animation speed
Author
hi,
how would i set the speed of a sprite''s animation? Basically i want something like:
draw frame 1
wait a few milliseconds
draw frame 2
wait
draw frame 3
etc...
All you have to do is check the time whenever you animate the sprite:
void AnimateSprite(Sprite* sprite)
{
if(GetTime() - prevTime() >= spriteAnimSpeed)
sprite->GetNextFrame();
}
see what I mean?

Might be a good idea to use ''while'' instead of ''if'' here. If the system froze up for a second, or you want to implement a pause feature on your game, the animation would look a bit funny when the game is unpaused.
