Summary - Animation

Reinforce animation usage with a summary task.

Putting the Animation System Together

In Unity's animation system, Animation Clips store animation data, while Animator Controllers manage states and transitions. Parameters define transition conditions. C# code controls the animation system by changing these parameters through methods such as SetTrigger(), SetBool(), and SetFloat().

// Clip → State
// State → Transition
// Parameter → Condition
// C# → Animator

Exercise Manage Character Animations Together

Manage the character's damage and movement animations through an Animator component. Activate the takeDamage Trigger parameter in SetDamage. Pass the received speed to the moveSpeed Float parameter in SetMovement. Create parameters with these names in the Animator Controller.

Show example solution

using UnityEngine;

public class AnimationManager : MonoBehaviour
{
    public Animator animator;

    public void SetDamage()
    {
        animator.SetTrigger("takeDamage");
    }

    public void SetMovement(float speed)
    {
        animator.SetFloat("moveSpeed", speed);
    }
}

Test yourself

Which approach is suitable for making a character enter a damage animation when it takes damage?
- Delete the Animation Clip file
- Close the Curve view
- Rename the GameObject
- Create a Trigger parameter in the Animator and activate it from code
Show answer

Create a Trigger parameter in the Animator and activate it from code — A Trigger parameter can be activated from code to start the transition to a damage animation.
