Spawning and animation

Megaemman

Im creating a baseball game and I'm having trouble syncing the actor that spawns the balls with the animation of the pitcher

Heres what i have for the spawning actor I have it to every so and so seconds the actor will spawn a random actor https://www.dropbox.com/s/22qh92nh5oy20fw/Screenshot 2015-07-11 01.48.01.png?dl=0

However the issue is that it won't sync with my animation I've tried timers and it still doesn't work quite right. should i use a boolean to trigger the animation?

Thanks for the help in advanced

I can't really answer your question as it's hard to know exactly what 'won't sync' and 'doesn't work quite right' mean . . . but on a side note, looking at your code, you don't really need both those timers . . . the change attribute behaviour (random toss to (1,3)) could be moved into the second timer like this (screenshot below) . . .

What i want to do is the type of animation thats in the street fighter template

Except instead of having my animation actor throw punches i would like look like it is throwing baseballs.

Ive tried this code for the ball spawner https://www.dropbox.com/s/jlvklilwkh37jbk/Screenshot 2015-07-11 08.39.52.png?dl=0

and this is in my animation actor

But when it comes to following this code the animation actor it never quite syncs right and I'm thinking it has to do with how i wrote this code maybe the timings off?

Again thanks for your time
