Question

I am working on a game which requires an animated sprite (for walking) but it isn’t letting me upload my sprite into an AnimatedSprite2D node. Here’s the sprite in case it helps

create an animated sprite 2d, go to the right for the settings that says “Sprite Frames” click it, then add an animation via the Add frames from spritesheet option (after selecting the sprite a menu should appear where a default animation exists) then you can import your sprite and split it into frames, etc. hope this helps!

you dont drag the sprite itself—you create an empty instance and use your art as animation frames.
