I have a sprite sheet and can't figure out the offset. Do I set the offset to the whole sheet or to the frame? I have tried many different options and rearranging. This is my latest attempt but it doesn't work:



Thanks for your help

You set the offset relative to the size of the displayed sprite. It looks like your sprite is 96x96, so setting the offset to 48&48 puts it in the center of the sprite.

The code you posted looks like it is probably setting up properly. But the last two commands basically mean that it is not animating.

"playSprite(walkSwordmanS, 15,0,1,1 )" sets it to play only the first frame and not loop. Basically, not doing any animation at all.

"stopSprite(walkSwordmanS)" would then stop the animation at its current frame (if it was actually running).

I was working on something else with the animation. I took it out as it is no longer needed. Still though my offset is at 0,0. I do want it in the middle and that is why I used 48, but no avail.

edit: no matter what number I put in there it is always 0,0. I tried 48, 96, 1000 and 5000. I should have definitely seen something change.

Figured it out. I was using setSpritePosition instead of setSpritePositionByOffset. 48 did put it in the middle.
