Animation Window Time Unit
I made an animation to a GameObject as seen below:
I want to do something in a script at the exact time when animation reaches to 0:40. I tried to use yield return new WaitForSeconds(0.4f); but it didn't work because it caused some delays. My question is:
What does 0:10 in animation window corresponds to in seconds? I don't think it's miliseconds since 1 second = 1000 miliseconds.
How many seconds do I have to wait until animation reaches to 0:40?
Hi,
simply set an animation event for your animation at the right time. It should call the corresponding function of the script attached to your animated object. Here is the tutorial:

I haven't tried this yet but I think it will solve my problem. I will let you know when I try it.
The values in the animation panel must be read as follow :
The first number indicates the seconds, rounded down
The second number indicates the frame number of the current second
Thus, "0:40" must be read as dollow : "40th frame of the first second"
Supposing you have set "60" in the "Sample" input field next to your animation name, in the Animation panel, then your animation is running at 60 frames per second. That's why you have :
"0:00", "0:10", "0:20", "0:30", "0:40", "0:50", "1:00"
Thus, you will have to wait : 40/fps seconds = 40/60 seconds ~ 0.6667 seconds
I tried it but I still observed a delay. I think it is related to how Unity manages animations and coroutines.

Time line
You can click anywhere on the Animation window time line to move the playback head to that frame, and preview or modify that frame in the Animation Clip. The numbers in the time line are shown as seconds and frames, so 1:30 means 1 second and 30 frames.
