Helper utilities

Autonaming

If you have backwards or forwards in your animation name, they will be automatically reversed.

I.e. an animation name of run-forwards will be reversed and the new animation will be named run-backwards. I.e. an animation name of run-backwards will be reversed and the new animation will be named run-forwards.

If neither of these are found in your animation name, -reversed will be appended to the original name.

Calling from code

The code is pretty performant and can be called in your _ready function if you need to.

On my machine (Mac OSX) reversing an animation takes around 4 ms

You can call the static function helper.reverse(animation_player, anim_name: String, new_name: String) to reverse any animation in your animation player

You can call the static function helper.reverse_current(animation_player, new_name: String) to reverse the current animation
