RootMotionView

Remarks

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 also AnimationMixer.

Note: RootMotionView is only visible in the editor. It will be hidden automatically in the running project.

Properties

animation_path

Path to an AnimationMixer node to use as a basis for root motion.

var animation_path : NodePath = NodePath("")

Property Value

NodePath

Remarks

• void set_animation_path(NodePath value)
• NodePath get_animation_path

cell_size

The grid's cell size in 3D units.

var cell_size : float = 1.0

Property Value

float

Remarks

• void set_cell_size(float value)
• float get_cell_size

color

The grid's color.

var color : Color = Color(0.5, 0.5, 1, 1)

Property Value

Color

Remarks

• void set_color(Color value)
• Color get_color

radius

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

var radius : float = 10.0

Property Value

float

Remarks

• void set_radius(float value)
• float get_radius

zero_y

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

var zero_y : bool = true

Property Value

bool

Remarks

• void set_zero_y(bool value)
• bool get_zero_y
