Right now I'm trying to get the code for the swinging radar dish to work properly and I'm trying to use it to make fins, feelers and snapping claws.
I managed to get the simple rotation to work but letting it swing forth and back in an arc is weird.
Thank you Bjørn_in_the_Sector!
Edit: Thanks to Okim I could figure it out. Would've been very ugly to do it with picture by picture animations.
(Edit: just tried a pictuer by picture animation, looks actually quite nice. You can watch it at art spoiler)
@ Etherealblade: First of all thank you very much, I apreciate that.
In game you don't notice the steps on the outlines. Shaded version is done but lacks eyes atm. Current picture is an early version, eyes are going to be blinking randomly in the finished version.
Ingame picture showing that it looks fine on a dark bg. (Wings are placeholders borrowed from Ironclads, not gonna be in any version of the mod)
