UScript Controlled Animation Pawn
For those interested in creating pawns whose animations are controlled through UScript instead of native code, the following code will provide a base from which you can edit. It is simply the native animation source code rewritten in UScript (c++ source available in the 3186 uscript source). The following code behaves almost exactly the same as the native code (slight difference in rotation yaw, will edit once tracked down). It would probably be beneficial to performance to place the call to UpdateMovementAnimation function in the AnimEnd event as it was back in original UT. -Meowcat
[Edit 12 June 2014] Some minor code fixes/optimizations added in the select function -Meowcat
