Problem with playThread setActionThread on a player object

Hi everybody,
Here i have another problem, I hope somebody has solved this one.
I have an AIPlayer object. When I requesto the player to move from one place to other, the player runs fine. Then I request it to salute but hold the position like:
%gameunit.setActionThread("celsalute", true);
The unit salutes and then stands in the last frame. But after that if I request the unit to move to other position, the run animation just wont run, the animation is stuck in the last frame of the celsalute animation.
I dont know if anybody has found this before. Id appreciate any hint on this one.
Luck!

Is "celsalute" a blended animation?

Do you not have to reset the root animation after something like this? 
#4
%player.setActionThread("stance", true);
and then:
%player.setActionThread("root");
but the player is still hold the stance animation.
Are there any special request to the DSQ?
Thanks for your help!

Its not a blended animation and no cycle.I first use:%player.setActionThread("stance", true);
and then:
%player.setActionThread("root");
but the player is still hold the stance animation.
Are there any special request to the DSQ?
Thanks for your help!

A quick glance at what you just posted and one has "true" and one doesn't. Who knows, maybe it's that simple, try it.

Thanks for your reply.unfortunately it doesn't work too. Otherwise,I don't want the player hold the root animation, so I can't set true.

%player.setActionThread("celsalute", true);
Then before you initiate the walk again, try something like this...
%player.setActionThread("pain"); (or whatever anim you feel like trying)

Try resetting the anim before you wish to move by firing another animation first?%player.setActionThread("celsalute", true);
Then before you initiate the walk again, try something like this...
%player.setActionThread("pain"); (or whatever anim you feel like trying)

I have resolve the problem now. I find that I must use schedule function to wait for a little time until the animation done, and then I can use setActionThread function to change the animation.
