Hi, I use path_start and try to change animation set if(path_position > 0.8), but new animation set does not work, it freeze. Is it a limitation of GM2? How to avoid it?

Hey Guest! Ever feel like entering a Game Jam, but the time limit is always too much pressure? We get it... You lead a hectic life and dedicating 3 whole days to make a game just doesn't work for you! So, why not enter the GMC SLOW JAM? Take your time! Kick back and make your game over 4 months!

The condition used to trigger an animation change can be anything you like - including a path_position check - as long as you are using the skeletal animation functions correctly to start the animation.
What I suspect is happening based on your less than descriptive post is that the animation is constantly being restarted every step when path_position is > 0.8 and so will appear to be stuck and not animating when in fact it is but it never gets to go past frame 0 before you reset it.
You will need to add a flag to your code to check whether the animation has already been started so that it isn't reset every step once path_start > 0.8.
