next time you wanna make your game stratocast into popularity, do the same thing as the among us devs did, just commission some random popular twitch streamer to play it for 10 minutes, ez.

@ralph told you I’m getting visual aid for the tweening problem / thing

From top to bottom

Animation 1:no tweening

Animation 2 : ACTUAL tweening

Animation 3 : tweening that just fills the frame till it’s smooth and that sucks

Animation 4 : ” elastic ” tweening

Ya I know they look mediocre but it’s better than nothing.

Now, I’d like to address the differen between the tweening that sucks and the actual tweening

So, if you compare the animations by the tweening that sucks and by the actual tweening, they do be looking different, actual tweening doesn’t fill the frame till it looks smooth, it just in-between ONCE for each frame, it’s exactly like pressing 50% tweening for each frame once.

The tweening that sucks, it just fills everything till it’s ” smooth ” and it sucks.

b u t n o t c o m p l e t l y

E.G : PL : Instigation, and Alsnapz’s animations ( you look it up, all 3 lettered agencies is gonna be chasing your ass, but it’s still an excellent example )

If you fully articulate your stickfigure ( every part of the body moves along with eachother, stretching, squashing ), put some effort into it and animate it at a high fps, then activate the-tweening-that-sucks, it actually looks fonking good, when tweening is supposed to be for low-effort time saving smooth animation ( originally what it’s purpose was )

Tweening in SN only looks good for high-effort animation in some circumstances, actual tweening is good for time-saving, low effort animation, only that it’s not automatic and it’s manual in SN ( 50% tween button ).

Man I’d like to help but I barely know how to ” hello world ” in Lua.

@ralph yo, c\’mere and read this a bit.

Your tweening SUCKS.

What I mean is that it only has one type of tweening, and that\’s also terrible.

In other advanced animation programs like Flash, they have multiple types of tweening for different purposes, what SN has is what I like to call \” smooth tweening \”, it just fills in the frames until the animation looks nearly completely smooth, and it sucks.

In Flash, they do have that kind of crappy tweening but a bit better, however they do have an option for ACTUAL tweening, it\’s not just a mindless program filling every in-between it can find to make it smooth without any \” gaps \” / choppiness, it actually just in-between each frame instead of filling everything to make it look smooth, this form of tweening exist in sticknodes ( the 50% tween button ), it is manual which is better but I don\’t think you can adjust the amount of tweening to a custom number like 15% or 60%, if there is, just let me know and it makes tweening in SN seem less oober clan.

Then, there is the Elastic Tweening, the name is almost self-explanatory, it makes your animation look elastic and bouncy, since tweening here cannot be done in a frame that\’s not between other frames, it must have some smart AI that calculates the bounciness and elasticity for the next frame, this would be a pain in the ass to script but it would be worth it for people who \’toon.

Then, there is gradient tweening, a tweening, for colors that goes to another color, you want a nice changing gradient from black to white ? Activate gradient tweening, easy.

Then there\’s collective tweening, this one is either the smooth tweening that sucks and the actual tweening that just does in-between instead of filling, alrighty, so for this, you animate separate nodes, then it tweens each node individually, aftern animating that, it animates the entire stickfigure with all of the individual node tweened individually ( in a layer ), then bam, animation lookin\’ smooth like a new Nutella jam, this is present in flipaclip, and it saves alot of time.

Okay, so all of this is a bit difficult to comprehend, so lemme get some visual aids tommorow or some time after because 9 pm moment.
