Flipbooks

The Flipbook alteration will change the image of your sprite repeatedly to create a simple flipbook animation.


create routine as Start
  launch rider
end
create sprite from horse12.png as rider
  where x=100 y=100
  having alt=flipHorse
end
create flipbook as flipHorse
  where images=("horse1.png","horse2.png","horse3.png","horse4.png","horse5.png","horse6.png","horse7.png","horse8.png","horse9.png","horse10.png","horse11.png") and
    loop=true
end

Parameters

completion={routine}: specify a routine to run when the last frame is complete (non-looping)
frames=({number},{number},...}): use this if you want to mix up the order of images shown to be different from the order of the images listed in the images parameter. Use 1 for the first frame ie: 1-based indexing. You can also use random as a value to randomize frames.
images=({string},{string},...}): list of images to be shown for each frame - please quote the image names
keeplast={true|false}: specify if the sprite should keep the last frame as its image after the flipbook is done running
loop={true|false}: specify if the flipbook should repeat continuously
times=({number},{number},...}): specify how long each frame should be displayed. The default is 50ms per frame
