SetCharacter (SetChar)

---

Description

Changes the emote and optionally the character of a character position.

Parameters

Name	Type	Description	Required	Default Value
Emote	String	The name of the emote to switch to.	✓	-
Position	String	The position of the character to set the emote of.	✗	“Center”
Character name	String	If set, replaces the character of the position.	✗	Current name of the position.
PlayPre	Boolean	Whether or not the pre-animation should be played.	✗	*
WaitForPre	Boolean	Whether or not the engine should wait for the pre-animation to finish before continuing.	✗	*

Examples:

Example #1: Load the ‘Bounce’ emote of the character currently in the ‘Center’ position.

1:  SetCharacter:["Bounce"];

Example #2: Load the ‘Deskslam’ emote of the character currently in the ‘Right’ position.

1:  SetCharacter:["Deskslam"|"Right"];

Example #3: Replacing the character of the ‘Left’ position with the character ‘Apollo’ and loading the ‘Point’ emote.

1:  SetCharacter:["Point"|"Left"|"Apollo"];

Example #4: Replacing the character of the ‘Center’ position with the character ‘Apollo’ and loading the ‘Point’ emote, but explicitely specifying the pre animation should not play.*

1:  SetCharacter:["Point"|-|"Apollo"|false|false];

Remarks:

If the specified emote doesn’t exist for the character, this instruction does nothing.

*: Not specifying the PlayPre and/or WaitForPre parameters prompts AACT to use the default values specified in the emote editor of the Asset Maker.

This instruction triggers HideTextBox.
