an easy way to pause an animation of an active?

[BrashMonkey]

Hi,

Is there an easy to pause the animation of an active object? I can puase its movement since I'm using the platform movement object to control it, but how can I easily simultaniously pause the animation thats playing at the time?

thanks

Set the animation speed to 0.

I thought of that to, but would then need to keep track of the correct animation speed for all animations of all objects I want to efffect to restore the speed when I "unpause" the object, no?

It seems so far that animation/stop and start are actually pause and resume, which would be great, but I need to test some more to make sure...so far so good.

Otherwise you could store the speed in an alterable value when you pause, and then retrieve and set the speed back to the alterable value when you resume.

Should work

The actions below are exactly what you're looking for:
Animation > Stop
Animation > Start
