DISREGARD
Error happened do to unusual circumstance that was worked around.
Never found root of problem, but was able to bypass by loading animations later in the code. Thanks
So I think there may be a error here. Don't want to speak to soon, but if I'm wrong I'm wrong, but if I'm right I might actually be able to contribute to making the program better by finding it!
So this is what I was doing:
load animation "Mr.wmv",1
load animation "Dork.wmv",2
loop animation 1,1,1,screen width(),screen height()
while animation playing(1)
if keystate(1) = 1 then stop animation 1 place animation 1,0,0,0,0
endwhile
play animation 2
This causes the 2nd animation to appear as a black frozen screen.
If I change the stop/place animation with delete animation then everything works great.
I believe that when I go to "play animation 2" it is still stuck on the 1'st animations stop.
Edit: I just condensed it some more and it worked with only that code to run it. Get back as soon as I can if I can find what the missing component is
Edit: I remember reading somewhere that you could play some audio files and other things with the play animation command. I believe that when I declared another media file with the same number as the animation it took precedence on the play animation command. Don't know if that wold be considered an error or not
