Sprite cycling
« on: August 13, 2012, 08:40:48 AM »

As the name implies, I'd like to see ships with sprites cycling over time or with animations upon use of certain actions

Ways this could be used ?

:Having the ship open up to vent flux or deploy its venting shafts

:Having a ship deploy its flight deck to let fighters land and take off

:Having the ship deploy its maneuvering jets upon activation

:Have the ship's sprite just cycle at all times

:Have the ship's sprite react to its movements (sprites for going left and sprites for going right....you get the idea)

I would learn how to and make a mod but if I can't do any of the above its going to look horrible...

This has been suggested before, I can't find the links to the threads though. I'm sure someone will know where.

I did one of such myself....In fact it was one of my first post here I believe

I just don't want this to be forgotten, is all...
