Hi,
The ideal solution is to have cusotm action for PlayMaker and AC to work together. For the sake of learning, by all mean try to do it yourself, but when a solution exists already, you should embrace it and move on to the specific part of your game that is unique. This will save you time and frustration.
Contact the author of AC and explain your will to use it with PlayMaker, maybe he's already working on some custom action.
Bye,
Jean
