Activate Ragdoll and Revive

[MarkusKer]

Hello,

i would like to activate the ragdoll ability of the character if the grenade explodes. I tried with the state system but had no luck.
Also it would be great if the character was hit by the grenade and the ragdoll works. he would stand up again.

Is this possible using the revive and ragdoll activity?

thanks,
markus

The Ragdoll ability should work without needing a death event but I haven't tested it. You can trigger abilities manually by calling TryStartAbility:

Abilities - Opsive

The ability system is an extremely versatile system which allows you to add new functionality to your character without having to modify the core character . . .

Revive expects a certain death animation state so it won't work so well with the ragdoll ability. This will either take a new ability or integration with an asset like PuppetMaster.
