Default animation for NPC's?

JReijmers

Hello,

I love AC, having a blast trying to figure everything out. I have a problem with two NPC's in a scene of mine. I want them to start with IDLE_L animations, but every time I test the game they start in their IDLE_U states. How can I solve this?

All the best, Joost.

Hi Ressie! Thank you so much for your quick reply. It was exactly what I was looking for. I spent some time plowing through the forum looking for an answer, but it seems I missed your topic. Thanks again!

Also I think you can change the default by selecting your NPC, opening up the Animator and you will notice that the " IDLE_U" is probably in orange (set as default). Try right clicking on  "IDLE_L" and setting it to default in the Animator.

When the scene starts, it's based on their object's initial rotation.  I'm assuming you're in Unity 2D mode, so try rotating the NPC's "Y" angle - the sprite will correct itself when the game runs.  Or, as you say, you just set everything up in an OnStart cutscene.
