sp_frame_delay

Prototypeint sp_frame_delay(int active_sprite, int delay[-1])

sp_frame_delay() gets or sets the delay for the active_sprite. The delay is the number of milliseconds between frames of animation.

A delay of 0 will cause it to use the default specified in the dink.ini.

In practice, this is useful to make enemies appear to animate as fast as they move. If their sp_speed was set to some absurd amount, it would appear rather odd if their animation looked like they were making two steps every forty feet.

void main( void )

    sp_brain(&current_sprite, 9);
    sp_speed(&current_sprite, 2);
    sp_frame_delay(&current_sprite, 30);
    // ....
