[Unity 3D] Track not overriding attachment

Gisle

Im not sure if this is intended or a bug:

I have an animation running on track 0 with attachment A, the animation is 20 frames and looping
Then I have an animation on track 1 with attachment B, the animation is 1 frame and looping

Each time the first animation reaches the attachment A keyframe, the image flickers between attachment A and B.. arent the next track supposed to override this?

It used to. It doesn't anymore. The old code was terribly slow.

But Nate agrees that the overriding behavior is useful (and I guess he agrees that it's consistent with the SRT behavior), so he's still thinking about how to achieve it.

Right now, we might be able to use a more reliable or appropriate method, depending on what you're trying to do.
What are you using your Track 1 animation for?

Gisle

Track 0 is the whole body animation
Track 1 is an animation on the left arm. The character is holding something, which is why we need to change the hand attachment.

Not a big deal tho, there is probably plenty of ways to fix it, I just wanted to check if it was a bug 😉

Thanks for the quick reply

That's a good use case for it. Thanks for sharing.
Every example case clarifies how it eventually needs to work.

OP's case there was a bit of a misuse, but there are several uses that are only slightly different but make sense to rely on attachment overriding behavior on playing multiple animations.
