Benimator

A sprite sheet animation plugin for bevy

Features

• A SpriteSheetAnimation asset
• Automatic update indices of a TextureAtlasSprite
• Animation modes: once, repeat and ping_pong
• An animation is playing if, and only if, a Play component is present in the entity
  • Simply remove/insert the Play component to pause/resume an animation
• The animation can be defined from an index-range, or an arbitrary list of indices
• Each frame may have a different duration

Usage

```rust fn main() { App::new() .addplugins(DefaultPlugins) .addplugin(AnimationPlugin::default()) // <-- Add the plugin .addstartupsystem(spawn) .run(); }

fn spawn( mut commands: Commands, assetserver: Res, mut textures: ResMut>, mut animations: ResMut>, ) { // Don't forget the camera ;-) commands.spawnbundle(OrthographicCameraBundle::new_2d());

// Create an animation // Here we use an index-range (from 0 to 4) where each frame has the same duration let animationhandle = animations.add(SpriteSheetAnimation::fromrange( 0..=4, Duration::from_millis(100), ));

commands // Spawn a bevy sprite-sheet .spawnbundle(SpriteSheetBundle { textureatlas: textures.add(TextureAtlas::fromgrid(assetserver.load("coin.png"), Vec2::new(16.0, 16.0), 5, 1)), transform: Transform::fromscale(Vec3::splat(10.0)), ..Default::default() }) // Insert the asset handle of the animation .insert(animationhandle) // Start the animation immediately. Remove this component in order to pause the animation. .insert(Play); } ```

Installation

Add the dependency to your project

sh cargo add benimator

Cargo features

• yaml deserialization from yaml asset files (also requires unstable-load-from-file)
• ron deserialization from ron asset files (also requires unstable-load-from-file)
• bevy-07 all integrations with bevy 0.7

Unstable features

Any API behind one of theses feature flags is unstable, should not be considered complete nor part of the public API. Breaking changes to that API may happen in minor releases

• unstable-load-from-file Load animation assets from yaml/ron files. It also requires either ron or yaml (or both) features.

It may be increased to a newer stable version in a minor release. (but only if needed)

It will be increased to the latest stable version in a major release. (even if not needed)
