Pretty cool Console Animations

[Ally]

I wrote a small set of a few classes to help with drawing animations within the console in C#. The thing is, with animations, is they have to be designed, which results in some pretty nasty code snippets (https://open.sevr.org/paste.php?id=13). The way I facilitate this is through Base64. So I design the animations first, and convert the animation to a base64 string. This way you can store it in a variable or in Resources, without any hassles.

BASE64 EQUIVALENTS
https://open.sevr.org/paste.php?id=18 - this part is the initial loading when you see the trail comes in.
https://open.sevr.org/paste.php?id=19 - this part is the repeating loop animation you see after the trail comes in.

XP-Style Animation

Thanks! Got any ideas for some other animations? They can use any letters/numbers/whatever, so looking for creative ideas!

I mean, if you’re able to, do like a rolling ball or maybe a dice

These look pretty cool! Keep it up.

Thanks, definitely will do!

What about a ball bouncing?

What about a ball bouncing?

Yup, cornflakes suggested that before and I haven't gotten around to it. I'm going to have a crack at it now, before I go to sleep! :tup:

Must say, I'm super proud of this

https://sevr.org/i/82f1afe2-b2cd-44d5-83da-ccee5cd8aeed.mp4 <-- less slow

The base64 encoded version is insane, have a look: https://open.sevr.org/paste.php?id=15[DOUBLEPOST=1546959686][/DOUBLEPOST]

I'll likely try and do that when I get home tomorrow, thanks for the suggestion

Nice!
