AnimationPlayer
===============

**Inherits:** :ref:`AnimationMixer<class_AnimationMixer>` **<** :ref:`Node<class_Node>` **<** :ref:`Object<class_Object>`

A node used for animation playback.

.. rst-class:: classref-introduction-group

Description
-----------

An animation player is used for general-purpose playback of animations. It contains a dictionary of :ref:`AnimationLibrary<class_AnimationLibrary>` resources and custom blend times between animation transitions.

Some methods and properties use a single key to reference an animation directly. These keys are formatted as the key for the library, followed by a forward slash, then the key for the animation within the library, for example ``"movement/run"``. If the library's key is an empty string (known as the default library), the forward slash is omitted, being the same key used by the library.

\ **AnimationPlayer** is better-suited than :ref:`Tween<class_Tween>` for more complex animations, for example ones with non-trivial timings. It can also be used over :ref:`Tween<class_Tween>` if the animation track editor is more convenient than doing it in code.

Updating the target properties of animations occurs at the process frame.

If ``true`` and the engine is running in Movie Maker mode (see :ref:`MovieWriter<class_MovieWriter>`), exits the engine with :ref:`SceneTree.quit()<class_SceneTree_method_quit>` as soon as an animation is done playing in this **AnimationPlayer**. A message is printed when the engine quits for this reason.

\ **Note:** This obeys the same logic as the :ref:`AnimationMixer.animation_finished<class_AnimationMixer_signal_animation_finished>` signal, so it will not quit the engine if the animation is set to be looping.

.. rst-class:: classref-item-separator

----

.. _class_AnimationPlayer_method_pause:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

|void| **pause**\ (\ ) :ref:`🔗<class_AnimationPlayer_method_pause>`

Pauses the currently playing animation. The :ref:`current_animation_position<class_AnimationPlayer_property_current_animation_position>` will be kept and calling :ref:`play()<class_AnimationPlayer_method_play>` or :ref:`play_backwards()<class_AnimationPlayer_method_play_backwards>` without arguments or with the same animation name as :ref:`assigned_animation<class_AnimationPlayer_property_assigned_animation>` will resume the animation.

Plays the animation with key ``name``. Custom blend times and speed can be set.

The ``from_end`` option only affects when switching to a new animation track, or if the same track but at the start or end. It does not affect resuming playback that was paused in the middle of an animation. If ``custom_speed`` is negative and ``from_end`` is ``true``, the animation will play backwards (which is equivalent to calling :ref:`play_backwards()<class_AnimationPlayer_method_play_backwards>`).

The **AnimationPlayer** keeps track of its current or last played animation with :ref:`assigned_animation<class_AnimationPlayer_property_assigned_animation>`. If this method is called with that same animation ``name``, or with no ``name`` parameter, the assigned animation will resume playing if it was paused.

\ **Note:** The animation will be updated the next time the **AnimationPlayer** is processed. If other variables are updated at the same time this is called, they may be updated too early. To perform the update immediately, call ``advance(0)``.

Plays the animation with key ``name`` and the section starting from ``start_time`` and ending on ``end_time``. See also :ref:`play()<class_AnimationPlayer_method_play>`.

Setting ``start_time`` to a value outside the range of the animation means the start of the animation will be used instead, and setting ``end_time`` to a value outside the range of the animation means the end of the animation will be used instead. ``start_time`` cannot be equal to ``end_time``.

|void| **play_with_capture**\ (\ name\: :ref:`StringName<class_StringName>` = &"", duration\: :ref:`float<class_float>` = -1.0, custom_blend\: :ref:`float<class_float>` = -1, custom_speed\: :ref:`float<class_float>` = 1.0, from_end\: :ref:`bool<class_bool>` = false, trans_type\: :ref:`TransitionType<enum_Tween_TransitionType>` = 0, ease_type\: :ref:`EaseType<enum_Tween_EaseType>` = 0\ ) :ref:`🔗<class_AnimationPlayer_method_play_with_capture>`

See also :ref:`AnimationMixer.capture()<class_AnimationMixer_method_capture>`.

You can use this method to use more detailed options for capture than those performed by :ref:`playback_auto_capture<class_AnimationPlayer_property_playback_auto_capture>`. When :ref:`playback_auto_capture<class_AnimationPlayer_property_playback_auto_capture>` is ``false``, this method is almost the same as the following:

::

    capture(name, duration, trans_type, ease_type)
    play(name, custom_blend, custom_speed, from_end)

If ``name`` is blank, it specifies :ref:`assigned_animation<class_AnimationPlayer_property_assigned_animation>`.

If ``duration`` is a negative value, the duration is set to the interval between the current position and the first key, when ``from_end`` is ``true``, uses the interval between the current position and the last key instead.

\ **Note:** The ``duration`` takes :ref:`speed_scale<class_AnimationPlayer_property_speed_scale>` into account, but ``custom_speed`` does not, because the capture cache is interpolated with the blend result and the result may contain multiple animations.

