How do I implement a knockback effect using animate. Something that sends a mob flying .

Lol I have no idea
mob/proc/
    Knockback(dir,mob/hit,duration)
        hit.knocking=1
        spawn(duration)hit.knocking=0
        while(hit&&hit.knocking)
            sleep(1)
        
            if(dir==NORTH)
                hit.dir=SOUTH
                hit.y++
            if(dir==SOUTH)
                hit.dir=NORTH
                hit.y--
            if(dir==EAST)
                hit.dir=WEST
                hit.x++
            if(dir==WEST)
                hit.dir=EAST
                hit.x--
            hit.Create_Trail()

Ohhh my Goood! why you use if(dir....)
just define in step proc direction...
mob/proc/KnockBack(var/mob/M,var/Dist,var/Dir)
    spawn(-1)
        var/Counter=1
        while(M && Counter<=Dist)
            M.icon_state="KnockBack"
            step(M,Dir);Counter+=1
            sleep(1)
        if(M)
            M.dir=turn(M.dir,180)
            M.icon_state=""

Because I want the mob getting hit to face the usrs direction before flying back, then fly back while facing the usr in their direction

Oh you can just change icon_state


Also if you use pixel movement just change step_x / step_y no x/y vars.
@Edit:
Hmmmmm i'm confused couse i will drill and i have question
Is posible to block animate movement state?
This code also doesn't suport ByOND collison system, :( why?
proc/My_slide(var/atom/movable/Ref,var/Dir,var/Speed=0)
    if(!Ref)    return
    if(!Dir)    Dir=Ref.dir
    if(!Speed)  Speed=Ref.step_size
    switch(Dir)
        if(NORTH)   {Ref.step_y+=Speed}
        if(SOUTH)   {Ref.step_y-=Speed}
        if(EAST)    {Ref.step_x+=Speed}
        if(WEST)    {Ref.step_x-=Speed}

mob/proc/KnockBack(var/mob/M,var/Dist,var/Dir)
    var/Counter=1
    while(M && Counter<=Dist)
        My_slide(M,Dir,5);Counter+=1
        sleep(world.tick_lag)

mob/verb/_Test()
    KnockBack(src,12,turn(src.dir,180))

cause youre manually changing step_x/y so it's not calling move which is what calls all the built in collision stuff
