How to make diagonal animations during movement!?

I will attach a screenshot of my progress. Character doesn't animate "side" walk when moving diagonally, freezes. Walks in 4 directions w animation perfectly. Can't figure out why it won't animate diagonally

Hey did you every find a resolution to this?

Rather than set the animation based on input, you'll want to set it based on the direction of movement.

I also find using an intermediate instance variable works best for setting directional animations. A variable can only ever be one value at any given tick, as opposed to worrying about different combinations of inputs.

I attached a picture of what worked for me for diagonal movement. (ignore the crossed off actions; those are what I had them to prior to figuring out the diagonal movement). Hope this helps!
