Sequence Runtime Binding 2024-05-16 17:55:58 ⭐

前言

MovieSceneTextTrack 引擎插件可以作为参考。 UMovieSceneCVarTrackInstance

参考：

  1. sequencer mute tracks at runtime from c
  2. 其他参考
    1. [Actor Rebinding in Blueprints with Sequencer(官方文档)]https://docs.unrealengine.com/4.27/en-US/AnimatingObjects/Sequencer/HowTo/AnimateDynamicObjects/
    2. Level Sequence actor rebinding in C++

可行思路：

  1. 给导播创建一个快捷键（Hotkey），之后在触发根据Tag切换对应角色动画蓝图中的逻辑。
  2. 使用Sequence的EventTrack设置若干事件。
  3. 模改UMovieSceneSkeletalAnimationTrack，实现一个可以自动根据Tag捕获对应角色并且播发动画的功能。

方案一

  • UMovieSceneTrack::SetEvalDisabled(bool)
  • ULevelSequence::MarkAsChanged()
  • MovieSceneCompiledDataManager::GetPrecompiledData()->Compile(ULevelSequence*)
// You first have to set the unwanted track as disabled via 
void YourDisableTrackFunction(UMovieSceneTrack* MovieSceneTrack, bool Value)
{
	if (MovieSceneTrack)
	{
		MovieSceneTrack->SetEvalDisabled(Value);
	}
}


// Then notify the sequencer that the tracks have been modified using MarkAsChanged and UMovieSceneCompiledDataManager::GetPrecompiledData()->Compile.
void YourMarkAsChangedFunction(ULevelSequence* Sequence)
{
	if (Sequence)
	{
		Sequence->MarkAsChanged();
		if (UMovieSceneCompiledDataManager::GetPrecompiledData())
		{
			UMovieSceneCompiledDataManager::GetPrecompiledData()->Compile(Sequence);
		}
	}
}

方案二

UMovieSceneSequenceExtensions methods are not exported. They don’t have the PLUGIN_API macro in the class, so you can’t link to them. Someone on discord said you can copy the plugin into your own project and add your own API macro and rebuild, but seems like a bit of work.

#include "LevelSequencePlayer.h" #include "MovieSceneSequencePlaybackSettings.h" #include "DefaultLevelSequenceInstanceData.h" #include "LevelSequenceActor.h" void UMyAnimInstance::StartSequence_Implementation() { FMovieSceneSequencePlaybackSettings Settings; ALevelSequenceActor *SequenceActor = nullptr; ULevelSequencePlayer* player = ULevelSequencePlayer::CreateLevelSequencePlayer(this, this->MySequence, Settings, SequenceActor); check(player); check(SequenceActor); SequenceActor->bOverrideInstanceData = 1; UDefaultLevelSequenceInstanceData* InstanceData = Cast<UDefaultLevelSequenceInstanceData>(SequenceActor->DefaultInstanceData.Get()); InstanceData->TransformOrigin = this->GetOwningActor()->GetActorTransform(); UMovieScene* MovieScene = this->MySequence->GetMovieScene(); check(MovieScene); const FMovieSceneBinding* Binding = Algo::FindBy(MovieScene->GetBindings(), FString("SequencerActor"), &FMovieSceneBinding::GetName); check(Binding); EMovieSceneObjectBindingSpace Space = EMovieSceneObjectBindingSpace::Root; FMovieSceneObjectBindingID BindingID = UE::MovieScene::FRelativeObjectBindingID(Binding->GetObjectGuid()); // Not sure about this if (Space == EMovieSceneObjectBindingSpace::Root) { BindingID.ReinterpretAsFixed(); } SequenceActor->AddBinding(BindingID, this->GetOwningActor()); player->Play(); // Save actor and player in properties this->SequencerActor = SequenceActor; this->SequencerPlayer = player; }

自定义Track

UMovieSceneTrackInstance

大部分Track的instance类。

继承关系

UMovieSceneSignedObject -> UObject。一个UMovieScene由若干个MasterTrack(UMovieSceneTrack)组成，UMovieScene相当于是UMovieSceneTracks的容器，那么UMovieSceneTrack又由UMovieSceneSections组成，UMovieSceneSection就是一个Track中间的某一段。

UMovieSceneSignedObject

子类有UMovieScene、UMovieSceneSequence、UMovieSceneTrack、UMovieSceneSection。 定义：

  • FGuid Signature：用于确定Object身份，以便于绑定。
  • FOnSignatureChanged OnSignatureChangedEvent：ChangedEvent。

UMovieSceneSection

UMovieSceneSkeletalAnimationSection

UMovieSceneTrack

UMovieSceneSkeletalAnimationTrack

  • TArray<TObjectPtr<UMovieSceneSection>> AnimationSections：存储所有动画Section。
  • FMovieSceneSkeletalAnimRootMotionTrackParams RootMotionParams：RootMotion控制。

