Small wins are always the best. Figuring out how to add small hand positioning so you can grip the joystick in a way to press the button with your thumb. Took me 2 days!! ?

Figured out how to drop and remove the animation

Played animation worked on entry but couldn’t kill it on dropping item. Think I need to do all this in the motion controller and have a variable isJoystick. Add a grab joystick animation and press button animation into the animation sequencer.
