Layered image if statement transition

[rivvil]

Hello. Lets say, I have a following character and an associated layered image:

Code: Select all

define char = Character('Char', image='char')
default char_hat = True

layeredimage char:
  always "char_body"

  attribute smile

  if char_hat:
    "char_hat"

And I have the following code:

Code: Select all

show char
char 'Hello. I'm taking off a hat.'
$ char_hat = False
char smile "That's it!"

I set config.say_attribute_transition to animate smile appearance and it works fine, but a hat dissappears instantly. Is there a way to dissolve it when char_hat value changes?

I think better and cleaner would be to add a nohat attribute and separate them into groups like this:

Code: Select all

layeredimage char:
    group pose:
        always "char_body"

    group mood:
        attribute smile:
            "char_smile"

    group clothes:
        attribute hat:
            "char_hat"
        attribute nohat:
            "char_nohat"

Code: Select all

show char hat
char 'Hello. I'm taking off a hat.'
char smile nohat "That's it!"

That's how I do it and it works like a charm I guess :v
