Advanced AnimationTree Graph Recipes

Do NOT Load by default. Open only when implementing nested combat graphs, IK look-at beside the tree, or deep BlendTree layering after the golden path scripts fail to cover the case.

Nested StateMachines

Locomotion root StateMachine → Combat / Airborne sub-machines. Parameter paths stay relative (parameters/Locomotion/Combat/playback). Prefer nested_state_machine.gd and nested_tree_architecture.gd.

BlendTree layering checklist

  1. Lower body: BlendSpace1D/2D or locomotion StateMachine.
  2. Upper body: AnimationNodeAdd2 / Blend2 with filter mask (advanced_transition_masking.gd).
  3. Overlays: AnimationNodeOneShot (reactive_oneshot_vfx.gd).
  4. Sync groups only when clip lengths match (sync_group_layering.gd).

Skeleton IK / LookAt

Drive look-at beside the tree with LookAtModifier3D; do not fight AnimationTree bone tracks. See skeleton_ik_lookat.gd. Godot 4.7: LookAtModifier3D.relative default is false.

Root motion

Extract via AnimationTree getters, apply on CharacterBody — root_motion_animtree_sync.gd.
