playMove

Description

When used on a person, smooth transition to given move will be done.
The difference between playMove and playMoveNow is that playMove adds another move to the move queue, while playMoveNow replaces the whole move queue with new move (see Example 2).

Note

see Category:Moves for respective games animations.

Important

A transition is only possible if the current and provided animation nodes are connected to each other in config (via connectTo/From and interpolateTo/From). The connection can be indirect (using intermediate animations)
