I guess you can assign the length property of the Animation resource?
Not really cause i want it to increase it from undefined times, for undefined times. Not precise key. That is, my button pressed at a certain moment in time (it’s a day/night animation), will increase it of say, 2 hours. I cannot fix a key for that.
Unless set_length(+value) is doable?

length += some_value works too, however you mentionned day/night cycle so I don’t know if that’s really what you need.
You’ll have to explain better what you want to achieve, because it’s really vague.

Actually, i just want my button pressed to increase the length of the animationplayer. something like that:
if button_pressed:
animationplayer.length += 50
but that’s an invalid index ‘length’…

As I mentionned earlier, length is a property of Animation, not AnimationPlayer. The latter just plays the animation.
You could try this:
var anim = animationplayer.get_animation(animationplayer.current_animation)
anim.length += 50
Note: It will also remain with that length until you reset it, so you may want to keep the original value in a variable.
If that doesn’t work well, you could also try to pause the animation player instead and use a timer to count the extra time (because increasing length won’t add any keys, so will have same outcome as pausing for a period of time).

Sry,the best i could think of:
extends AnimationPlayer
onready var animationplayer = get_node("/root/Node2D/Timer/AnimationPlayer")
var anim = animationplayer.get_animation(animationplayer.current_animation)
func _on_Hunt_pressed():
anim.length += 50
AnimationPlayer conected by Hunt button, and i got ‘invalid get index ‘current_animation’ (on base nil)’ error. Then i don’t know. Maybe i’m still too low on godot skill to tackle that for now…

Don’t put this outside. It’s taking the current anim, and no anim plays yet when member variables are initialized.
Place it inside the function:
func _on_Hunt_pressed():
var anim = animationplayer.get_animation(animationplayer.current_animation)
anim.length += 50

‘The identifier ‘animationplayer’ isn’t declared in the current scope’ now…
Syl | 2020-02-26 01:18
Ok here is the entire script… I just moved anim in the function
extends AnimationPlayer
onready var animationplayer = get_node("/root/Node2D/Timer/AnimationPlayer")
func _on_Hunt_pressed():
var anim = animationplayer.get_animation(animationplayer.current_animation)
anim.length += 50

My bad, so sorry. I asked you to increase the animation length, when i wanted to increase the current second/position. That is, if the animation is at 30 sec when the button is pressed, it comes at 80…
I’m so sorry. :c
