Not OP, but I have to agree with them. The text just makes too much sense. There's no irrelevant shit tossed in for no reason, and I'm not really seeing any annoying LLM-isms.

Of course, I might be wrong.



i think its heavily edited, but there is a definite LLM influence

> the named animation sequence

noone abused verbs like this in the before times. a named animation sequence?? as opposed to what, ephemeral anonymous animation sequences?


I've totally written a phrase like this before.

And in this context, literally yes that's what it sounds like. The .ani file can contain multiple animation sequences that each have a name.


Maybe it's British English? I would use the wording like that. But I'm German. However, a "benannte Animationssequenz" is a perfectly valid construct in German, and doesn't sound weird at all given the context.

Uh, that would be a reference to the text at the beginning of that section

> Anything that moves is stored in an .ani file which is a sprite sheet and named animation sequences.


Yeah they could be indexed rather than named what's supposed to be the problem here

I think it's funny when people show poor knowledge of English grammar and confidently label their own exposure gap as a flaw.

Maybe it's a bit stuffy or formal, but yes, "the named sequence" is 100% something a real English speaking human would write. And if it's a sequence of frames forming an animation, it can absolutely be a named animation sequence.
