sprite.setScale

sprite.setScale sets Scale on a sprite object. It takes id, sx and sy.

sprite.setScale(id, sx, sy)

function start() {  const id = sprite.create('/sprites/hero.png', 100, 120);  sprite.setScale(id, 1, 1);}

sprite.create is there to give the call something to act on; sprite.setScale is the line that matters. The code sits in start(), which the engine calls once, when the entity spawns.
