Q : How do we activate actor animations without them moving?

Hello everybody.

I hope some clever soul can help, I am new to MV (Had it 3 days!) and I am doing ok, though I have been trying to script in actor animations on the map screen during events, without success. Does anybody know how this is best achieved?

What I want, is during a map screen cut-scene, for an actor to use his weapon (a bullwhip) from his standing position without walking or entering battle. After he's used the whip, the actor he uses it upon has to fly back and crash into the wall; then the player rushes forward to help him up and they both then rush into the guard with the whip, to attack.

This is how I will open the initial training battle, which I want as a scripted loss that does not kill the player.

I'd be appreciative of any help and comments :) Thankyou all!
