Convert animation_player.animation_finished.connect() to C#

KiwiCaveGremlin

Heya!

So, theres a particular piece of code that I have functioning perfectly well in GD script, but for a couple reasons I'm converting this section to C# within my project

Everything apart from the above appears to be working just fine. The GD script components are as follows

@onready var animationPlayer : AnimationPlayer = AnimationPlayer

   func _ready():
         animationPlayer.animation_finished.connect(_on_animation_finished)


    func _on_animation_finished(anim_name):
          if anim_name == "Turn1":
	         TurnFunc(1)
          if anim_name == "Turn2":
	        TurnFunc(2)
         CleanUp()

I'm struggling to find how to best convert this. Using Signals I can reference "AnimationPlayer.AnimationFinished" and make a function in reference to it, but it doesn't seem to work right, nor can I access the anim_name so I can determine which animation has finished. Is there a better way to go about this?

KiwiCaveGremlin Afaik, the recommended way to handle signals in C# is via C# events. Look at the docs here:

Aha! I have discovered my issue. Signals was the approach I was using but for the life of me I couldn't figure out what the problem was, and I'm rather embarrassed to admit it was very simple! Sadly simply an issue of poor casing resulting in "stringName" instead of "StringName". Safe to say I'm a little red in the cheeks but these things happen!

For anyone in future who wishes to hook code up in C# using Godot's Animation Player Animation Ending event, here you go! (The following all within your class...)

private AnimationPlayer animPlayer;



public override void _Ready()
{
   animPlayer.AnimationFinished += (StringName animName) => 
   {
   // Your logic here! You can use the "animName" variable now to fetch the name of the animation that 
   // has just finished, using if statements or what have you for your desired effects 
   }
}

I'm kinda glad my issue ended up being something so easy to fix, if somewhat embarrassing I didn't notice after pouring over this for two days haha. Thanks XYZ for looking it over!
