Problem Description
____ A concise description of your problem here ____
We recently ran into a red loading bar on testing our project. This occurred only after the addition of another "character animation." These are about 50x100 (*with 250 frames each).
Upon testing we were able to determine that it was not the size of the file, but the frame count that caused a problem. The test run is requesting too many calls from the local server, and returning a "insufficient resources" error code.
Removing the character sprite solves the problem, but now we have to delete 5+ chars just to run it, and then ctrl-Z them back in (this is very frustrating).
The export works fine, but this is because construct compiles sprite animations into singular sprite sheets, while in the IDE it does not (nor does it allow animations to be held as single sheets).