编辑器代码：FSkeletalAnimationTrackEditor

Sequence绑定机制笔记

  1. SpawnableObject(自动Spawn的Object)
    表示该Object在Sequence被Evaluate的时候自动Spawn，并且由Sequence来管理生命周期
  2. PossessableObject(可以被赋予的Object)
    表示该Object可以被外部赋予，比如我手动赋予一个Actor给某个Track

UMovieSceneSequence

UMovieSceneSequence::CreatePossessable() UMovieSceneSequence::BindPossessableObject()

绑定过程可以参考： ULevelSequenceEditorSubsystem::AddActorsToBinding(const TArray<AActor*>& Actors, const FMovieSceneBindingProxy& ObjectBinding)

ActorToSequencer

菜单出现逻辑位于：FLevelSequenceEditorActorBinding::BuildSequencerAddMenu(FMenuBuilder& MenuBuilder)。

FLevelSequenceEditorActorBinding::AddPossessActorMenuExtensions(FMenuBuilder& MenuBuilder) => FLevelSequenceEditorActorBinding::AddActorsToSequencer(AActor*const* InActors, int32 NumActors) => TArray<FGuid> FSequencer::AddActors(const TArray<TWeakObjectPtr<AActor> >& InActors, bool bSelectActors)； => TArray<FGuid> FSequencerUtilities::AddActors(TSharedRef<ISequencer> Sequencer, const TArray<TWeakObjectPtr<AActor> >& InActors)

TArray<FGuid> FSequencerUtilities::AddActors(TSharedRef<ISequencer> Sequencer, const TArray<TWeakObjectPtr<AActor> >& InActors)
{
	TArray<FGuid> PossessableGuids;

	UMovieSceneSequence* Sequence = Sequencer->GetFocusedMovieSceneSequence();
	if (!Sequence)
	{
		return PossessableGuids;
	}

	UMovieScene* MovieScene = Sequence->GetMovieScene();
	if (!MovieScene)
	{
		return PossessableGuids;
	}

	if (MovieScene->IsReadOnly())
	{
		ShowReadOnlyError();
		return PossessableGuids;
	}
	
	const FScopedTransaction Transaction(LOCTEXT("AddActors", "Add Actors"));
	Sequence->Modify();

	for (TWeakObjectPtr<AActor> WeakActor : InActors)
	{
		if (AActor* Actor = WeakActor.Get())
		{
			FGuid ExistingGuid = Sequencer->FindObjectId(*Actor, Sequencer->GetFocusedTemplateID());
			if (!ExistingGuid.IsValid())
			{
				FGuid PossessableGuid = CreateBinding(Sequencer, *Actor, Actor->GetActorLabel());
				PossessableGuids.Add(PossessableGuid);

				if (ACameraActor* CameraActor = Cast<ACameraActor>(Actor))
				{
					NewCameraAdded(Sequencer, CameraActor, PossessableGuid);
				}

				Sequencer->OnActorAddedToSequencer().Broadcast(Actor, PossessableGuid);
			}
		}
	}

	return PossessableGuids;
}

const FGuid PossessableGuid = OwnerMovieScene->AddPossessable(InName, InObject.GetClass());

if (!OwnerMovieScene->FindPossessable(PossessableGuid)->BindSpawnableObject(Sequencer->GetFocusedTemplateID(), &InObject, &Sequencer.Get()))
{
	OwnerSequence->BindPossessableObject(PossessableGuid, InObject, BindingContext);
}

FGuid FSequencerUtilities::CreateBinding(TSharedRef<ISequencer> Sequencer, UObject& InObject, const FString& InName)

	UObject* BindingContext = Sequencer->GetPlaybackContext();

	AActor* ParentActorAdded = nullptr;
	FGuid ParentGuid;

	if (ParentObject)
	{

			if (ParentSpawnable)
			{
				ParentSpawnable->AddChildPossessable(PossessableGuid);

	}

	if (!OwnerMovieScene->FindPossessable(PossessableGuid)->BindSpawnableObject(Sequencer->GetFocusedTemplateID(), &InObject, &Sequencer.Get()))
	{

	if (ParentActorAdded && ParentGuid.IsValid())
	{
		Sequencer->OnActorAddedToSequencer().Broadcast(ParentActorAdded, ParentGuid);
	}

	return PossessableGuid;
}

FAudioTrackEditor

FAudioTrackEditor::HandleAssetAdded(UObject* Asset, const FGuid& TargetObjectGuid) => FAudioTrackEditor::AddNewSound() => UMovieSceneAudioTrack::AddNewSoundOnRow(USoundBase* Sound, FFrameNumber Time, int32 RowIndex)

