Dancing NPC's

[LOT]

Hey fellow Facepunchers! My name is LOT and I'm trying to accomplish something :)

Basically what I'm trying to do is figure out (if possible) how to create an NPC that's always dancing in a loop. Over and over.. Forever :D

Because halloween is coming up and I want dancing skeletons to greet my players. Lel

Kinda like this >>

You mean dancing skeletons who are just dancing in front of the players?

1. Have a NPC with dancing animation.
2. Use nextbot.
3. Assuming your skeletons will be in the lobby of the players, search for a perfect place for put the dancing skeletons, ideally, in the back middle of the lobby.
4. If found, use in the console: lua_run Entity(1):GetEyeTrace().HitPos and note it somewhere
5. In the nextbot code, in ENT:Initialize(), put a self:SetPos(Vector(The vector you noted on 4.))
6. In the nextbot code, make the NPC dance using self:PlaySequenceAndWait("animation",1)
It's easy, you have just to put that in the ENT:RunBehaviour(), it should looks like this:

function ENT:RunBehaviour()
while true do
self:PlaySequenceAndWait("dancing_animation",1)
coroutine.wait(0.01)
end
end

7. You are done.
