Also anything you could do to speed up startup time would be much appreciated.
There is now an Animation Properties window, open it by rightclick on an animation. I haven't planned about Random Adder, but if it turns out simple I could implement it. I'm doing animations by calculating time offset, I guess JJ2 don't do this.
About startup-time I don't think I can do much more. Reading 100-200 tilesets just to get version and title is slow :P

From the JCS help:
Quote:
Random adder amplitude for frame wait
This value is used to make the wait between animation cycles semi-random. A random number in the range [-1..1] will be multiplied with the random adder amplitude value and added to the amount of frames to wait between cycles. So, if the amount of frames to wait is 10 and the random adder values is 4, the animating tile will wait anywhere between (10-4=) 6 and (10+4=) 14 frames after each animation cycle.
