UAnimInstance::GetInstanceAssetPlayerTimeFromEnd

function Engine Blueprint Since 4.11

#include "Animation/AnimInstance.h"

Access: public Specifiers: ENGINE_APIUFUNCTIONBlueprintPure

Description

Returns the time remaining in seconds until the end of the animation asset playing in the specified asset player node. Commonly used in transition rules to trigger a transition before the animation finishes.

Caveats & Gotchas

• For looping animations, this reports time until the current loop iteration ends, not until the animation is ever 'done'. It will reset back to the full length at each loop boundary.
• Like all AnimGetters, this uses previous-frame data (double-buffered). For tight transitions triggered right at the very end of a clip, consider using a notify instead to guarantee frame-accurate triggering.
