Latest version auto-setting stepped curve

RareSloth

Hi there,

Suddenly after the update there's a stepped curve applied to our animations... This seems like a bug. Anyone else having this issue?

Thanks,
Brian

It turns out that stepped curves are now automatically applied to properties that don't change between two keys, whereas before it would be a linear curve.

So before, in animation1 if you keyed the position at time1 and then keyed the same position at time2, that curve would be linear. So if you copied the time1 key to animation2, any position keys placed after time1 in animation2 would take a linear curve. With 2.1.13 it will be stepped.

Maybe not a bug, but just need to be careful about not keying properties that don't change now

I'm not able to reproduce this.

I did the following on the root bone.

On Animation1 I created two translate keys with the same value at frame 0 and frame 10.
I then created a new animation called Animation2
On Animation2 I created two translate keys with different values at frame 0 and frame 20.
I then copied the first key from Animation1 to frame 10 on Animation2.

I ended up with a linear motion and not stepped.

Please provide exact steps if I didn't reproduce it correctly.

I was going to say on step 3, you would copy the frame 0 key from Animation1 instead of creating a new one, but I just tried it again and it's linear now. I was able to reproduce this repeatedly before, but maybe there was something else going on because it works fine now :/. Thanks for taking a look!
