wrapMode not getting set...

(moved from scripting forum)

I'm getting some very odd results when trying to set the wrapMode of an animation.

Code (csharp):

1.  
2. UnitAI.gameObject.animation.wrapMode = WrapMode.Once;
3. UnitAI.gameObject.animation.Play("death_01");
4. Debug.Log(UnitAI.gameObject.animation.wrapMode);
5.  

When my code executes, the debug log line reports that wrapMode is set to clamp regardless of what mode I set the animation to just prior to playing the animation and the animation plays back in a loop in-game.

My source animation asset is also set to Once in it's wrapMode in the inspector.

Can anyone help me understand what's going on?

 

To simplify a bit, why does this:

Code (csharp):

1.  
2. gameObject.animation.wrapMode = WrapMode.Once;
3. gameObject.animation["death_01"].wrapMode = WrapMode.Once;
4.  
5. Debug.Log( gameObject.animation.wrapMode);
6. Debug.Log( gameObject.animation["death_01"].wrapMode);
7.  

always output

Code (csharp):

1.  
2. Clamp
3. UnityEngine.Debug:Log(Object)
4.  
5. Clamp
6. UnityEngine.Debug:Log(Object)
7.  

I am totally baffled. It seems to defy logic. :/

 

Are you calling this code once (from the Start function, say) or from a regular update?

 

in an update loop, but under a conditional...

Further experimenting resulted in 'clampForever' behaving as I would expect, but 'once' behaving oddly.
