Modding Help Has the way animations work with .lua changed?

My mod no longer animates or is interactable:

Did you replace object.setInteractive with entity.setInteractive?

This is the .lua code I use to set the animation loop that plays when the object is placed and interaction:

function initializeObject()
object.setInteractive(true);
object.setAnimationState("beaconState", "active");
end

The code from the ironbeacon is now:

function init(args)
entity.setInteractive(true)
if not goodReception() then
entity.setAnimationState("beaconState", "idle")
else
entity.setAnimationState("beaconState", "active")
end

 

Thanks, this fixed it.

Now I just need to make the animation reset to the active loop. Here's my code:

function main()
if self.initialized == nil then
initializeObject();
self.initialized = true;
end
end

function initializeObject()
entity.setInteractive(true);
entity.setAnimationState("skreeState", "active");
end

function onInteraction(args)
entity.setAnimationState("skreeState", "skree");
entity.playSound("skreeSounds");
end


As you can see the object sets itself as interactive and starts the active animation when placed. When used it plays the skree state animation and skreeSounds, I need to make it reset back to the active state after the skree state has finished, but I don't know how.


Animation file:

{
"animatedParts" : {
"stateTypes" : {
"skreeState" : {
"default" : "idle",
"states" : {
"idle" : {
"frames" : 1,
"cycle" : 0.15
},
"active" : {
"frames" : 20,
"cycle" : 0.9,
"mode" : "loop"
},
"skree" : {
"frames" : 212,
"cycle" : 12
}
}
}
},

"parts" : {
"skree" : {
"properties" : {
"centered" : false
},

"partStates" : {
"skreeState" : {
"idle" : {
"properties" : {
"image" : "<partImage>:default.default"
}
},

"active" : {
"properties" : {
"image" : "<partImage>:default.<frame>"
}
},

"skree" : {
"properties" : {
"image" : "<partImage>:skree.<frame>"
}
}

}
}
}
}
}
}



Another feature I wanted to add is a speech bubble above the object that appears during the skree state with the sound.


I think i came close to this, but don't know what ? to use the in .lua:

{
"objectName" : "skree",
"rarity" : "Legendary",
"objectType" : "wire",
"description" : "Skree",
"race" : "generic",
"category" : "tools",
"printable" : "false",
"price" : "100",
"apexDescription" : "Description",
"avianDescription" : "Description",
"floranDescription" : "Description",
"glitchDescription" : "Description",
"humanDescription" : "Description",
"hylotlDescription" : "Description",

"inventoryIcon" : "skreeicon.png",
"orientations" : [
{
"dualImage" : "skree:<color>.<frame>",

"imagePosition" : [-8, 0],
"frames" : 20,
"animationCycle" : 2,

"spaceScan" : 0.1,
"anchors" : [ "bottom" ]

}
],

"animation" : "/assets/objects/wired/skree/skree.animation",
"animationParts" : {
"beacon" : "skree.png"
},
"animationPosition" : [-8, 0],

"scripts" : [ "/assets/objects/wired/skree/skree.lua" ],
"scriptDelta": 5,
"skreeSounds": [
"/assets/sfx/objects/skrees.wav"
],
"skreeDialog": {
"default": [
"Skree!"
]
}
}

The .lua code:
sayToTarget("skreeDialog", stateData.sourceId);
