Suggestions how to get Transitions for Animation

Beginner Questions
#1

Hello,

in my 2D Top Down Game i have my hero controlled by moving to the “RightMouseClick”.

To make now animations for walking up/down/left/right is it possible to read any vector for the direction of the moving Character to get the right transitions for my animations ? I use the AI Path script …

How can i get the direction vector or are there any other ideas to solve this?

Hi

You can subclass the AIPath script and set the animations from there.
Something like

public class MyAI : AIPath {
	protected override void Update () {
		base.Update();

		if (Mathf.Abs(velocity.x) > Mathf.Abs(velocity.y)) {
			// Either left or right
			if (velocity.x > 0) {
				// Use 'Right' sprite
			} else {
				// Left
			}
		} else {
			// Either up or down
			if (velocity.y > 0) {
				// Up
			} else {
				// Down
			}
		}
	}
}
