Battle Poses
Introduction
Battle poses allow for a standard set of animations to be defined in a sprite sheet. These could include custom poses, such as being startled or surprised, injured, angry, and so forth.
Battle poses work solely off of offsets inside the spritesheet's frames. If spritesheets are different sizes, but follow the same overall frame layout when built, the animations should work.
Example: If one spritesheet is organized as 32x32 frames and another is organized as 32x48 frames, but they follow the same layout inside each spritesheet, the character animations will work the same.
