Question by GoldenDevilGamer · Dec 13, 2015 at 04:01 PM · animation prefab object 2d-platformer switch

How you use prefabs in an animation?

I'm new to Unity and I'm making a 2D platformer where you can switch between melee weapons. I made prefabs of each of the images I want to animate so I can animate both my parent object (the character) and it's child object (a sword) at the same time. The problem is, I can't add prefabs to the animation window. How do I get around this problem?
