I am trying to make a script that will allow me to start dancing to a music and stop dancing whenever I would like (multiplayer compatible).
I made 2 scripts, one for the dancing action and another one which controls the "stop dancing" action
this is dance.sqf
_caller= _this select 1;
_id = _this select 2;
playmusic "song";
_caller removeAction _id;
_stopdance = _caller addaction ["Stop Dancing","stopdance.sqf"];
_caller setVariable ["dance",true];
_caller playmove "ActsPercMstpSnonWnonDnon_DancingDuoStefan";
_dance=_caller getvariable "dance";
for [{_x=1},{((_x<=42) and (_dance))},{_x=_x+1}] do
{
sleep 1;
_dance=_caller getvariable "dance";
};
_dance=_caller getvariable "dance";
if (_dance) then {
_caller playmove "ActsPercMstpSnonWnonDnon_DancingDuoIvan";
for [{_x=1},{((_x<=39) and (_dance))},{_x=_x+1}] do
{
sleep 1;
_dance=_caller getvariable "dance";
};
};
_dance=_caller getvariable "dance";
if (_dance) then {
_caller playmove "ActsPercMstpSnonWnonDnon_DancingDuoIvan";
for [{_x=1},{((_x<=39) and (_dance))},{_x=_x+1}] do
{
sleep 1;
_dance=_caller getvariable "dance";
};
};
_dance=_caller getvariable "dance";
if (_dance) then {
_caller playmove "ActsPercMstpSnonWnonDnon_DancingDuoStefan";
for [{_x=1},{((_x<=35) and (_dance))},{_x=_x+1}] do
{
sleep 1;
_dance=_caller getvariable "dance";
};
};
_dance=_caller getvariable "dance";
if (_dance) then {
_caller playmove "ActsPercMstpSnonWnonDnon_DancingDuoIvan";
for [{_x=1},{((_x<=30) and (_dance))},{_x=_x+1}] do
{
sleep 1;
_dance=_caller getvariable "dance";
};
};
playmusic ["song",206];
_caller switchmove "";
try
{
_caller removeaction _stopdance;
};
_caller addaction ["Dance","dance.sqf"];
and this is stopdance.sqf:
_caller= _this select 1;
_id = _this select 2;
_caller setVariable ["dance",false];
_caller removeaction _id;
If I push the stop dancing action or the entire dancing ends the character should return to normal status (as in standing with weapon in hand)
I have tried using this code:
_caller switchmove "";
but whenever this code executes the character returns to normal status and a dancing animation is restarted (not the entire script,just the one animation which played right before the switchmove command)
this brings me to my question:
How can I stop the character performing an animation?