MovieSceneSkeletalAnimationTrack

  • UMovieSceneSkeletalAnimationTrack
  • UMovieSceneSkeletalAnimationSection
    • FMovieSceneSkeletalAnimationParams
      • TObjectPtr<UAnimSequenceBase> Animation
  • FSkeletalAnimationTrackEditor
  • UMovieSceneSkeletalAnimationSystem
  • FSkeletalAnimationTrackEditMode

Track的编辑器注册位于MovieSceneToolsModule.cpp：

AnimationTrackCreateEditorHandle = SequencerModule.RegisterTrackEditor( FOnCreateTrackEditor::CreateStatic( &FSkeletalAnimationTrackEditor::CreateTrackEditor ) );

只对UMovieSceneSkeletalAnimationTrack生效：

bool FSkeletalAnimationTrackEditor::SupportsSequence(UMovieSceneSequence* InSequence) const  
{  
    ETrackSupport TrackSupported = InSequence ? InSequence->IsTrackSupported(UMovieSceneSkeletalAnimationTrack::StaticClass()) : ETrackSupport::NotSupported;  
    return TrackSupported == ETrackSupport::Supported;  
}

FEditorModeRegistry::Get().RegisterMode<FSkeletalAnimationTrackEditMode>(  
    FSkeletalAnimationTrackEditMode::ModeName,  
    NSLOCTEXT("SkeletalAnimationTrackEditorMode", "SkelAnimTrackEditMode", "Skeletal Anim Track Mode"),  
    FSlateIcon(),  
    false);

FSkeletalAnimationTrackEditor

FSkeletalAnimationTrackEditor::BuildTrackContextMenu()：在MovieSceneSkeletalAnimationTrack的Animation上右键出现的菜单。 FSkeletalAnimationTrackEditor::BuildOutlinerEditWidget：MovieSceneSkeletalAnimationTrack下面生成Animtion那一列。

播放逻辑

ALevelSequenceActor::InitializePlayer() 
ALevelSequenceActor->SequencePlayer->Play(); 
ALevelSequenceActor->SequencePlayer->Update(DeltaSeconds);

具体的逻辑位于UMovieSceneSequencePlayer::PlayInternal()：

			}

			GEngine->SetMaxFPS(1.f / PlayPosition.GetInputRate().AsInterval());
		}

		//播放的核心逻辑估计在这里。
		if (!PlayPosition.GetLastPlayEvalPostition().IsSet() || PlayPosition.GetLastPlayEvalPostition() != PlayPosition.GetCurrentPosition())
		{
			UpdateMovieSceneInstance(PlayPosition.PlayTo(PlayPosition.GetCurrentPosition()), EMovieScenePlayerStatus::Playing);
		}

		RunLatentActions();
		UpdateNetworkSyncProperties();
		
		if (bReversePlayback)
		{

			}
		}
		else
		{

SequenceRecorder

SequenceRecorder模块的基类是ISequenceRecorder。

Sequencer ECS

使用ECS的原因

可伸缩性
如果使用新的运行时，应该能够编写包含成百上千个轨道或序列的内容，并且将这些内容作为一个整体来优化求值逻辑。这包括：

  • 分配和组织数据，使性能不会随着活动Sequencer轨道的增加而快速恶化。
  • 能够完全删除已知不再需要的逻辑和分支，不必在每一帧都为它们付出成本。没有代码就是最快的代码。这条原则应该适用于Sequencer求值代码的所有方面，而不仅限于最高级。
  • 求值逻辑应该能够直接、高效且不受阻碍地批量访问必要数据，而不必通过复杂或低效的抽象与内存交互。

并发性
写入求值逻辑应该很简单，而且天然就能安全而高效地扩展到多个核心，包括上游/下游依赖性的表达定义（例如，并行地对所有曲线求值）。由于具备仅设置一次管线的综合优点，这不仅能让许多轻量级的小型动画受益，也有益于非常大的序列。

可扩展性
应该可以在内置功能的基础上构建逻辑，而不必重新实现核心系统。添加与核心系统交互的上游或下游功能应该是可以合理实现的。这包括：

  • 在管线中的任何位置，当前帧的所有数据都应该是透明且可改变的。
  • 可靠的依赖性管理。

这些设计目标，再加上Sequencer本身的各种问题，使得采用数据导向的设计原则成为自然而然的选择，理由如下：

  • 大部分Sequencer数据是同质的，可以循序布局。
  • 每种数据变换的逻辑通常具有非常高的独立性，与情境无关（即运行函数f(x)来得到曲线）。
  • 控制和数据流是非常线性的，没有循环或递归的依赖性（也就是说，没有一种逻辑会要求重新计算已经计算出的数值）。
  • 只有初始设置和最终属性设置器才有线程限制。
