Animation Problems

[Deltafee]

Hey, I am having an issues with animation, I do admit that I am a little rusty at all this now but here it goes. I made an animation called BL in my part.cfg I put:

MODULE

{

name = Enviromental Lights

useAnimationDim = true

resourceAmount = 0.04

animationName = BL

useResources = true

}

however, it doesn't seem to work, I am not sure what I am doing wrong.

"name" is what module you are using. Use ModuleAnimateGeneric for animations or ModuleLight for a powered light:

MODULE

{

name = ModuleLight

lightName = spotlight

useAnimationDim = true

lightBrightenSpeed = 2.5

lightDimSpeed = 2.5

resourceAmount = 0.04

animationName = LightAnimation

useResources = true

}

^ stock spotlight config

That's right I fixed it but it still doesn't seem to work, Basically its just an little animations.

So here's the what I did:

MODULE

{

name = ModuleAnimateGeneric

animationName = SLight

startEventGUIName = Extend

endEventGUIName = Retract

actionGUIName = FEL

}

Do you have "play automatically" on in the animation component? It should be off.

I am not sure where that option is, here's pictures of my unity project.

If you animated it in unity one of your objects, for example the parent object of your lights, will have the animation component on it when you select it. The option to turn off play automatically is in that panel.

So I turnoff play automatically and this what happens when I load into KSP and try to activate it:

I know this is an old thread but i had similar issues that were specific to animations created in Unity. the full post is here:

In one sentence: i had issues with unit 4.3.3f and downgraded to unity 4.2.0 to solve a similar issue with animation.

perhaps you could compare your KSP.log to mine in linked post for verification.
