Hey, I managed to get a single tile animated but when I click all tiles of a prop such as the flag and go to add it to the animation editor, it scrambles the prop / image in 20 different ways and animates it. I tried finding YouTube videos on how to do it properly, but I can't find anything. Do you know of any tutorial videos or what I am doing wrong so I can add the prop in it's correct formation? 

Sorry buddy but I didn't understand your question. What software are you referring to?

I am using the program Tiled and I am trying to get the animation files working from your assets. I am new to the program so I know I am doing it wrong lol. I managed to get the animated water working only when the animation reel is a single tile formation. When I try to get large assets bigger then a single tile to animate and I add them to the Tile Animation Editor it scrambles the image in different orders when its animated. Hopefully that makes more sense lol

Hello! Why are you trying to animate it if the asset is already setup? Is this just for learning Tiled? If I understood your question correctly, you are trying to animate several tiles using the same source tile. You have to select the tile you want to animate and add all frames and then close the animation editor, select the other tile you want from the tileset and repeat the process.

I never knew that, thank you for getting back to me. I see the file called "enemyflag1animation.png" how do I import it to have it animate? When add the files into my tileset I don't get the "animation" icon beside the list of animated tiles like I see in your tutorial videos. Not sure what I am doing wrong, sorry for bothering you. 

You have to create a tileset first (.tsx),  load the png and then do what I explained in my previous comment by selecting the tile from the tileset, open the animation editor and then add all frames. It's also helpful to open all my .tsx and example maps to see how things are done. To learn the software, you should also check their documentation (https://doc.mapeditor.org/en/stable/) and forums (https://discourse.mapeditor.org/). The software is easy once you get the workflow.
