IKAnchor

IKAnchors are objects that can be used to control player animations. They can be used to specify the position of a specific hand, foot, or the hips of a player, and can be controlled from script to create complex animations.

Properties

Property Name	Return Type	Description	Tags
`target`	`Player`	Which Player the IKAnchor is activated on.	Read-Only
`anchorType`	`IKAnchorType`	Which socket this IKAnchor applies to.	Read-Only
`blendInTime`	`number`	The duration over which this IKAnchor is blended when it is activated.	Read-Write
`blendOutTime`	`number`	The duration over which this IKAnchor is blended when it is deactivated.	Read-Write
`weight`	`number`	The amount this IKAnchor blends with the underlying animation. A value of 0 means the animation is player unchanged, and a value of 1 means the animation is ignored and the IKAnchor is used.	Read-Write

Functions

Function Name	Return Type	Description	Tags
`Activate(Player)`	`None`	Activates the IKAnchor on the given player.	None
`Deactivate()`	`None`	Deactivates the IKAnchor from whatever player it is active on.	None
`GetAimOffset(Ability)`	`Vector3`	Returns the aim offset property.	None
`SetAimOffset(Vector3)`	`None`	Sets the aim offset of this IKAnchor.	None

Events

Event Name	Return Type	Description	Tags
`activatedEvent`	`Event`<`IKAnchor` ikAnchor, `Player` player>	Fired when this IKAnchor is activated on a player.	None
`deactivatedEvent`	`Event`<`IKAnchor` ikAnchor, `Player` player>	Fired when this IKAnchor is deactivated from a player.	None

Examples

Example using:

`Activate`

`Deactivate`

In this example, the local player is tilted forward when they run. This is done by slightly rotating a pelvis IK anchor forwards and then activating and deactivating it depending on the speed of the player.

-- Core object reference to a pelvis IK anchor
local IKAnchor = script:GetCustomProperty("IKAnchor"):WaitForObject()

-- The minimum speed the player has to be moving at for the IK anchors to be activated
local ACTIVATION_SPEED = 500

-- How many degrees forward the player will lean when running
local LEAN_ANGLE = 15

local player = Game.GetLocalPlayer()

-- Store the current activation status of the IK Anchor
local isActivated = false

-- Attach the IK Anchor object to the root joint of the player so they move together
IKAnchor:AttachToPlayer(player, "pelvis")

IKAnchor:SetRotation(Rotation.New(0, -LEAN_ANGLE, 0))

function Tick(deltaTime)
-- Deactivate the IK Anchor if the player is not grounded, not pressing the "W" key, or not moving faster than the `ACTIVATION_SPEED`
    if((not player.isWalking or not player:IsBindingPressed("ability_extra_21") or player:GetVelocity().size <= ACTIVATION_SPEED) and isActivated) then
        IKAnchor:Deactivate(player)
        isActivated = false
    -- Only activate the IK Anchor if the player is grounded, pressing the "W" key, and moving faster than the `ACTIVATION_SPEED`
    elseif (player.isWalking and not isActivated and player:IsBindingPressed("ability_extra_21") and player:GetVelocity().size > ACTIVATION_SPEED) then
        IKAnchor:Activate(player)
        isActivated = true
    end
end
