Flags have waving animations?

[CassalettIV]

This is something I noticed after giving the world map previews another look. The three of them seemed to be taken on the same game, with France as selected nation. If you take a closer look you can see that the flag wrinkles are different in each picture. This makes me think that flags have a waving animation on the main UI.

Confirmation from devs? This is a really neat detail.

Yes, they do. If you take several of the screenshots and switch between them*, you'll see the flag is moving. It makes me wonder what file type the flags will be in (which I've asked here before, but I had no response); I hope it'll be easily moddable...

EDIT: this is the post, where I also show that the flag is animated: https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/threads/a-technical-question-about-the-flags.1475415/

*ANOTHER EDIT: which is exactly what you did, oh well. It seems quite obvious that these different positions are frames of animation, though.

Hope you get an answer this time, if this gets visibility
