FCurve node? Gee, I didn't even know there was one. Might have something to do with the fact I would have never thought to look in anything other than Kinematics or Curves for that. :)
I'll certainly try it.

Make the animation curve in there and grab values base on a scalar input. On Fri, Jul 12, 2013 at 1:49 PM, Ponthieux, Joseph G.

I did manage to bring in the StoredFcvAction and the value and pass it along to something else. I can pull any value from any defined frame. Problem is this does not look portable. The action is stored under Mixer Sources and not under "self". I need this to inherit the original scalar animation from any object which this tree is applied and inherit any changes. I'm guessing a new action would need to be created every time a change is made to the original. Is that correct?

I want to load the sequence of values(represented by the animation curve) into an ICE array so that I can extract a value from any frame by selecting that corresponding index. For example, if I am on frame 99 I want to get the animation value from Frame 3. I thought arrays would permit me to do this but it seems I've only been able to insert or set a value on a specific frame, the minute I move to another frame the index value is lost. I can't figure out if this is possible.
