AnimatorPlay null subject

[Kamotachi]

Hi!
I have started a new project and I'm using this Dialogue System again because in my previous game I was very happy using it.

In my previous game the dialogues were between avatars, but in this new game there are 3rd person characters.

The main character is a gameObject called “Player” and has a child object called “sprites”.
This object(sprites) contains the Animator that plays the player's animations.

I am trying to make it do an animation called “surprise”(which is already set in the Animator) from the Sequencer of one of the dialog nodes.

I have tried these ways:
- AnimatorPlay(sprites, surprise);
- AnimatorPlay(“sprites”, surprise);
- AnimatorPlay(Player, surprise);
- AnimatorPlay(GameObject(sprites), surprise);

I have also tried to put a component “DialogueActor” configuring it as Player, to the object sprites, that is who has the animator. and - AnimatorPlay(speaker, surprise);

Anyway it always results in the console as “AnimatorPlay() command: subject is null.

I wonder if it can influence that the player is always present in the scene and is never destroyed. Surely I'm doing something wrong, or I'm missing something.

OMG, Sorry, this is solved!
I knew it was silly

I was writing the order inside the AnimatorPlay function backwards.
