avatar animations

Hi,

The problem is that you are calling node.remove(). This function will immediately delete the object. In this example you need to create an action that will remove the node. Use the following code instead:

fadeReset = vizact.sequence(vizact.waittime(5),vizact.call(node.remove))

The vizact.call action will simply call the function that you pass to it.

I think it's working out but I do get some traceback errors. Here is the code:

def onmousedown(button):
	global i
	if button == viz.MOUSEBUTTON_LEFT:
		node = viz.pick() #Get object that was clicked
		if node in avatars: #Check if object is one of the avatars
			node.clear(viz.ALL)
			node.clear(viz.CURRENT_ACTION)
			node.execute(7) #Execute the "shot" animation
			#Create action to wait for the animation duration then freeeze the avatar
			WaitThenFreeze = vizact.sequence( vizact.waittime(node.getduration(7)-.14), vizact.speed_node(0))
			#vizact.sequence(vizact.waittime(2),avatars.remove(male),1)			
			node.clear(viz.ALL)
			node.clear(viz.CURRENT_ACTION)
			node.add(WaitThenFreeze) #Add the action to the avatar
			node.clear(viz.ALL)
			node.clear(viz.CURRENT_ACTION)
			fadeReset = vizact.sequence(vizact.waittime(1),vizact.call(node.remove))
			node.add(fadeReset)
		i = 2;

Here are the traceback errors. I'm not sure what they all mean.

Traceback (most recent call last):

Hi,

Try the following instead:

node.add(vizact.waittime(1))
node.add(vizact.call(node.remove))
