Snipe Animation Difficulty

[Setharoth114]

So, I'm having trouble in my map. I have a custom unit duplicated via Nova, and I'm having trouble with the snipe animation. I issue my unit an order for Nova - Snipe. She loses energy, does damage and all that just fine, but she doesn't do the animation. The sound goes off, the bullet streak appears, but she won't do the kneel down and shoot thing. Help pwease

The animations and most of the visual stuff you see is controlled by the actor. When you duplicated your unit you might've broken some actors. I assume your custom unit has an actor(or it wouldn't be visible in-game). Check Nova's actor in the Event: Events field and see if you can find some events related to snipe. Then check if your custom actor has those snipe related actor events.

For a more detailed explanation on actor events, read this tutorial.
