How can I copy construction robots' animation onto logistic robots?

Post by rainawareness »

Construction robots have a RotatedAnimation type called working, which has their 2-frame animation when they are repairing a building.

I don't know how to code something like that or view its code to emulate it. However, I want to made a mod that gives logistic robots a 2 frame animation to logistic robots to make them seem more alive. It has types such as in_motion_with_cargo, which are the same RotatedAnimation thing. https://wiki.factorio.com/Prototype/Log ... with_cargo
Since I couldn't find any sort of guides on animating, I was wondering if someone could please point me in the right direction.

Logistics bots don't have the "working" state. Those flying bot states are hardcoded and can't be added or altered by Lua mods.
