float(when moving)
How can I define the difference?
upper tartan
just use the animation control I gave you above
crimson sand
I did, though, animation is not playing, just idle
"animations": [
{"float": "variable.move_speed"},
{"idle": "variable.is_idling"}
]
Oh, my mistake. Had something spell wrong on the entity file. That part works perfectly
crimson sand
Bump on this. Im still in the need to know how to make delayed attacks
wise valley
Bump on this. Im still in the need to know how to make delayed attacks
have you tried using minecraft:behavior.delayed_attack?
crimson sand
I haven't! That sounds like exactly what I need, thank you! Will try and update the post
