so im working on this game in construct for a class and am getting no help from my teammates. its a side scroller metroid-vania kind of game but your a monkey underwater and it should kind of control like echo the dolphin or something similar. our main character needs at least 4 animation; idle, idle shoot, swim, and swim shoot. so far i have it so when he moves swim plays and when hes not moving idle plays, but any which way i try to make him shoot and play the correct shooting animations it sets the animation to the first frame but does not play. i havent been able to find any help on this since not many people make side scrolers with 8 way function that are like a side scroller with an animated character. if you think you know any way to help please let me know, thanks
