Bots death animation

by Howard Dortch · in Torque Game Engine · 08/11/2004 (10:07 am) · 3 replies

When I kill a bot, the machine that the server is on sees the bot dead laying on the ground, the other clients see the bot in the last animation before death, like running. Anyone know how to make the bot lay down and die on the clients?
All the other animations work fine just time of death.

There is a problem with the name "death". Try renaming the animation to "deathX" or something else.

Well I've tried everything I know to make the bot death anim show up on the client and still no go. Looks like the server calls the bot dead before it sends the animation signal to the client or something like that.

Anyone experience this? Anyone got a clue how to fix it?

I'm not very good at scripting yet but I think it's probably something like commandtoServer::AIplayerDead that is just an axample not real code so it prolly won't work.
