Set Animator Float Damp Time does not work...[WORKS]

[Adam Z]

Does Damp Time allow the current value to change to the inputted value over time?

Right now my character runs at a 1. In my Set Animator Float I have 0.5 as my value, with Damp Time at a 1, and Every Frame checked. Every time I hit my button to execute the Action, it jumps abruptly to 0.5.  I would like to it be more gradual, and drop from 1 to .5 over 1 second. Any thoughts?  Thanks.

Hi,

 Have you checked "EveryFrame" and let the state active during the damping?

 Else, I am not sure, because this damp is a built in function provided by the Unity Api itself, so maybe you should first investigate a working sample even if in c#, and use the same Animator graph and control it with this action and compare the results. That would be how I would go about it to testify it works.

I did check every frame.

Hi,

 I would ask at this point on Unity forum and QA what is the purpose of this damping property and how to verify that it works, if we have a repro case of a clear difference between using damping and not, then we can testify that the PlayMaker action works.

Also, maybe you should simply animate it yourself? have you tried that?

Hi,

 Working on new samples for the upcoming version of PlayMaker, and I confirm that damping works on SetAnimatorFloat.

Have you had a chance to tes this further on your end?

Hi,

 So, I released a Animator Sample using damping and it works well:

check the Kyle Robot sample and how the direction Animator Parameter is damped.
