Play animation once then go back to idle (in background)

kloot

I'm trying to play a custom animation on an NPC once, and then make him go back to idle using a Character:Animate(PlayCustom) action. If I set it to "Wait until finish" and "Return to idle after" it does just what I want except that still I want the player to be able to move about and do stuff while the custom animation is playing (it's a long animation).

So I want to wait for it but I would like to wait for it "in the background" as it were. Any way to achieve this or something similar?

Thanks!

The ActionList itself needs to run in the background, which is a case of setting its When running field to Run In Background. See the Manual's "Background logic" chapter for more.
