Can someone help me learn how to use an animation controller

Animation Circuits:

m
start the animation


pause the animation (stop in place)


stop the animation (stops it and returns the time to 0)


Sets the speed of the animation

How to customize the animation:


Opening the controller- Configure the animation controller object → scroll down → press “Animation Controls”

Creating An Animation—


Make an object



Use the connect tool to attach the object to the animation controller

Open the animation controller following the “Opening the controller” step


In the animation controller press “ADD” to add a new frame


Move and rotate the object how you would like


Now return to the animation controller and press “PLAY”


Finally you should see the object moving

That’s really helpful but when I tried to connect the object to the animation controller, it wouldn’t let me.

You have to select animation controller and click add to animation in dropdown menu, then select objects

Dropdown menu?

If you’re in Rooms2.0, you have to use select tool and the menu, but if you’re in legacy room, you can just wire object to the top part of animation controller

Yeah I was doing it in rooms 2, that was probably why
