Confuse about rive playing method, on iOS

I'm new in Rive. And I want to use Rive on iOS, but something confusing me.

When I play a animation that created with loop mode `One Shot`, with following code:

rViewModel.play(animationName: "animation_name", loop: .pingPong, direction: .autoDirection)

But the animate still playing in `oneshot` mode ???

Environment:

  • iOS 18.0;

  • RiveRuntime v6.5.11, from SPM

Did I do something wrong ?

Here is the comment of the method:

    /// Starts the active Animation or StateMachine from it's last position. It will start
    /// from the beginning if the active Animation has ended or a new one is provided.
    /// - Parameters:
    ///   - animationName: The name of a new Animation to play on the current Artboard
    ///   - loop: The loop mode for the active Animation
    @objc open func play(animationName: String? = nil, loop: RiveLoop = .autoLoop, direction: RiveDirection = .autoDirection)

What does your usage of the RiveViewModel initializer(s) look like? In my testing, it seems to ping pong if I do something like

RiveViewModel(fileName: "your_file_here", animationName: "Timeline 1", autoPlay: false)

which, for this case, bypasses the loading of any state machines you have in the file.
