Currently I’m using setInterval to make object changes at fixed intervals e.g. like say toggling a light on and off, but I was wondering if the Animation classes can somehow be used to do the same thing, just without any interpolation between key frames?
Using setInterval I strangely ended up with some timing glitches, like other processes were interferring and causing the intervals not to be consistent. I see in the Sprite code that a delta time check is being used in a render method, not setInterval. Is this the best approach or can the Animation classes be used without interpolation?
In particular the sweep_keys for the door. Frames 0 to 3*frame rate all have value 0 hence no interpolation. Careful use of constant values over set key frames can give you non interpolated intervals
Since I came across this post when trying to do something similar I’m adding my playground here in case anyone finds it interesting.
In this playground I’m syncing animation with a video using requestVideoFrameCallback.
One issue remains where the initial canvas gets distorted for some reason when engine._renderViews() is called. I do not quite get what’s happening yet.
