Building turret animations

Building turret animations

• By default building TurretAnim(Damaged) with TurretAnimIsVoxel=false only displays one frame per each of the 32 facings. This can now be increased and there are additional animations available for low power state and firing weapons.
  • The frames in the .shp file should be in the order: IdleFrames, LowPowerIdleFrames, FiringFrames, LowPowerFiringFrames, animations with frame count set to 0 will be skipped / ignored.
  • Note that FiringFrames starts playing when attacking and weapon can fire, it will not stop firing of weapon until it has finished playing nor will anything prevent it from looping multiple times if weapon firing is blocked by delayed firing for longer than there are frames for. Matching delayed firing duration with firing frame count can be used to make pre-firing animation.
  • TurretAnim.IdleRate and TurretAnim.FiringRate can be used to customize animation frame playback rate for idle and firing frames respectively.

In rulesmd.ini:

[SOMEBUILDING]                     ; BuildingType
TurretAnim.IdleFrames=1            ; integer
TurretAnim.LowPowerIdleFrames=0    ; integer
TurretAnim.FiringFrames=0          ; integer
TurretAnim.LowPowerFiringFrames=0  ; integer
TurretAnim.IdleRate=1              ; integer, game frames
TurretAnim.FiringRate=1            ; integer, game frames

Actually, there may be a bug, but I can't properly recreate it. It's like AI trying to shoot when lowpowered, despite TurretAnim.LowPowerFiringFrames=0 so it's using shadow frames. But again, so hard to recreate, didn't figured out yet.

I think I got it, it's like AI using TogglePower on some turrets

Potentially fixed the issues with frame calcs, added customization for frame playback rates.
