SM2 - call animation

Animation
1

Hay, I have a problem with SM2 and scripting animation.

On scene I have one object (ship) and he can move left, right, up, down… also on scene is sprite pilotPrefab (created in SM2, with 4 animations: for movement to left, right, up, down) and now the problem :?

I don’t know how to call animation of pilotPrefab for left when I press left button to move ship. :?

P.S. I use JS !

look in the class doc provided with SM2

you will see you have function to call and play an anim at a particular index.

PlayAnim and DoAnim

so if your left anim are at index 2 in your array of animation

you can just do >>

mySprite.PlayAnim(2);

to call and play this anim, mySprite should be of type Sprite or PackedSprite so you can access this function for your current sprite.
