Hi, so I have this project I'm working on, and here is the relevant code:

https://github.com/Rietty/Hellcraft/blob/master/Menu.hpp

The issue is that when I first start my application, the sprite shows up fully (aka all frames flash across the screen) before it goes to animation/frame cycling. Obviously this isn't something that should be happening and I'm a bit stumped to resolve it. I've tried moving various initialization calls around as well as having a Boolean check for when stuff is initialized however this does not seem to solve the problem.

What else can I try and is there something else I'm missing?

Currently it looks like this for the first second after loading:

When initializing your animation object, you're never setting the frameSize/textureRect. It gets set for the first time in update(), but update() will call it for the first time once some some time had passed to fullfil the condition if(m_currentTime >= m_frameTime).
