$continue

The $continue is a QC command for insert more parameters to sequences and animations after declared, by expanding it. This somehow also allow expand macros.

Tip:Place this immediately after a macro to trick the parser in thinking that you're on the same referenced $sequence or $animation.

Note:Keep in mind that you can only use it to point to a $sequence or $animation name. Otherwise StudioMDL will throw a EXCEPTION VIOLATION.

Warning:For sequence or animation macros composed of a single line or do not use braces, it's a good pratice put double-backslash at line end to avoid a "Macro expand overflow".

Syntax

 $continue <sequencename>

Examples

$definemacro SpyMeleeGestureAttackIKRelease gesturename filename activityname \\
$sequence $gesturename$ { \\
	$filename$ \\
	weightlist SpymeleeRightArmBlend \\
	subtract $gesturename$ 0 \\
	delta \\
	ikrule lhand release \\
	ikrule rhand release \\
	iklock rfoot 1 0 iklock lfoot 1 0 \\
	activity $activityname$ 1 \\
} \\
$continue $gesturename$

$definemacro SelfDeltaSequence FileName \\
$animation a_$FileName$   $FileName$ subtract a_$FileName$ 0 \\
$sequence    $FileName$ a_$FileName$ predelta \\
$continue    $FileName$ \\

// make a sequence named DLC1_Intro_Male_LeanUp with above macro, tell to lock both feets in position and set activity
$SelfDeltaSequence DLC1_Intro_Male_LeanUp {
	iklock "rfoot" 1 0
	iklock "lfoot" 1 0
	activity ACT_DLCINTRO_01 -1
}

// edit above sequence $animation, constraining it start and end
$continue a_DLC1_Intro_Male_LeanUp frames 0 269
