i have the spell fireball on the attackRightHand ();
but i want to delay the fireball from spawning so the animation is first playing
how can i delay something

You would need to use a timer.

if you want to trigger it only at a certain point in animation you can add Events to your animations, that way you can check the currently played animation and check for EventOccured(),EventBetween or eventAfter

Yes, as Zervox mentions, this is even better.
If you're using Motion class, then you can just use Motion.eventOccurred

yes i see that in the attack animation hit-from and hit-to

i want to make a bow and arrow out of it it is shooting firebals will replace that with arrow

---

here is what i have but is not delaying. if(!attack.eventBetween(8"hit-from", 8"hit-to")) under is more of the code can someone shine some light on it

Quote:if(Ms.b(1))if(!attack.is() || Ms.bp(1))
{
if(inv.slot[SLOT_ARM_R].valid())
{
if(Contains(inv.slot[SLOT_ARM_R]->name, "Bloody Nail Bat") && inv.slot[SLOT_ARM_R]->type==ITEM_WEAPON)
attackRightHandPlayer ();
if(!attack.eventBetween(8"hit-from", 8"hit-to")) //HERE IT IS
if(mana>20)
{
Object obj_params; obj_params.base(UID(1384215308, 1338586313, 1308053163, 408650403)); obj_params.type(true, ObjType.elmID(OBJ_FIREBALL));
if(Fireball *fb=CAST(Fireball, Game.World.objCreateNear(obj_params, Matrix(0.45, skel.getSlot(8"HandR").pos))))
{

if(!attack.eventBetween(8"hit-from", 8"hit-to")) //HERE IT IS
well as you say, HERE IT IS, as in here lies your problem(atleast from what I understand that you want to do), remove the !

i thought allready that but was not sure but when i do that its not casting a fireball
at all

you can launch the project in visual studio and place breakpoint on the code inside the if statements and see if its ever executed, if it gets to the line if(mana>20) then it works and instead it is if mana which is not working properly or it is the spawn code.

does it spawn the fireball if you have the ! there?(eg checks if its not between those events).
