    How would I change the sprite frame when an entity is on or below a set value of health? Such as when a building is on low health, it changes frames to a broken down one.

    Below I have detailed a basic way to do it, I would recommend looking at "GenericHit.as" for a better understanding/way to make it work for you and the functionality you have envisioned.

    Code:
    // Whatever header would be most appropriate for your situation

if (this.getHealth() < 1)
{
     CSprite@ sprite = this.getSprite(); // This isn't necessary if you're using a CSprite header
     sprite.SetFrame(1); // Insert the frame you want here
}

    By the way, comments are '#' not '//' :D

    Also, it glitches out, because it goes to that sprite frame then goes back to the one in the default loop.

    FYI, comments aren't always '#', that's just in the one case that you've been considering (probably cfg's right?). In KAG's Angelscript files, as with many other programming languages, comments are implied with double forward slashes '//' or for multiple lines with /* to open and */ to close.

    Oh, I see, but when I got rid of the comments, the game stopped glitching, with it the entity glitched.

    When ever it's down on low health, the sprite glitches out and switches back to the default_loop animation. D: help pls?
