OTHER FEATURE REQUESTS

For feature requests in extensions or services please provide the following information:

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe (REQUIRED):
Kenney released a new spritesheet for platforms and the sprites are aligned vertically not sequentially left to right.

Describe the solution you’d like (REQUIRED):
Allow developers to choose specific tiles to play in order via a spritesheet loaded as a tilesource.

Describe alternatives you’ve considered (REQUIRED):
I can recreate the tilesource which is a ton of work per developer. or export to individual images and then build the animation. But if we can improve defold to do this…it will save devs a ton of time.

Additional context (OPTIONAL):
Add any other context or screenshots about the feature request here.

FYI the feature request needs to go here to actually be considered:

This forum category is a bit confusing. I guess it’s mostly for discussing a feature request before actually raising it.

The purpose of this category is explained here: About the Feature requests category (I updated the description to match the way we work now).

The forum is still a good place to discuss feature requests since a lot of users are active here, but we will not consider new feature requests posted here.
