Allow selecting direction for tile source animations #1713

Open jesta88 opened 6 years ago

jesta88 commented 6 years ago

We are porting a game to Defold, and our sprite sheets have the animations "top to bottom" instead of "left to right". Right now this would require modifying hundreds of sprite sheets, which is not reasonable for us.

Being able to specify "top to bottom" for animations would allow us to continue with Defold for the port.

Out of curiosity, what engine are you porting from? What tool stores animations top to bottom?

jesta88 commented 6 years ago

It's from a custom, very old engine. I know it's a weird design decision, but it's one we have to live with on this project. Maybe this issue is just too specific and we'll have to build a tool that changes columns to rows. Feel free to close this if that's the case.

Thanks! Hmm... yes maybe a bit of ImageMagick-fu is the best solution here. Implementing this in the editor and build tools would probably take longer than you're willing to wait.
