night animation did not light up?

I'm not sure you can make night animation like that. As far as I know, the night animation needs a stand-alone code (so it needs its own id etc.) to then be linked by an attribute to the building's

It should look more or less ...Not exactly - it was not tested like this:

Code: Select all    Reset

[ 

{
"id": "$nightanimationtest",
"type": "animation",
"light": true,
"light switching": true,
"frames": [
{
"bmp": "Geceresmi.png",
"count": 1
}
],
"rotation aware": 
false}, 


{
"type": "commercial",
"id": "$Çamlıcatower",
"author": "Evanzer",
"frames": [
{
 "bmp": "Çamlıcatower.png"
 }
 ],
"width": 2,
"height": 2,
"animation": [{"id": "$nightanimationtest", "x":0,"y":-25}]
 }
]

...

If you look closely you see there is not one but two codes - The building's and the animation's, and at the bottom of the building's, there is the attribute "animation" (really important for the animation to work as it is a "link" between the two). Don't however try to split them in two .json files as they won't recognize each others.

Unfortunately I'm not certain that was your problem, I suppose this is what makes your animation not work.

Hope this is useful!
