Unity - LoopStart at runtime.

cloudcamaleoniv

So, there is some animations that requires some kind of transition frames to get to a loop, for example:

Ryu puts his hands back to charge a powerful Hadouken, than he starts flickering his hands (in a loop) while powering. The powering loop may stays longer or shorter depending on a variable.

So, this "put his hands back" is the transition part. And the "hands flickering" is the loop. And all of these frames are part of a single looping animation ("charging")

Can I specify a LoopStart within a script? So when I play the "charging" clip and the animation ends, it goes to the LoopStart frame instead of the first?

Yeah, I could create two animations - the "startCharge" and the "charging", and play the desired one at different occasions, but is there a way to do this as I stated?

Thanks.

You could use events to mark the end of the loop, and put the start of the loop as the float field of that event.

You'd have to interpret that event yourself in code and tell AnimationState to go back to the time specified as the start of the loop. I mean, Spine doesn't do what you just described out of the box.

But I imagine it also wouldn't be too difficult to implement.
