Animations & Sockets

Overview

Core has built-in animations and stances that can be applied to the player's character and animated meshes. Importing animations is not supported, but custom animations can be created for the player's character by using IK Anchors.

A player's character and animated mesh can have an animation stance, which are states of movement that the mesh will continue until a new animation stance is set. They can also can have an animation that are intended to be used once (but can be looped), and then let the mesh return to the animation state (stance).

Player Animations and Animation Stances

Players can be animated using the two types of animations here, as well as through custom animations created using IK Anchors. The Animation Stance animations can be applied to players and used continuously while players are moving, and the Animation category must be associated with an Ability and activated that way.

Animated Mesh Animations and Animation Stances

AnimatedMesh objects use a different set of animations from players which vary based on the type of AnimatedMesh. See the AnimatedMesh Reference for more information.

The Design of Animations in Core

In Core, all ability animations are valid on any of the available body types. Each of the ability animations timing and/or translation values should behave identically across the body types.

All ability animations have a long "tail" that gracefully transitions the character back to idle pose. This animation tail is intended to only be seen if the player does not execute any other ability or movement. In nearly all practical use cases, the ability animation tails will be interrupted to do other game mechanics.

Note

If the intent is to have an ability "execute" as quickly as possible after the button press, it is still generally a good idea to have a very small cast phase value (0.1 second or so). This will help with minor server/client latency issues and will also help to ensure smoother playback of character animations.

Sockets

Sockets are different points on an animated and player's character mesh. They can be used for attaching objects, and controlling a ragdoll effect for the player's character.

Animation Stances

Unarmed	Description	Notes	Events	Tags
unarmed_stance	This is a set of animations that will cause the character to walk or stand with nothing being held in their hands. This set of animations includes running/strafing, walking, jumping, and idling.			player
unarmed_bind_pose	This is a single frame animation of what the character looks like in default pose. This is useful for determining default socket locations/distances and rotations. This can be very useful to register geometry when building "costumes" for characters.			player, animatedMesh
unarmed_crouch_idle_relaxed	An idle where the character is on one knee, low to the ground for Animated Mesh Humanoids. For Players, crouches are handled as a mechanic which is determined by the Player Settings Object.			animatedMesh
unarmed_crouch_run_forward	A stooping run animation that is low to the ground for Animated Mesh Humanoids. For Players, crouches are handled as a mechanic which is determined by the Player Settings Object.		rightFootstep, leftFootstep	animatedMesh
unarmed_browse_virtual_interface	A looping animation that features the player looking at a virtual interface and swiping down at 1 second and swiping right at 4 seconds. There are lua animation events for these moments which return the string "action." There is also a corresponding vfx asset in the core catalog which has swiping behavior which can be used with this animation.		action	player
unarmed_carry_object_heavy	A one (right) handed carry animation with the arm at waist height. Ideal for holding a mug, potion, etc. When running/jumping, the right arm will retain the lifted arm pose. The left arm will inherit the animation underneath. This animation assumes the prop is attached to the right_prop socket.			player
unarmed_carry_object_high	A one (right) handed carry animation with the arm raised to roughly eye level. Ideal for holding a torch up to see better, etc. When running/jumping, the right arm will retain the lifted arm pose. The left arm will inherit the animation underneath. This animation assumes the prop is attached to the right_prop socket.			player
unarmed_carry_object_low	A one (right) handed carry animation with the arm at waist height. Ideal for holding a mug, potion, etc. When running/jumping, the right arm will retain the lifted arm pose. The left arm will inherit the animation underneath. This animation assumes the prop is attached to the right_prop socket.			player
unarmed_carry_score_card	A two handed carry animation with the arms all the way extended above the head. Ideal for holding text signs, etc. When running/jumping etc., the entire upper body will retain this pose. The attachment point for the card is the right prop, and it registers to the center of the bottom edge of the card/sign. It also assumes x forward.			player
unarmed_dance_basic	A simple basic dance loop.			player, animatedMesh

unarmed_dance_twist	A loop of the traditional dance which features twisting hips.		leftFootstep, rightFootstep	animatedMesh
unarmed_death	A full body animation of the character falling to the floor, face-up. The hips will end roughly on the spot where the game thinks the character is. Can be used with or without ragdoll. If there is no ragdoll physics applied at all, some of the limbs may appear to float in the dead pose if the ground is not level where the player uses this animation. For Animated Mesh Humanoid Rigs, Death animations are a PlayAnimation. Please refer to that section on this page.			player, animatedMesh
unarmed_death_spin	A full body animation that spins 360 and then falls to the floor, face-up. The hips will end roughly on the spot where the game thinks the character is.