.. _class_AnimationPlayer_method_queue:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

|void| **queue**\ (\ name\: :ref:`StringName<class_StringName>`\ ) :ref:`🔗<class_AnimationPlayer_method_queue>`

Queues an animation for playback once the current animation and all previously queued animations are done.

\ **Note:** If a looped animation is currently playing, the queued animation will never play unless the looped animation is stopped somehow.

.. rst-class:: classref-item-separator

----

.. _class_AnimationPlayer_method_reset_section:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

|void| **reset_section**\ (\ ) :ref:`🔗<class_AnimationPlayer_method_reset_section>`

Resets the current section. Does nothing if a section has not been set.

.. rst-class:: classref-item-separator

----

.. _class_AnimationPlayer_method_seek:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

|void| **seek**\ (\ seconds\: :ref:`float<class_float>`, update\: :ref:`bool<class_bool>` = false, update_only\: :ref:`bool<class_bool>` = false\ ) :ref:`🔗<class_AnimationPlayer_method_seek>`

Seeks the animation to the ``seconds`` point in time (in seconds). If ``update`` is ``true``, the animation updates too, otherwise it updates at process time. Events between the current frame and ``seconds`` are skipped.

If ``update_only`` is ``true``, the method / audio / animation playback tracks will not be processed.

\ **Note:** Seeking to the end of the animation doesn't emit :ref:`AnimationMixer.animation_finished<class_AnimationMixer_signal_animation_finished>`. If you want to skip animation and emit the signal, use :ref:`AnimationMixer.advance()<class_AnimationMixer_method_advance>`.

.. _class_AnimationPlayer_method_set_blend_time:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

|void| **set_blend_time**\ (\ animation_from\: :ref:`StringName<class_StringName>`, animation_to\: :ref:`StringName<class_StringName>`, sec\: :ref:`float<class_float>`\ ) :ref:`🔗<class_AnimationPlayer_method_set_blend_time>`

Specifies a blend time (in seconds) between two animations, referenced by their keys.

.. _class_AnimationPlayer_method_set_method_call_mode:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

|void| **set_method_call_mode**\ (\ mode\: :ref:`AnimationMethodCallMode<enum_AnimationPlayer_AnimationMethodCallMode>`\ ) :ref:`🔗<class_AnimationPlayer_method_set_method_call_mode>`

**Deprecated:** Use :ref:`AnimationMixer.callback_mode_method<class_AnimationMixer_property_callback_mode_method>` instead.

Sets the call mode used for "Call Method" tracks.

.. rst-class:: classref-item-separator

----

.. _class_AnimationPlayer_method_set_process_callback:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

|void| **set_process_callback**\ (\ mode\: :ref:`AnimationProcessCallback<enum_AnimationPlayer_AnimationProcessCallback>`\ ) :ref:`🔗<class_AnimationPlayer_method_set_process_callback>`

**Deprecated:** Use :ref:`AnimationMixer.callback_mode_process<class_AnimationMixer_property_callback_mode_process>` instead.

Sets the process notification in which to update animations.

.. _class_AnimationPlayer_method_set_root:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

|void| **set_root**\ (\ path\: :ref:`NodePath<class_NodePath>`\ ) :ref:`🔗<class_AnimationPlayer_method_set_root>`

**Deprecated:** Use :ref:`AnimationMixer.root_node<class_AnimationMixer_property_root_node>` instead.

Sets the node which node path references will travel from.

.. _class_AnimationPlayer_method_set_section:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

|void| **set_section**\ (\ start_time\: :ref:`float<class_float>` = -1, end_time\: :ref:`float<class_float>` = -1\ ) :ref:`🔗<class_AnimationPlayer_method_set_section>`

Changes the start and end times of the section being played. The current playback position will be clamped within the new section. See also :ref:`play_section()<class_AnimationPlayer_method_play_section>`.

.. rst-class:: classref-item-separator

----

.. _class_AnimationPlayer_method_set_section_with_markers:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

|void| **set_section_with_markers**\ (\ start_marker\: :ref:`StringName<class_StringName>` = &"", end_marker\: :ref:`StringName<class_StringName>` = &""\ ) :ref:`🔗<class_AnimationPlayer_method_set_section_with_markers>`

Changes the start and end markers of the section being played. The current playback position will be clamped within the new section. See also :ref:`play_section_with_markers()<class_AnimationPlayer_method_play_section_with_markers>`.

If the argument is empty, the section uses the beginning or end of the animation. If both are empty, it means that the section is not set.

.. rst-class:: classref-item-separator

----

.. _class_AnimationPlayer_method_stop:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

|void| **stop**\ (\ keep_state\: :ref:`bool<class_bool>` = false\ ) :ref:`🔗<class_AnimationPlayer_method_stop>`

Stops the currently playing animation. The animation position is reset to ``0`` and the ``custom_speed`` is reset to ``1.0``. See also :ref:`pause()<class_AnimationPlayer_method_pause>`.

If ``keep_state`` is ``true``, the animation state is not updated visually.

\ **Note:** The method / audio / animation playback tracks will not be processed by this method.
