IvanIconFlickerRate: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 14:49, 7 May 2006

The game contains the "ticking down" animation bombcurs.shp , which is used in the following way:

When the bomb is placed, the first 12 frames of the animation are split into 6 2-frame subanimations.
The first subanimation starts to play.
Every IvanBombFlickerRate frames, the subanim flips to the other frame of the same anim.
1/6th of the IvanTimedDelay later, the second subanim starts to play.
Every IvanBombFlickerRate frames, the subanim flips to the other frame of the same anim.
Again, 1/6th of the IvanTimedDelay later, the third subanim starts to play.
...
Continue until the entire delay is passed, and the bomb detonates.
