AnimatedSprite

AnimatedSprite

Inherits: Node2D < CanvasItem < Node < Object

Sprite node that can use multiple textures for animation.

Description

Animations are created using a SpriteFrames resource, which can be configured in the editor via the SpriteFrames panel.

Note: You can associate a set of normal maps by creating additional SpriteFrames resources with a _normal suffix. For example, having 2 SpriteFrames resources run and run_normal will make it so the run animation uses the normal map.

Properties

String	animation	`“default”`
bool	centered	`true`
bool	flip_h	`false`
bool	flip_v	`false`
int	frame	`0`
SpriteFrames	frames
Vector2	offset	`Vector2( 0, 0 )`

Methods

bool	is_playing ( ) const
void	play ( String anim=””, bool backwards=false )
void	stop ( )

Signals

animation_finished ( )

Emitted when the animation is finished (when it plays the last frame). If the animation is looping, this signal is emitted every time the last frame is drawn.

frame_changed ( )

Emitted when frame changed.

Property Descriptions

String animation

Default	`“default”`
Setter	set_animation(value)
Getter	get_animation()

The current animation from the frames resource. If this value changes, the frame counter is reset.

bool centered

Default	`true`
Setter	set_centered(value)
Getter	is_centered()

If true, texture will be centered.

bool flip_h

Default	`false`
Setter	set_flip_h(value)
Getter	is_flipped_h()

If true, texture is flipped horizontally.

bool flip_v

Default	`false`
Setter	set_flip_v(value)
Getter	is_flipped_v()

If true, texture is flipped vertically.

int frame

Default	`0`
Setter	set_frame(value)
Getter	get_frame()

The displayed animation frame’s index.

SpriteFrames frames

Setter	set_sprite_frames(value)
Getter	get_sprite_frames()

The SpriteFrames resource containing the animation(s).

Vector2 offset

Default	`Vector2( 0, 0 )`
Setter	set_offset(value)
Getter	get_offset()

The texture’s drawing offset.

bool playing

Default false

If true, the animation is currently playing.

float speed_scale

Default	`1.0`
Setter	set_speed_scale(value)
Getter	get_speed_scale()

The animation speed is multiplied by this value.

Method Descriptions

bool is_playing ( ) const

Returns true if an animation is currently being played.

void play ( String anim=””, bool backwards=false )

Plays the animation named anim. If no anim is provided, the current animation is played. If backwards is true, the animation will be played in reverse.

void stop ( )

Stops the current animation (does not reset the frame counter).
