skeleton_attachment_set(slot, attachment);
| Argument | Description |
|---|---|
| slot | The slot name (a string) to get the attachment of. |
| attachment | The name (as a string or a sprite_index) of the attachment image. |
Returns: String
A skeletal animation sprite may have other images added as
attachments, with these images being added to a named slot (the
name is given when you create the attachment slot in your animation
program) and they will be drawn along with the animation of the
current sprite. With this function you can set an attachment to a
given slot, where you are required to give the names (as strings)
of the slot and the attachment. These names are defined by the
animation program used, or (in the case of the attachment) when you
call skeleton_attachment_create.
Note that you can also pass a sprite_index in as the
attachment, and that sprite will be used, or you can use -1 to
remove the attachment from the slot. When you pass a sprite index
in as an argument, it will create an attachment slot using the name
of the sprite as the string to name the slot (so using
spr_sword, for example, will create an attachment slot
"spr_sword"), and the slot will use the first image index (0) of
the the sprite, as well as its x and y origin offset, with a scale
of (1,1) and a rotation of 0.
IMPORTANT: Spine integration in GameMaker: Studio is a Pro licence feature and will not work in the Free/Standard versions.
if skeleton_attachment_get("slot_leftHand") ==
""
{
skeleton_attachment_set("slot_leftHand",
choose("sword", "spear", "knife"));
}
The above code would check the currently assigned attachment name for the slot named "slot_leftHand" and if an empty string is returned, a new sprite is attached.
