Enable / disable avatar mask in timeline via script

[bmangameswhat]

I’m having a hard time finding an answer to this question, so figured I’d see if anyone here can help.

I’m working on a turn-based RPG battle system and I’m using timeline for each attack. I need to be able to apply an avatar mask to the attack track selectively depending on the equipment the player has.

My problem is, I can’t figure out how via script to access the avatar mask property on the timeline track. I have it set up properly and can manually toggle it on and off, but I just need to be able to toggle it via script.

Any help could save me hours of work. Thanks.

You can get the list of animations tracks using timelineAsset.GetOutputTracks().OfType()

This was what I needed. To get the Timeline Asset from my playable director I had to cast the playable asset as a Timeline asset. In the code below, “timeline” is a reference to the playable director on the game object.

TimelineAsset tl = (TimelineAsset)timeline.playableAsset;
IEnumerable<TrackAsset> tracks = tl.GetOutputTracks();

If I was creating the timeline asset via script, I think I wouldn’t need to do this.
