I have been having this issue with my entity, in that it doesn't show up if I add animations to it- if I comment the animation section, it shows up and renders fine, but won't once I add them back.
I have no clue why it is doing this, as I'm pretty sure my files are all in order.

📎 timer.entity.json 📎 timer.animation.json 📎 timer.render_controllers.json

From my experience an animation must either have "animation_length", "loop", or both defined

#

But the actual issue: your client entity is using the 1.8.0 format, which does not support "animate" in the scripts section

#

In this you can simply update it to version 1.10.0.

If it should remain on 1.8.0 though, then know that you must create and define an animation controller for the entity using the "animation_controllers" array.

"animation_controllers": [
  {
    "controller": "controller.animation.timer_animate"
  }
]

@tame cypress What do you think about trying to close completed questions?

#

There isn't any obvious way to know what's solved or not.

We could have users manually close them I think.

It's part of the posting guidelines, which unfortunately are really hard to read.
