Hi,
I am somewhat new to DOTween and have been trying to migrate from Unity's animation system to this one.
I have a simple animation sequence that I want to have in my game, it goes as follows:
m_MoveLeft = DOTween.Sequence();
m_MoveLeft.Insert(0.0f, m_PlayerModel.DOScale(new Vector3(1.25f, 0.8f, 1.0f), 0.05f));
m_MoveLeft.Insert(0.05f, m_PlayerModel.DOScale(new Vector3(1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f), 0.2f));
Vector3[] _path = new Vector3[5];
_path[0] = new Vector3(0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f);
_path[1] = new Vector3(-.5f, 0.35f, 0.0f);
_path[2] = new Vector3(-1.0f, 0.55f, 0.0f);
_path[3] = new Vector3(-1.5f, 0.35f, 0.0f);
_path[4] = new Vector3(-2.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f);
m_MoveLeft.Insert(0.0f, m_PlayerModel.DOPath(_path, 0.5f, PathType.CatmullRom, PathMode.Ignore).SetRelative().SetEase(Ease.Linear));
This works fine if I play it once. But once the animation is done the player is in a different spot and if I try to move left again the sequence restarts from the original position and not the new position. Through research I found out a sequence is like a movie and therefore, static in nature. The points won't change once they are set. And that's exactly the opposite of what I am trying to do.
Now to the questions.
Is there a way to do what I want using sequences? Having changing start and end positions to them?
If not, how can I accomplish something similar with a Tweener? Should I be chaining callbacks after each tween is done? That does not seem correct at all to me.
Anyway, thanks for taking the time!

I'm an utter noob at programming, so in all likelihood this will be useless advice, but:
The sequence plays the same because your script establishes set floating-point values for each Vector3 variable. Instead of setting each of your Vector3 to a specific floating point value, can't you use x,y,z values which reference or integrate the changes you've made?
