Description

Root motion refers to an animation technique where a mesh's skeleton is used to give impulse to a character. When working with 3D animations, a popular technique is for animators to use the root skeleton bone to give motion to the rest of the skeleton. This allows animating characters in a way where steps actually match the floor below. It also allows precise interaction with objects during cinematics. See alsoAnimationMixer.

Property Descriptions

NodePathanimation_path =NodePath("")🔗

• voidset_animation_path(value:NodePath)

• NodePathget_animation_path()

Path to anAnimationMixer node to use as a basis for root motion.

floatcell_size =1.0🔗

• voidset_cell_size(value:float)

• floatget_cell_size()

The grid's cell size in 3D units.

Colorcolor =Color(0.5,0.5,1,1)🔗

• voidset_color(value:Color)

• Colorget_color()

The grid's color.

floatradius =10.0🔗

• voidset_radius(value:float)

• floatget_radius()

The grid's radius in 3D units. The grid's opacity will fade gradually as the distance from the origin increases until thisradius is reached.

boolzero_y =true🔗

• voidset_zero_y(value:bool)

• boolget_zero_y()

Iftrue, the grid's points will all be on the same Y coordinate (local Y = 0). Iffalse, the points' original Y coordinate is preserved.
