Im trying to get it so when you press Mouse0 (primary mouse button) it will play an animation called "punch"

Im kind of a "noob" at java but here is what I got:

@script RequireComponent(CharacterController)

    public var punchAnimation : AnimationClip;

if(!punchAnimation) {

    _animation = null;

    Debug.Log("No animations, turning them off");

}

if(_animation) {

        if(Input.GetKey (KeyCode.Mouse0)) {

            animation.Play("punchAnimation"); 

        }

}

Please help!!

If you want the animation to finish you could try checking your mecanim settings for that particular animation and check ‘has exit time’. If that’s not then issue then it should be in this segment you posted:

`if(!punchAnimation) {

_animation = null;

Debug.Log(“No animations, turning them off”);`

If I’m reading it correctly it’s saying if the condition is not met (mouse has gone up) then animation = null (stopping the animation perhaps?). Hopefully this helps you track the source of the issue so it can be resolved. Cheers.
