Multi Animators and Unwanted Animations

I have noticed lately with several mutiple animators, such as MLP beds, and some dance balls, that once you have been animate, even after you stand up when it goes to animate again, it never asks you and just animates your av.

For example in an MLP bed, you have some position that let's say puts you in the default M/f hug pose. So you do that then stand up. And someone else goes over to use the bed, and when they choose a pose, before anyone sits on a ball or anything your AV goes into the pose. Resettgin the object will stop this, but I would think there could be some kind of cleanup that undoes the permission when you stand up or stop.

I saw thsi happen with a group dance ball as well. I came in a club, chose the ball and it asked me to animate. After a while I clicked again to stop. I was having a conversation with someone because I was gettign ready to leave and go somewhere else, and apparently when it got to the change in dances routine, or I am not sure what it just arbitarily reanimated me... of course just as I was clickign the TP and I arrived dancing

Humorous but annoying. So how do I write things that do not behave like this? Obviously you can't start the initial anim without the user clicking that dialog giving permission to animate. So how to set into the state one was prior to clicking that?

This is simply sloppy programming from the creators of the objects.

For furniture, when you stand up the changed event is triggered and you should be removed from its variables to change the animations on.

When you click on the dance ball it should be removing you from its list of people to update the animation for. As a user you should be able to get around this by click on the dance ball once again and when it prompts you for permissions click No.

That seems reasonable, I will look fro that in MLP and see if I can fix it. I would have thought that it was out long enough that something liek that woudl have been shaken out of it already... Perhaps I have an older version that what is most recent.

Hi,

I was wondering if somebody did fix this problem, just found out about it with my MLP furniture.
