What's a good way to do multiple Idle animations?

Questions & Answers

I’m trying to figure out a good way to have it so my player while standing around doing nothing but his idle animation after a few minutes or seconds will perform another idle animation.
Maybe even have 3 different animations that will play after each other if the player is idle for a long time.
What’s the best way to approach this?

Here’s an idea: (Warning: Untested code)

var timeForIdle : float = 5f;
var idleTimer : float;
var playIdle : boolean;

funciton Start()
{
    idleTimer = timeForIdle;
}

function Update()
{
    if(noInteractions && !playIdle)
    {
        // Frame rate dependent
        idleTimer -= Time.deltaTime;

        if(idleTimer <= 0)
        {
            idleTimer = 0;
            playIdle = true;
            PlayIdleAnimations();
        }
    }
    else if(!noInteractions)
    {
        idleTimer = timeForIdle;
        playIdle = false;
    }
}

function PlayIdleAnimations()
{
    if(!playIdle)
       return;

    animation.CrossFade("idle1");

    yield WaitForSeconds(animation["idle1"].time);

    animation.CrossFade("idle2");

    yield WaitForSeconds(animation["idle2"].time);

    animation.CrossFade("idle3");

    yield WaitForSeconds(animation["idle3"].time);
}

No definition for noInteractions ???
C# Version:

float timeForIdle = 5f;
float idleTimer;
bool playIdle;
 
void Start()
{
    idleTimer = timeForIdle;
}
 
void Update()
{
    if(noInteractions && !playIdle)
    {
        // Frame rate dependent
        idleTimer -= Time.deltaTime;
 
        if(idleTimer <= 0)
        {
            idleTimer = 0;
            playIdle = true;
            PlayIdleAnimations();
        }
    }
    else if(!noInteractions)
    {
        idleTimer = timeForIdle;
        playIdle = false;
    }
}
 
void PlayIdleAnimations()
{
    if(!playIdle)
       return;
 
    animation.CrossFade("idle1");
 
    yield return WaitForSeconds(animation["idle1"].time);
 
    animation.CrossFade("idle2");
 
    yield return WaitForSeconds(animation["idle2"].time);
 
    animation.CrossFade("idle3");
 
    yield return WaitForSeconds(animation["idle3"].time);
}
