Well, well, well, hasn’t it been a while? Quarter-yearly post time. This time, I have a bug report and a suggestion for @ralph
First off, the bug report. This seems to happen most commonly when animating in movieclips at 15 FPS with 1 tweened frame. When you move a figure and add a frame or, basically just try to animate a movieclip normally, sometimes to tweened frame doesn’t register the change so when playing it back, it ends up flickering between the original position and the actual position. This only appears to happen in the movieclip editor and not the main workspace, which is odd. In case it’s device-specific, I’m on a Samsung Galaxy Tab A7.
Next up, the suggestion. I think that, if a Movieclip is set to Play Once, there should be a checkbox option underneath that (only available to check on the Origin frame just like the Play Once and Loop checkboxes) to have the movieclip automatically delete itself when it reaches its end. This would be useful for many things such as effects, as rather than having to go through and delete them afterwards or just having a bunch of blank movieclips now laying around, they just auto-delete. Same goes for things that would be part of a game’s UI (such as a movieclip of text [using figures] that says, for example, CRITICAL, popping up for a second or two) to get rid of it and save nodes at the end. This isn’t required, just a sort of QoL thing.





who u
I’m Wingidon, a random guy on the internet who enjoys animating, playing games and watching YouTube. Call me Wing for short if you want.
(also, holy crap that was a recent reply, I literally posted that 3 minutes before you replied to it)
taco bell chicken Wing
That one guy who does a post on average every 3 months with mainly bugs to report.
Also to Wing, people commenting on posts a few mins after it’s made isn’t super uncommon
for someone whose name is “funny” this post was anything but
It’s a username I thought up when I was like 5 and I still cringe at it to this day. If I could, I would go back in time and slap past me. Hard.
(Note: I thought up the username a good while before I created my account. I’m not 9 years old, I’m a lot older than that)
In all seriousness, what’s the status regarding the bug, and how likely is the suggestion to be added in?
haven’t experienced the bug yet, will try to get it to happen when im back at my PC but im not quite sure i understand what im looking for exactly
if you can video capture it that’d be much appreciated tho
as for the movieclip deleting, mayhaps, its a good idea and shouldn’t be too hard to implement
Good to know that the movieclip auto-deleting may be added. Here’s a video on one of the ways I’ve managed to consistently replicate the bug:
first off lol @ the vid
looking at this now and trying to figure it out
tweening is in fact acting weird in my testing now trying to replicate this, seems to be when it’s 1fps but i can’t seem to see the root cause yet
who coded this bullshit
fixed it, it does only happen with MCs, and only when 1fps
weird bug but thx yo
