Sprite animation FPS in runtime? (SOLVED)

[Ragetto]

@Pkeod

sprite.play_flipbook() allows you to set the playback_rate you should be able to manually count the frames based on the set rate and then play the animation again with the proper frame offset set when you want to change the speed so that you can slowmo/speed up animations without them appearing to restart.

Thank for your answer! All the keywords were included in it, but I struggled with almost every tiny thing (flipbook? playback_rate? offset? everything is new to me I’m currently tweaking the second tutorial ahah)… but I suppose this struggle is unavoidable.

Anyway, I ended up making it work by controlling each frame and playing them at my own pace, I can know which frame is currently played etc.

I no longer use the “FPS” property nor the playback_rate you mentioned in your message. I don’t know if this is how I should do, since this is so far away from the tutorial… but it works and at least I know why.

For now, every second the offset is increased by 0.1 (temporary values)… So I was wondering:

Is there a way to get (in code) the number of frames of a given animation? (from that I could calculate what’s missing - edit : in the meantime I’m using local variables (1 per animation), and it seems to work fine.
