Summary

0000582: War Machine Factory : issue & discrepancy with the animations of the war machine cards

Description

1. When we click on the Purchase button for any of the machines, the Tent disappears from its card for a moment. It could be that it's because the animations get reset when that happens, but it's feels a bit weird. Maybe animations shouldn't get reset, or the Tent animation should have its reset point in a moment when it's up. Or we should simply implement their H3 animations (see next).

2. In H3 we had only the basic animations at War Machine Factory:
- Ballista shooting left, then center, then right, with breaks in between
- Tent not moving, just its flag fluttering
- Ammo Cart not moving at all
So their typical "in battle" animations. VCMI seems to give all their animations, including the one where they get destroyed. But do we really want that? When you go to a shop to buy sth, do they ever show you videos with how it'll look when it gets destroyed? :) But joke aside - I don't know - somehow having the animations of all of them getting destroyed, does not look like a very good "selling card" to me, plus it's not like in H3 anymore.
