To set it to 0, currently you have to stop the animation with the ChangeAnimationDirection function. Put this in the tile's create actor.
Code: Select all
ChangeAnimationDirection("Event Actor", STOPPED);

But since you want to use the tile editor built into gE like that tutorial, you don't need to set it to 0. Just add the animation and click [Tile].

No need to double click. Just select the tile you want via the keyboard, and click to place a tile. To drag around, you'll need to press left shift, that way it tries to lock them together.
