Seems like this puzzle doesn’t affect current render frame and to get correct data you have to use “time wait” function. It is not obvious, so it’d better have “when finished do” option.

I prepared a simple test case, where you can switch True/False value to compare results between transformations of Set Animation vs Set Scale.

Check console log: Set Scale immediately gives proper output, while Set Animation isn’t.

What you want to do with it? & what you are exactly trying to say?

I checked, it flattens the cone and then nothing happens.
No 3d view handling or anything.

If you open browser console, you will see two messages.
If Set Animation is active, first info shows incorrect Z scale right after Cone was squeezed.

Hi,
This is not quite a bug. The animation updates happen right before rendering (to eliminate possible delays), while timer events are triggered somewhere in-between of two consecutive frames. Actually, the after 0 second(s) is the right approach in your case. Regarding the new “when finished do” parameter, we might consider adding it, however it might also increase complexity of this puzzle.

Thanks for attention!
Would be great to have that implemented, otherwise “time wait” workaround worth a mention in the manual.
