Animation Presets

Animation Presets are a collection of customizable animation behaviors. They can currently only be applied to NPC characters using the NPC Spawner. Each preset comes with a set of customizable properties that you can tweak to suit a character.

Animation Presets control how your character animates. If you want to extend this functionality, you can create your own Verse script and play one-time animations using the PlayAnimation API.
