TypeError: this.timeSamplesMap[lookupTime] is undefined

[sampenland]

I'm using creature with Phaser 3 (pack version) and I get this:

TypeError: this.timeSamplesMap[lookupTime] is undefined

when the animation ends. Would setting the animation to loop fix this? How do I do that?

My animation code is:

start_animation(name, speed, fade_time)
{
if(this.creature_object.pack_renderer.activeAnimationName == name) return;

	this.creature_object.pack_renderer.blendToAnimation(name, fade_time);
	this.creature_object.speed = speed;

}

Hello,
Can you post the exact line where it failed? There are many instances of that code. If you know the line number it will be easier to trace from there and diagnose the error.

In terms of looping, there is already a isLooping flag on the pack_renderer_object. When it is true, the animation should loop.

Thanks

It happens after the animation's last frame finishes. Happens with/without 'isLooping' set to true.

CreaturePackModule.js:90:17

Hello,
Is it the timeSamplesMap or the lookupTime which is undefined here?
Because I am trying out quite a few samples using that module without error...

I forgot, my starting animation works. The player is idling correctly, it's just when changing the animation - at the end of the loop.

Here is Chrome's output:

Here is my simple class:

`

module.exports = class CreatureObject
{

    constructor(scene, x, y, scale, bin, atlas, starting_animation, start_speed)
   {
	
	this.creature_object = scene.make.CreaturePackObj({
        byte_data_in: scene.cache.binary.get(bin),
        texture_key: atlas,
        x: x,
        y: y
	});
	
    this.creature_object.scaleX = scale;
	this.creature_object.scaleY = scale;
	this.scale = scale;
	this.creature_object.pack_renderer.isLooping = true;
	this.start_animation(starting_animation, start_speed, 1);

}

start_animation(name, speed, fade_time)
{
	if(this.creature_object.pack_renderer.activeAnimationName == name) return;

	this.creature_object.pack_renderer.blendToAnimation(name, fade_time);
	this.creature_object.speed = speed;

}

flip_x(right)
{
	if(right)
	{
		this.creature_object.scaleX = this.scale;
	}
	else
	{
		this.creature_object.scaleX = -this.scale;
	}
}

}

I am still not sure why this is failing, very strange... If you call setActiveAnimation() instead does it run?

[kestrelm]

You might want to check out the basic sample here:
http://localhost:8887/Phaser3/Phaser3BasicSample.html

It too blends animations and runs without errors. It could be a useful reference for you.

setActiveAnimation() works. Thanks. I was probably doing something wrong with blendAnimation...

Thanks for your quick responses and support.
