[SOLVED]basic FSM problem

Scripting Issues
1

Hi guys,
Nice to meet you. As you might see I’m pretty new to the engine and to the forum. I have been reading the manual for a couple of days and tried to do a basic FSM with a basic Event Handler. However, it doesn’t seem to be working,particularly it doesn’t enter the enterWalk() def.

Here’s the code: Note: I’ve left the printing statements used for debugging.

from direct.showbase.ShowBase import ShowBase
from direct.showbase import DirectObject
from direct.actor.Actor import Actor
from panda3d.core import Point3
from direct.fsm import FSM
p3dApp = ShowBase()

pandaActor = Actor("models/panda-model", {"walk": "models/panda-walk4"})
pandaActor.setScale(0.005,0.005,0.005)
pandaActor.reparentTo(render)
pandaActor.setPos(0,15,-2)


class movementFSM(FSM.FSM):
    def __init__(self,actorName):
        FSM.FSM.__init__(self,'movementFSM')
        self.actor = actorName
    
    def enterWalk(self):
        print 'Enter'
        self.actor.loop('walk')
        
    def exitWalk(self):
        #        slef.actor.stop()
        print 'Exit'
 
pF = movementFSM(pandaActor)
class myEvH(DirectObject.DirectObject):
    def __init__(self):
        self.accept('w',self.requestWalk)
    def requestWalk(self):
        print 'Accepted'
        print pF.state
        pF.request('walk')

h = myEvH()

p3dApp.run()

Can anyone see what’s the problem?

Thanks,
Norbert

Well actually the problem was super dull… :blush: I have written ‘walk’ rather than ‘Walk’ and as it’s case sensitive world it didn’t work…

Be aware of this guys and newbies like me!
