I am fairly new to tiled and have been using it for a while. Currently I am in need of animated tiles in my tiled scene, Icame across [this](https://github.com/bjorn/tiled/issues/57) thread which was discussing the addition of animated tiles in Tiled. I wanted to know if that feature is available now. I am currently using Cocos2dx.

Tiled now has a simple linear animation editor built in:

You can specifiy the time a frame should be displayed and the order of frames basically.

Though I cannot tell you wether Cocos2dx supports this rather new feature…

The question is whether cocos2d-x supports tile animations, or at least reads the animation data from TMX. Last time I checked it didn’t.
