Walk fast

[Sonic]

i have 2 questions: 1. for example mamonth have 2 walk animations normal and fast, so how to make him to use normal animation when patroling and fast when running to a target to attack. 2. why playing or queuing the fast walk or walk animation doesnt work in trigger with event every x seconds

I don't think you can. I think a unit's animation (other then single animation things) are done on the unit itself and I don't believe it can be modified outside of it.
Feel free to experiment though. Nice test for that is to use the Castle, Townhall, Keep, etc, since that's one model.

so for what blizz?rd created walk fast? how to use it

 

[TheOverWhelm]

I'm not sure. I've never seen that animation except maybe a game a long time ago..
You might need to mess with required animation names.
But by all means, test a few things. I don't play with animation often.

Another ideas? Ok now I want just to make a unit play a walk animation when moving him every 0.03 sec

You could add the "fast" animation tag to the unit.

did this work? suddenly im interested in possibly doing something like this in my map (creating patrolling units in dungeons etc.)

 

[Sonic]

Yes it works, thanks + rep you answered my 1 qusetion, but the second still unsolved

in Object Editor, there are:

Art - Animation - Run Speed
Art - Animation - Walk Speed

when a unit has movement speed above Art - Animation - Run Speed, it will Walk Fast
and below that, it will Walk

Somehow the base action for Play Animation doesn't work for Walk animations. You need the JASS function that plays animations by index, though what its exact name is.
