Animation Code Explanation

In the MainMenuDisplay class, we have a method called AmendAnimation(). This method is responsible for animating the main menu screen. Here's a breakdown of how it works:

• frame is a variable that keeps track of the current animation frame.
• MainMenuScreen.MountedFrames is the total number of frames in the animation.
• transitionFrames is an object that represents the animation frame being displayed.
• lastFrameTime stores the time when the last frame was updated.

AmendAnimation()

This method is called to update the animation frame. It does the following:

1. Checks if the current frame is less than the total number of frames.
2. If yes, it updates transitionFrames with the next frame's texture.
3. Sets the dimensions of transitionFrames to match the screen size.
4. Advances the frame counter and updates lastFrameTime.
5. If all frames have been shown, it resets frame to 1.
