Unfortunately, we also have to rollback one of the core animations features. This decision allows us to better focus efforts of the Animation team on stabilizing other features. This is a bug and should be solved eventually (so that you can --export-debug or --export-release directly from a Git checkout without.godot folder).

The existing animation system in Godot was already one of the most powerful of any game engine, but its age was starting to show (it was written 10 years ago and barely improved). Animation editing was one of the first distinctive Godot features. All is done transparently by simply animating property states. A bit of history.

This bug is caused by poor support for the skeleton cached mode. _frameCache is only updated when the animation is reset.
