AnimationPlayer edge cases

Recipes moved out of SKILL.md body. Read only when debugging.

Animation not playing

if not player.has_animation(anim_name):
    push_error("Missing animation: %s" % anim_name)
    return
player.play(anim_name)

Prefer const / StringName animation ids to avoid silent typos.

Method track not firing

• Confirm track path points at the node that owns the method.
• Set call mode to DISCRETE (not CONTINUOUS).
• Method must exist and match keyed name/args.

Seek without visual/physics update

player.seek(t, true)  # update=true for same-frame property reads

Looped clips and finished signals

animation_finished does not fire for looping animations — use animation_looped or inspect current_animation.

Library swap while playing

Stop the player (or await finished) before mutating / replacing an AnimationLibrary.
