Sprite Kit animateWithTextures lags

Question

I\'m using texture atlases in my Sprite Kit game. I\'m creating SKTextureAtlas object and store it\'s textures in array for each animation. So when I need some

Answer 1

had the same problem and I solved it in my game by not using atlases. So try this example:

-(void)makePlayerAnimation:(SKSpriteNode *)player
{
SKTexture *texture1 = [SKTexture textureWithImageNamed:@"texture1.png"];
SKTexture *texture2 = [SKTexture textureWithImageNamed:@"texture2.png"];
SKTexture *texture3 = [SKTexture textureWithImageNamed:@"texture3.png"];


SKAction *animationTextures = [SKAction animateWithTextures:@[texture1, texture2, texture3] timePerFrame:0.1];


[player runAction:animationTextures];
}

When you wish to activate animation do this:

[self makePlayerAnimation:myNode];

or

[self makePlayerAnimation:self.myNode];

Just depends how you declared it. If you need to run animation forever, you can just add line at the end of previous method:

SKAction *repeat = [SKAction repeatActionForever: animationTextures];

Hope this helps.
