Hi,
when I use animation with agk:laySprite(my_sprite_index);
Would it be possible to get the time to the next frame?
I need to know the frame change right before the change itself. Because agk::Sync(); when changing the sprite's animation frame, it draws this frame already. Only after then, can I adjust a different sprite, so I get one FPS delay, which gives a small flick.
I hope this makes sense.
Otherwise, I will have to animate the sprite manually.

Thanks to everyone in advance!

You could try using Update() Render() and Swap() instead of Sync().

I haven't used c++ in a while so sorry if the code is not exactly right.

You are right.
Updating the sprite between Update() and Render() did it.
Thanks!
