From tk2dSprite to animation

[JakeTBear]

Hello,

I have a sprite that doesnt animate, but upon click I want to change it into an animated sprite, I have thought of some ways of doing it (swapping the object for an animated sprite version) but I was wondering if there was another way to do this (in script), any direction towards the best solution would be highly appreciated! thanks

In tk2d 2.0 onwards, the animator is separate to the sprite. All you need to do is turn off the animator (GetComponent<tk2dSpriteAnimator>().enabled = false) if you don't want it to animate.

So there 's no need to have an "animated sprite" to have animations? they just need an sprite animator? can I give them this sprite animator at run time (with proper set up, as in giving them the right animation to play).

Thanks again!

The sprite animator is attached to a sprite (any kind of sprite). You still need the sprite itself, but the animator is separate, unlike tk2d 1.x
