How to make character play animation when in ragdoll

Hey @Efofe, In terms of logic, do you want the character to ragdoll first, then play the death animation? Or have the death animation slowly play and then ragdoll?
I found a pretty good thread from a while back that goes into the in-and-outs of triggering ragdoll because I’ve only ever personally used the Ragdoll preset - Trigger character ragdoll with input key event? - #18 by malosal
Maybe after ragdolling, you reset the component and then set the animation to your slow and painful death, but having that be in ragdoll physics may create some funky behaviour.
I hope this can help you!
