Question by Guzaii · Sep 12, 2013 at 05:35 AM · tagkey pressedkey-frame animation

Key Press to Trigger animation when within range

Im trying to make a script that can play an Animation. Not like normal, but a GUI pops up once close to the Object (Saying "[k]" or something). And once you press the key, the animation starts playing, but only if within range of the Object. Im a little noob to this.. so i would like some help :)

Look up how to start animations.

As for the input, you've got two options. Either hardcode the keystroke in, or use the Input Manager.

 if (Input.GetKeyDown('k'))
 {
     //Begin animation
 }

It's up to you how you interface with Animations. I myself use the Legacy system.

 public class AnimationTest : MonoBehaviour
 {
     private Animation _anim;
     private bool closeEnough = false;
 
     void Start()
     {
         _anim = this.GetComponent<Animation>();
     }
 
     void Update()
     {
         if (Input.GetKeyDown("k") && closeEnough == true)
         {
             _anim.Play("ANIMATIONNAMEHERE");
         }
     }
 
     void OnGUI()
     {
         if (Vector3.Distance(targetObject.transform.position, player.transform.position) < desiredDistance)
         {
             GUI.Label(new Rect(10, 10, 200, 20), "[k]");
             closeEnough = true;
         }
     }
 }


You'll want to look up how to deal with animations in code. I myself am probably using an outdated/non normal method to do it. The logic I've provided should work well enough I'd hope.
