I tried to convert Hardpoints creature model, but it doesn’t look good (as statue …). I’m going to have a look into other Creature Models (Zonker etc.) but I wonder if there isn’t already a nice statue I can use.
No, it doesn’t work always and is not reliable. As you can see, the petrification (OnSpawn) captures the creature exactly in it’s default position, which is not desireable.
+1: Here is something I need to learn: How to handle that situation.
Petrification animations are client-side. Server tells the client that a creature is petrified and client stops animating it. If there was no animation in progress, it freezes in the default T (well, I) pose.
This means that if a client ever forgets a creature (goes out of visual range, gets blinded, etc) even if the animation freeze was applied correctly, next time you see it it’ll revert to the T pose
