I created an animation gate. When destroyed console, the gate opens.
Question: how to make that when I fix the console, the gate closes?

Please explain in detail how to make it work.
Here is my lua script:

Hidden/Spoiler:

function ScriptPostLoad()

animateobja = OnObjectKill(

   function(object, killer)

      if GetEntityName(object) == "gatelock" then

         PlayAnimation("open")

         RewindAnimation("open")

      end

   end

)

repairobja = OnObjectRepair(

   function(object, repairer/characterId?!)

      if GetEntityName(object) == "gatelock" then

         RespawnObject("gatelock")

         RewindAnimation("open")

      end

   end

)

I have created only one animation - opening the gate.
Please help!

RewindAnimation doesn't actually play the animation you specify backwards. All it does is instantaneously return the animated object to the first frame of the animation. What you want to do is create a second animation called, say, closed. This animation would have the same frames as the "open" animation, but with the frames in reversed order. Then use PlayAnimation("closed") instead of RewindAnimation("open").

I did as you said. But the animation does not occur.
Here is my lua:

Hidden/Spoiler:

function ScriptPostLoad()

animateobja = OnObjectKill(

   function(object, killer)

      if GetEntityName(object) == "gatepanel" then

         PlayAnimation("open")

      end

   end

)

repairobja = OnObjectRepair(

   function(object, repairer)

      if GetEntityName(object) == "gatepanel" then

         PlayAnimation("closed")

      end

   end

)

Perhaps this is the wrong lua code?I replaced the animation "closed" in the code to "objectkill" and the animation is playing.

Try replacing repairer with actor. If that doesn't work, I don't have any other ideas.

Use this instead:

Code: Select all

OnObjectRespawn(
      function (object)
            if GetEntityName(object) == "gatepanel" then
                  PlayAnimation("closed")
            end   
      end
)

Animation work: "open" and "closed", but only once. What to do?

I break the panel - the gate is opening.
I repair the panel - the gates closes.
I break the panel - nothing happens ...

AQT mentioned what you need in the second post.
Add RewindAnimation("NAME") before PlayAnimation("NAME").

Works only animation "closed." I added the same line in the animation "open", but it does not work.

My lua:

Hidden/Spoiler:

animateobja = OnObjectKill(

   function(object, killer)

      if GetEntityName(object) == "gatepanel" then

         RewindAnimation ("open")

         PlayAnimation("open")

      end

   end

)

OnObjectRespawn(

      function (object)

            if GetEntityName(object) == "gatepanel" then

                  RewindAnimation ("closed")

                  PlayAnimation("closed")

            end   

      end

)

EDIT
Please reply!
No matter what I did, animations do not work.

Double posting is against the RULES; please EDIT your post instead -Staff

Your problem is that your animations don't play a second time, right?
Vanilla scripts often use PauseAnimation before rewinding them, maybe that helps:

PauseAnimation("NAME")
RewindAnimation("NAME")
PlayAnimation("NAME")

Also, make sure there is no space between RewindAnimation and the opening bracket.

You'll excuse me, I'm an idiot. It does not work. I even combine these lines, but nothing else.
The same thing happens.

The bridge on Mustafar and the gate on Kashyyyk would be 2 stock examples you can use as a template.
