Instead of using a normal idle animation, try using 2 separate animation names, and you can use the same animation sprites as the idle, just name it something different so it doesn't loop.

Do this.

actor.PlayAnim("anim1");
actor.PlayAnim("anim2");

After it plays the first animation, it should jump to the second animation. Let me know if that works. Another less effective way would be to just use this.Sleep(1000); put how many seconds the first animation is then use the play command to play the second one.

PlayAnim is not so good in idle, because it blocks. I'd prefer to apply an event to the last animation frame in the sprite ( e.g. "changeIdleAnim" ). Then in the Actors Script you write

on "changeIdleAnim" {
this.IdleAnimName = "otherIdleAnim"
}

Of course you have to add the "otherIdleAnim" in the .actor file.
