Animations Problem

My problem is that I'm trying to make a character play an attack animation when you press enter. I made the condition "on ENTER key pressed" and "is global variable 'weapons selected' equal to 1" (it's for which weapon is active) the actions are "Sprit 5: set animation to "attack-stick"

When I run the layout and press enter, the character just flashes to the first frame of the of the animation for about half a second and goes back to the "idle" animation.

What kind of "controlls" you have to manage your animations?

i'm guessing here but probably when you press enter animation plays only for that time and soon when you release enter, anim goes back to idle.

Try do something like this

if (some global value) = 0 - play animation1

if (some global value) = 1 - play animation2

...

and then refer to that variable, when you want to change animation state

In event for 'idle' animation add condition 'animation "attack-stick" is NOT playng' (i.e inverted 'is playng')

This might help ?
