Reality Composer problem - combining Actions doesn't work

Im a newbie to Reality Composer, currently following a Lynda.com tutorial. The issue Im having is that when i drag an action onto another action inside the same behavior, the actions fail to combine. They visually 'connect' in the UI, but when I hit play, the actions only happen one after the other.

I was able to get both actions to play by creating two behaviors, but this doesn't seem like a very scalable solution.

I also downloaded the Lynda.com tutorial files, which contain the working examples. However, the Actions behave in the same strange way - they are not combining into one.

Can anyone advise me what to do? Am I missing a setting somewhere? Should I reinstall Reality Composer?

Thank you!

Hi,

if I understand what you want to do correctly; here’s one possible thing to look at and consider when combining ‘behavior actions’.

if the Time playback value is not the same between the two behaviors you wish to combine (which always seems to work for me), you can also combine a differing time value of the second behavior - so long as it is a multiple of 2 of the one you wish to combine it with.

I use pulses and spins lot but to get differing looks in a ‘looped’ behavior I’ve made an initial behavior which plays for 44 seconds. I am able to make another behavior which plays for 22 seconds (it doesn’t matter what the behavior does) and am then able to combine both behaviors and see them execute simultaneously.

hope this helped!
