It was quite a bit of work, but worth it.

How exactly do you know where to add the effects in the text file? I see there's a bunch of ROTATEEFFECT using different sprite indexes but how is it determined at which point these should come into effect within the gani? Also how does it know which direction these effects would be applied to? Say I used sprite index 200 while the character was facing left, but than also used that same sprite in the facing right part of the gani, yet the sprites are applied differently within.. would it still use that same ROTATEEFFECT that was meant for the original left direction? I don't really get what's going on. XD
