I Need tips with animations

Hi, i need to improve my code.
I need to know two things.
1 - Show an animation just one time, without loop.
Code: Select all
if(arrEnemyFrame[enemyIndex] == 0)
{
arrEnemies[enemyIndex]->timer = 0;
SPR_setAnimAndFrame(arrEnemies[enemyIndex], ANIM_PIRATE_DIE, 0);
arrEnemyFrame[enemyIndex] ++;
}
else
{
if (arrEnemyFrame[enemyIndex] == (arrEnemies[enemyIndex]->animation->length))
{
SPR_setVisibility(arrEnemies[enemyIndex], HIDDEN);
}
else
{
SPR_nextFrame(arrEnemies[enemyIndex]);
arrEnemyFrame[enemyIndex] ++;
}
}
2 - Show just one frame from animation without play other frames.
Code: Select all
arrEnemies[enemyIndex]->timer = 0;
SPR_setAnimAndFrame(arrEnemies[enemyIndex], ENEMY_DIE, 0);
Thank you for help!

You need to pass the timer to 0 after the SPR_update() call :
Code: Select all
SPR_setAnimAndFrame(arrEnemies[enemyIndex], ENEMY_DIE, 0);
...
// actually update the anim / frame
SPR_update();
// disable auto animation for further SPR_update() call
arrEnemies[enemyIndex]->timer = 0;
And there is no way to disable loop except putting timer to 0 when you reach last frame of animation.

I found this way to make it works, i don't know if this is the best.
Thanks Stef.
Code: Select all
if(arrEnemyFrame[enemyIndex] == 0)
{
arrEnemies[enemyIndex]->timer = 0;
SPR_setAnimAndFrame(arrEnemies[enemyIndex], ANIM_PIRATE_DIE, 0);
arrEnemyFrame[enemyIndex] ++;
}
else
{
if (arrEnemyFrame[enemyIndex] == (arrEnemies[enemyIndex]->animation->length))
{
SPR_setVisibility(arrEnemies[enemyIndex], HIDDEN);
}
else
{
SPR_nextFrame(arrEnemies[enemyIndex]);
arrEnemyFrame[enemyIndex] ++;
}
}

Looks like a bit complicated but so you want to hide it after animation or just stay on last frame ?

I want to show the defeat animation (6 frames) one time and hide the sprite.

Then your solution is ok for that but i guess you can simply use a counter which start at defeat time then after some frames (when animation is done) you simply hide the sprite
