SDK v2 - Behavior action's properties of type animation crash on invalid object types

[sotano42]

Problem description

When setting up an action with properties of type "animation", construct allows you to use that behavior on different object types, no only sprites. If you add a behavior to a tilemap with an action than supports an "animation", it causes construct to crash. You can test this feature on the basic bullet behavior.

In some cases we need to develop behaviors that have handy features that change animations, those same behaviors can be used in many different objects although not all of them support animations. When adding these type of behaviors to objects that do not support animations, construct should simply ignore. A use case will be buttons, 9-patch are an example of an invalid object type. 9Patch and Sprites are both suitable to be used as buttons.

Steps to reproduce

1. Add an action to change the animation in the aces.json file

2. Add the behavior to an invalid object type, for instance to a tilemap.

3. Go to the event sheed and call the action, start typing any text.

4. Construct autocomplete crashes the engine because it is on a invalid object type.

Observed result

Expected result

If the property of type "animation" is on an invalid object, the engine should not crash and simply ignore the action.
