Super Basic Animation Question (Queuing Transitions Between Animations)

Attachment 25013

Hi,

I have a really basic question; I attached a super quick example to demonstrate. Let's say, i was animating a UFO. When the UFO takes off, the landing gear goes up. When it stops, the landing gear goes down. The super quick example I attached shows how i am currently making the landing gear go up (I set the animation to loop after the landing gear is up). But, how would you make it go back down?

This is a super quick example to demonstrate my problem. But, in my actual project, the movement animation is more than one frame... So, i would want to queue the "landing gear down" animation to play at a particular time (possibly at a particular frame).

Apologies for how dumb this probably is! A big community of users is a double edged sword. So much content! But, hard to find super basic answers, i think. I'm also open to any suggestions you might have for a newbie, or good tutorials.

Thanks!

Try this example, you can skip line 3 if you'd like, it's not really needed. Yet as a habit I added it as it might stop the animation bugging out from lots of keyboard presses, which in my experience can happen.
