# Player Animation

The Player Animation script has no public inspector properties, but depends on the 'Animator' component.

## Internals

The core of the player animation component is the 'OnUpdatePlayerState()' method, which listens to the PlayerMovement event of the same name, like so:

```
PlayerMovement.onUpdatePlayerState += OnUpdatePlayerState;
```

The onUpdatePlayerState event passes along the PlayerState structure, which contains both the resulting player state as well as the raw input from the player.
