Hi, I´m new and I dont know how to make it work. I followed the instructions above but it doesnt let me animate objects, just an arrow moving around but cannot conect it anywhere.

Also two more things, is there a way to make it work like an elevator? Stopping at each key along the way, and will only continue to the next if triggered or kept triggered?

Secondly, i think animation type 2 and 6 are identical in functionality, is there a difference?

How do you make it to where the characters move relative to the animated object they stand on?
The cart and the ship in the test level are capable of this

Hey Zed,

If you haven't already, try this:

- Spawn in the water normally
- Enlarge the water to the size you want
- Save the water object you just spawned in and resized as a prefab under a different file name.
- Open the animation parameters and edit the object to the one you just saved.

This process is what I did when I wanted to animate a larger object.

That's what I was going to do... It's just when I put in the file directory , the water isn't large enough to fill the gap... I could do a bunch of animated objects... but that seems a litte ridiculous.

If you ever update this I would love it if you could re size the object from the hotspot, or maybe even just the first frame!

Why not just lower it into the ground? Boom. Water gone.

... gyrth is it possible to resize objects? I know you can recolour them... but I was hoping to make a level filled with water and you have to drain it...
