is it possible to add an entry in the sprite editor that every frame has the same delay. ??
i have some water animations in some scenes that have up to 20 layers.

then i want to change this "special delay" from within my scene. so the animation is not looking so clean, because its evertime the same ...
or even better maybe a random delay (10,15) so every animation is unique in its timeframe ....

There is a "Copy to all frames" button right beside the delay field, which copies the same delay to all frames.

To change delays at runtime you can use a script. Sprites and their frames are fully scriptable, so you can make a loop which traverses all the frames and changes their delays.

okay, blind me. i havent recognized the button for copying to all frames .....

sorry to bother you again.
Can you please give me an example how to script every sprite frame sleep period individually ..
does it override the delay time that is set in the sprite editor ??

Code: [Select]

var Sprite = SomeEntity.GetSpriteObject();
for(var i=0; i<Sprite.NumFrames; i=i+1)
{
  var Frame = Sprite.GetFrame(i);
  Frame.Delay = Random(100, 500);
}
Yes, it overrides the delays set in SpriteEdit.
