[dialogues] NPC head animations

[Tim-W]

NPC head animations do not work on both 377 and 317. When using the dialogue plugin, only a static image of the NPC head is shown.

Should this be fixed plugin-wise or in core?

[Major-]

Can you provide the code you are using?

[Tim-W]

I've not written any dialogue code, I've just used the built in tutorial island plugin together with the dialogue plugin to test tutorial island. The npc head of the runescape guide wasn't moving in the dialogue.

there is a packet which apollo does not have for interface animations

[Tim-W]

@WizardJesse1 So... perhaps we should implement the packet?

What's the opcode?

[WizardJesse1]

200 - Animate component
interfaceId - Short
animationId - Short

[Tim-W]

Shouldn't be hard to implement. Would you accept pull requests to implement this @Major- ?

[lare96]

im sure he wouldn't object to a pull req

Apollo does have this frame @WizardJesse1 @Tim-W, it's called SetWidgetModelAnimation.

The actual issue is that the emote is never set in any of the dialogues, and that the frame is not sent when the dialogue is. The dialogue code is all cobbled together and needs rewriting in an actual OO manner at some point, so this probably isn't the only issue with them.

I implemented this today, care for a PR? Just so you know, going to need CR as my Ruby is crap.
