Your problem is that you are using the body_entered function, meaning it only gets called once, when the collider enters for the first time. I take it that you basically want that function to keep getting called while the player stays in the area.

Now, I don't know GDscript but I searched it up and a good fix seems to be to use a true/false that keeps track of whether or not the player is inside the area. Then repeatedly checking if it is true:

Make a new boolean called "touching_player" or something similar. Then use the body_entered and body_exit to set it true or false. Then, in the main loop, if touching_player is true then do the enter key stuff.

Is it possible to set up Visual Studio for Godot so that it can auto-fill some code and automatically re-format white space, similar to Unity?

Being able to break up code into the code regions looks incredibly useful, I finally won't have to scroll through lines and lines of my awful spaghetti code.

I apologize I actually do not use Godot much. But I was able to tinker around and figure out an easy way to achieve your goal about the sponsors.
Also, I am assuming when you say "box" that you mean "nodes." I only used the Node2D and the AnimatedSprite2D. Here is the step-by-step:

1. Create the root node for 2D scene (top left)
2. Add the AnimatedSprite2D by clicking on the + at the top left, you can search up "AnimatedSprite2D" and it should come up.
3. Notice the yellow warning sign next to it, it says that you need to set the frames.
4. Now go over to the inspector (far right)
   5.Click on "Animation" then click on the "Sprite Frames" and create a new SpriteFrames.
   6.Now on the bottom you may see the animation editor. If you don't see it, just click on SpriteFrames again to make it pop up.
   7.From here you can start dragging photos from your folders and into your game files (bottom left).
   8.Once you finish adding your slides, you can then drag those (from the game files) into the animation editor.
   9.You can configure the duration for each, make it autoplay, stop looping, etc.
   10.Press play to test it out!

I'm hoping this is what you are looking for, it requires no programming and is very simple.

@Punkgrin Thank you very much, I now understand the importance of GDScript a lot more. I will be attempting to learn it

I believe the other idle animations do not work because the "direction" variable is not being properly set. You want to play an idle animation whenever the velocity of x and y is 0. But then just above it, your code tries to set "direction" depending on the velocities that are greater/lesser than 0. Does my explanation make sense? Velocity cannot be 0 in order to set a direction but at the same time it must be 0 to play the idle animation.

The solution is to make a variable that keeps track of the direction/velocity only while the object is moving.
Make a new variable like "last_velocity," then keep setting it to velocity IF velocity is not 0 (in handleInput). Then, you could use last_velocity to set direction (in updateAnimation).

If you are only using images for each slide, then a simple method would be to use a variable (number) to keep track of which slide you're on. Make the picture change according to the variable. Finally, make it so the variable increases when a key is pressed, or perhaps you could put it on a timer to make it increase automatically.

I do not know any details about your plans, so feel free to write a response if you have any trouble or if I missed anything.
