Helper/ChangeState Issue

[A!]

Hi,  been a long time 

I been trying to make a helper stick to my character kinda like JoJo characters have.  I looked at various characters that use this system but for some reason it wont work for me...

Here's the code:

(click to show/hide)

[Statedef 10000]
type = S
movetype = I
physics = S
anim = 10000
ctrl = 0
sprpriority = -1
[State 10000, ChangeAnim]
type = ChangeAnim
trigger1 = Anim != 10000 && Anim != 10005
trigger2 = Anim = 10005 && AnimTime = 0
value = 10000

[State 10000, AssertSpecial]
type = AssertSpecial
trigger1 = 1
flag = noshadow
[State 10000, Trans]
type = Trans
trigger1 = 1
trans = sub
alpha = 256,256
ignorehitpause = 1
[State 10000, BindToParent]
type = BindToParent
trigger1 = 1
pos = 4,0

[State 10000, Turn]
type = Turn
trigger1 = facing != root,facing

[State 10000, NotHitBy]
type = NotHitBy
trigger1 = 1
value = SCA
time = 1

[State 10000, ChangeAnim]
type = ChangeAnim
triggerall = anim != 10020
trigger1 = root,command = "holdfwd"
value = 10020

Thanks in advance.

P.S. Nice to see my emotes still being used

EDIT: Sorry i didn't explain what was wrong.  The animation changes to walk but does not animate, just stays a single sprite.

[State 10000, ChangeAnim]
type = ChangeAnim
trigger1 = anim != 10020 && root, anim = 20
value = 10020

[State 10000, ChangeState]
type = ChangeState
trigger1 = anim != 10000 && root, stateno != 20
value = 10000

I updated the code, so it works now.  If anyone expert think what I did is wrong, just say.

It'll work, but... you're going to be doing rather a lot of this and just like the player, it would make more sense to use changestates so the helper is in walk/crouch/jump states rather than just displaying the animation. It's tidier, as it stands you're going to be coding EVERYTHING into state 10000 which will make it rather longwinded.

Alright, i'll do that.  Thanks, you helped me back in 2010...so i'll do what ever you recommend.

Got another issue  Whenever I want the helper to attack...I can only manage to do it while making P1 go to state 200.  I wanna know how I can make the Helper attack while P1 is in state 300 instead of 200.  If you don't understand anything or require anything, just ask.

EDIT: P1 Light Punch is state 200.  Helpers Light Punch is state 10200. I want P1 to go to state 300 while helper is in state 10200.  That make sense?

ID your helper. Use

Triggerall = numhelper(Whatever ID you used) = 1
when you want 300 and

Triggerall = Numhelper(whatever ID you used) = 0
when you want 200

Oh man, It worked perfectly! Thanks man.  You remind me off FallenAngel, he was great also.
