How do I play attack animation once

I've been looking for this answer on the forum and just can't find it.

I have a 4-direction character (up, down, left, right) and I'm controlling their animation based on the angle of motion.

However, I also need the attack, hit, etc animations the play based on the direction.

How do you trigger the animation based on direction without a wait condition?

there is a function (event) called "On Animation Finished", which will trigger an action once the current animation ends. i believe that's what you're looking for.

I gave it a try, however it doesn't allow for ongoing animations.

Right now I'm using angles to determine the animation.

If moving

• > if angle between 0 and 90
• -> set animation walk_up
• --> if attack pressed
• ---> set animation attack_up
• ----> on animation complete
• -----> set animation walk_up

[SOLVED]

I solved it but it cost me 35 events.
