Hey guys,
I currently work on a tank. I animate it in Xpresso. I started with a nice and simple Xpression which controls the tanks chains and gears, according to it's overall position. The Xpression for itself seems to work fine, but somethings wrong with the viewport/rendering.
If I change the tanks position with the attribute manager and hit the enter button the chains follow correctly.
If I use the arrows to move it allong the axis the chains stay just where there are, but they are rotating around the spline like they should.
If I now hit the render button for a single image it renders fine -> the chain is where it should be. But I did the Xpression to do an animation, so if I keyframe the tanks position and let cinema render the animation the chain is correctly placed in the first frame, but in the following frames it just stays where it is.
What is wrong there?
Greetings
