Two characters in one animation.

Billy

Hello, I need to make animation on 2 characters, like one character lifts another. But I need to keep using a lot of skins on both. And I need to put body of one chatacters between hands of another (left arm - behind body, right arm -in front of) so I can;t make 2 different separate animation for each character, and then merge them in unity2 because each one has it own draw order. So using unity2d I can only impose one character animation with different skins on another character animation. How can i solve this problem? Thank you.

Hmm… just some thoughts.

Hide the arm in skeleton 1, add an arm in skeleton 2 at the desired position. The difficulty here is to adjust player 1 with his arm on skeleton 2. The skin of the arm would need another workaround.

how essential is it that the hand appears infront/behind the other character. This is quite hard to do. We did a lot of research of 2d games which throw people, and most games, such as shank, don't even bother changing the draw order, the main character is always in front

Ok, thank you all. As I found at the moment "Best" decision was make 3 skeleton 1 - 1st character without arm, then 2 skeleton, then 3 skeleton - arm of 1st character. Sorry, I have another question about mesh and skins - should I start new topic or ask here?
The question is - how can I copy mesh from one image to another? for different kinds of dress with same form in skins for example

oh no, you're not thinking about adding one skeleton into the other are you? 🙁

no, I am going to make 3 skeletom/animation and then combine them in unity2d.

Sorry, can you help me here? Best option that I found for this moment is copy image with ready mesh in 1st skin, paste it in 2 second, change path to new image and change a bit mesh if it's necessary. Is this right?
