Motion Path Loop
Hi,
I want an object to travel on a motion path in a loop. Over and over and over... any idea how that can be done?
Cheers, Niels

In general:
Move object 1 on motion path X when you want the first path to begin
Move object 2 on motion path y when motion path x ends
Move object 3 on motion path z when motion path y ends
Start fire Flickering when motion path z ends
In your case, (assuming you want to allow initiating the motion paths in random order), You need this trigger for each of the 3 groups:
Then you need another trigger like this for each group;'
Be sure each group has a trigger to set its variable true and that the variable is set to true when the learner clicks, not when the motion path ends.

Hi,
Can someone please help me to understand what kind of trigger I should use if I want my fire flickering to start when 3 motion paths have been completed?
Attached is my file.
Thank you in advance!

I had to stretch the timeline a lot, it stopped looping when it reached the 5 seconds mark.

Try this. I used the default trigger to initiate the loop, but you can change the "When ..." part of the first trigger to anything you want.
Glad that Michael was able to assist you here Erin :)

It's always the simplest things! Thank you!

See attached. I set the Path Options > Direction parameter to None, so that there is no Easing In or Out applied to the motion path.
