You can write your topic however you want, but you need to answer these questions:
-
What do you want to achieve? Keep it simple and clear!
I’m making an animation for the end of the chase in my indie horror game. -
What is the issue? Include screenshots / videos if possible!
All of the prints are firing, but for some reason, the animation isn’t playing.
Output:
Server: Player superman978705 triggered ChasePhaseTwo - Server - PhaseTwoStarter:16
16:19:02.944 Server: Fired DisableEvent for superman978705 - Server - PhaseTwoStarter:20
16:19:02.944 Server: Fired ChasePhaseTwo event for all clients - Server - PhaseTwoStarter:22
16:19:03.299 Client: Received ChasePhaseTwo event - Client - PhaseTwoHandler:61
16:19:03.300 Client: Player character found - Client - PhaseTwoHandler:69
16:19:09.459 Server: Cutscene wait complete, teleporting player - Server - PhaseTwoStarter:26
16:19:09.460 Server: Teleported superman978705 to EndChaseTeleportPosition - Server - PhaseTwoStarter:32
16:19:09.460 Server: Fired EnableEvent for superman978705 - Server - PhaseTwoStarter:39
Then it still does teleport me.

Please do not ask people to write entire scripts or design entire systems for you. If you can’t answer the three questions above, you should probably pick a different category.
