Is there any way to animated sprite?

Question

I want an animated sprite to stop it's animation by pressing a button.
So I wrote a script
func onButton3pressed():
if Input.isaction_pressed("Your Button"): $AnimatedSprite.play("stop")

But nothing happened. What should I do?

Answer 1

$AnimatedSprite.stop() is what you're looking for as what your code actually does is tell $AnimatedSprite to play an animation named "stop"

Something to be mindful of is that stop() does not reset your animation

Comments

Just for you to know, you can pass a bool to reset or not the animation while calling stop(). It's true by default, see https://docs.godotengine.org/fr/stable/classes/class_animationplayer.html#class-animationplayer-method-stop
