Why am I struggling with Interpolate here?

DrGlickert

I have an actor that has a Rule that looks like this:

When game.attribute = 1, interpolate self.color to 0 over .5 seconds. in the OTHERWISE section I have another rule that When game.attribute = 0 interpolate self.color to 1 over .5 seconds.

This should give me a fading in/fading out effect. However, it doesn't work. Why does this not work?

Meaning, it fades out okay. But it doesn't fade back in correctly.

did you select ease in on the second interpolate?

Also you dont have to have the second interpolate in a rule when game attribute=0. Having it in the otherwise section will do that for you, cause whenever the attribute is not 1 ( mening 0) it will do the behavior. No need for the extra rule.

DrGlickert

Wait. It works. I had code wrong. I suck at this right now.

You said in the otherwise section you have another rule for when game.attribute=0. Could you just have the interpolate in it's own rule instead of in otherwise? Sometimes individual rules trigger when otherwise doesn't.
