[2.2] Ogre::SkeletonAnimation->setTime() behaviour Topic is solved

[old_man_auz]

Hi, I think I have weird behaviour with Ogre::SkeletonAnimation->setTime(). I want to move the animation to the end. So I do:

Code: Select all

Ogre::SkeletonAnimation* m_pSK;
Ogre::SkeletonInstance* ski = item3->getSkeletonInstance();
m_pSK = ski->getAnimation("Right");
m_pSK->setEnabled(true);
m_pSK->setTime(m_pSK->getDuration()); // or m_pSK->setFrame(m_pSK->getNumFrames());

nothing happens to the animation. To get the animation to move to the end I need to do:

Code: Select all

m_pSK->setTime(m_pSK->getDuration()-0.0001);

Is this expected behaviour, a bug or a problem with my animated mesh?

Hi!

Expected behavior.

It depends on whether's it's set to loop or not (SkeletonAnimation::setLoop).

If it's looping and you set it exactly to getDuration, it's going to warp back to 0. (i.e. if the animation lasts 3 seconds, then it's going to be 0, 1, 2.... 2.999999.... 0, 1, 2.... 2.999999 and so on)
If not looping, it's going to stick to maximum duration.

If you want it to loop, probably the best is to substract a tiny amount like you're doing right now, e.g. m_pSK->setTime(m_pSK->getDuration()-0.0001);

You could alternatively disable looping, set the duration, then enable looping again:

Code: Select all

m_pSK->setLoop( false );
m_pSK->setTime( m_pSK->getDuration() );
m_pSK->setLoop( true );
