Animation editor

[Biyfrind]

The animation editor would be like adobe animate, but with a few different things

To put a character on the animation, you have 2 options

1. Import an .fla file
2. Import an spritesheet and name each part manualy

You can also import an background by importing an .png or .jpeg image

In the anim editor, you can config the "start song smooth out" wich is the animation that will play after the song starts (like the old version of the tankman cutscenes)

When ur done with the animation, you can export it as an .fnfa (Friday night funkin animation) that is an animation format that smooths out on the start of the song after the anim ends, as an .fla or as an .mp4

Opitional things: .fla's will be supported to put as an cutscene, not only .mp4

What yall think of this idea?

Importing FLAs isn’t possible without knowing what Adobe used for it. (Aka the specifications for it)

Well, like the other commenter said, there's probably zero chance that we'd get anything with an FLA import, but this gave me an idea for something more doable.
This theoretical cutscene editor could still be possible with just sprite sheet imports if the sprite sheets already had all the animations for the cutscene on them and if the animations were triggered by some sort of event system. What I'm imagining is kind of comparable to that Nickelodeon movie maker program, where each animation, movement, and sound are tied to events on a timeline. There could also probably be a kind of event that could run code if none of the preset event types work for what the user wants.

what an .fla file looks like inside btw. i dont think it'd be worth figuring the format out and adding a way to import the file rlly
