Godot 4.0
Hi, I am trying to move my characters in game according to the distance they take in a step in their animation. I’ve been searching online on how to do that but can’t find much. Any clue of how to achieve it will be much appreciated. Thanks in advance
I believe what you’re looking to create is animation-driven movement. The primary method that is used to achieve this is called root motion.
In short, this method uses the motion of the animation’s root bone to drive the object’s motion in 3D space.
Here is the section for root motion in Godot Docs.
