Could you add a toggle loop when importing animations? Or perhaps theres an option on Aseprite

How can I port this to godot 4?

I struggled for some minutes trying to find out where is the entry point to import animations. In the end i only found it by looking at the picture in the readme (yeah, sorry, i usually go straight to text). So adding a clarification saying "It adds a main screen next to AssetLib" would be very useful.

It's my understanding sprite sheet animations should be discreet. You don't want to interpolate between frames, you want to instantly jump.

So after this line:
# Set the track Interpolation Mode to Nearest
animation.track_set_interpolation_type(track.idx, Animation.INTERPOLATION_NEAREST)
I added this line:
# Set Update mode to discreet
animation.value_track_set_update_mode(track.idx, Animation.UPDATE_DISCRETE)

I followed the instructions: exported a JSON file from Aseprite, but when I try to import the json I get:

 res://addons/aseprite_importer/interface/import_menu/JSONImportMenu.gd:59 - Invalid get index 'JSON_PARSE_ERROR' (on base: 'Dictionary').

This is really strange because the json is valid:

{ "frames": {
   "particles 0.aseprite": {
    "frame": { "x": 0, "y": 0, "w": 8, "h": 8 },

Thank you for your Godot plug-in. It works very well. I like it very much. But it has another bug. When I create a new animation, I can't select animationplayer. When I click generate animation, Godot prompts me to choose animationplayer. Restart Godot to solve this problem. I use version 3.2.2 of Godot. Thank you again for your plug-in. I hope you can fix this bug.

From what I can tell if you aren't using borders, the offset x&y for every frame of every anim is 0. I put in a check so that if all offset keys are 0x0 for an anim, it calls animation.remove_track(tracks.offset.idx) at the end to delete the unneeded anim track.

When I go to import a JSON, nothing is rendered in the sprite view, though I can see the tags listed. In the console, there's this output:

 modules/gdscript/gdscript.cpp:580 - Method/Function Failed, returning: ERR_PARSE_ERROR
 res://addons/aseprite_importer/interface/spritesheet_inspector/SpritesheetInspector.gd:62 - Invalid set index 'texture' (on base: 'Container (SpritesheetView.gd)') with value of type 'Nil'.

Say I have a 3 frame pingpong animation, the way it would play in aseprite is: 1 2 3 2 1 2 3 2 1

But the way the importer will play the animation, if you turn on looping, is: 1 2 3 3 2 1 1 2 3 3 2 1

When importing the pingpong animation, it seems as though you just take the animation, duplicate it, then reverse and append it. The way to fix this should just be to do that, but without duplicating the first and last frame.

If you tag a frame twice to create a sub animation, the importer uses the wrong frames.

The workaround is to duplicate the frames and use the "Merge duplicates" option when exporting.

Fantastic Plugin BTW!
