	<description>
		An Animation resource contains data used to animate everything in the engine. Animations are divided into tracks, and each track must be linked to a node. The state of that node can be changed through time, by adding timed keys (events) to the track.
		[codeblocks]
		[gdscript]
		# This creates an animation that makes the node "Enemy" move to the right by
		# 100 pixels in 0.5 seconds.
		var animation = Animation.new()
		var track_index = animation.add_track(Animation.TYPE_VALUE)
		animation.track_set_path(track_index, "Enemy:position:x")
		animation.track_insert_key(track_index, 0.0, 0)
		animation.track_insert_key(track_index, 0.5, 100)
		[/gdscript]
		[csharp]
		// This creates an animation that makes the node "Enemy" move to the right by
		// 100 pixels in 0.5 seconds.
		var animation = new Animation();
		int trackIndex = animation.AddTrack(Animation.TrackType.Value);
		animation.TrackSetPath(trackIndex, "Enemy:position:x");
		animation.TrackInsertKey(trackIndex, 0.0f, 0);
		animation.TrackInsertKey(trackIndex, 0.5f, 100);
		[/csharp]
		[/codeblocks]
		Animations are just data containers, and must be added to nodes such as an [AnimationPlayer] to be played back. Animation tracks have different types, each with its own set of dedicated methods. Check [enum TrackType] to see available types.
		[b]Note:[/b] For 3D position/rotation/scale, using the dedicated [constant TYPE_POSITION_3D], [constant TYPE_ROTATION_3D] and [constant TYPE_SCALE_3D] track types instead of [constant TYPE_VALUE] is recommended for performance reasons.

				Compress the animation and all its tracks in-place. This will make [method track_is_compressed] return [code]true[/code] once called on this [Animation]. Compressed tracks require less memory to be played, and are designed to be used for complex 3D animations (such as cutscenes) imported from external 3D software. Compression is lossy, but the difference is usually not noticeable in real world conditions.
				[b]Note:[/b] Compressed tracks have various limitations (such as not being editable from the editor), so only use compressed animations if you actually need them.

		<member name="length" type="float" setter="set_length" getter="get_length" default="1.0">
			The total length of the animation (in seconds).
			[b]Note:[/b] Length is not delimited by the last key, as this one may be before or after the end to ensure correct interpolation and looping.
		</member>
		<member name="loop_mode" type="int" setter="set_loop_mode" getter="get_loop_mode" enum="Animation.LoopMode" default="0">
			Determines the behavior of both ends of the animation timeline during animation playback. This is used for correct interpolation of animation cycles, and for hinting the player that it must restart the animation.
		</member>
		<member name="step" type="float" setter="set_step" getter="get_step" default="0.1">
			The animation step value.

	<constants>
		<constant name="TYPE_VALUE" value="0" enum="TrackType">
			Value tracks set values in node properties, but only those which can be interpolated. For 3D position/rotation/scale, using the dedicated [constant TYPE_POSITION_3D], [constant TYPE_ROTATION_3D] and [constant TYPE_SCALE_3D] track types instead of [constant TYPE_VALUE] is recommended for performance reasons.
		</constant>
		<constant name="TYPE_POSITION_3D" value="1" enum="TrackType">
			3D position track (values are stored in [Vector3]s).
		</constant>
		<constant name="TYPE_ROTATION_3D" value="2" enum="TrackType">
			3D rotation track (values are stored in [Quaternion]s).
		</constant>
		<constant name="TYPE_SCALE_3D" value="3" enum="TrackType">
			3D scale track (values are stored in [Vector3]s).
		</constant>
		<constant name="TYPE_BLEND_SHAPE" value="4" enum="TrackType">
			Blend shape track.
		</constant>
		<constant name="TYPE_METHOD" value="5" enum="TrackType">
			Method tracks call functions with given arguments per key.
		</constant>
		<constant name="TYPE_BEZIER" value="6" enum="TrackType">
			Bezier tracks are used to interpolate a value using custom curves. They can also be used to animate sub-properties of vectors and colors (e.g. alpha value of a [Color]).
		</constant>
		<constant name="TYPE_AUDIO" value="7" enum="TrackType">
			Audio tracks are used to play an audio stream with either type of [AudioStreamPlayer]. The stream can be trimmed and previewed in the animation.
		</constant>
		<constant name="TYPE_ANIMATION" value="8" enum="TrackType">
			Animation tracks play animations in other [AnimationPlayer] nodes.
		</constant>
		<constant name="INTERPOLATION_NEAREST" value="0" enum="InterpolationType">
			No interpolation (nearest value).
		</constant>
		<constant name="INTERPOLATION_LINEAR" value="1" enum="InterpolationType">
			Linear interpolation.
		</constant>
		<constant name="INTERPOLATION_CUBIC" value="2" enum="InterpolationType">
			Cubic interpolation. This looks smoother than linear interpolation, but is more expensive to interpolate. Stick to [constant INTERPOLATION_LINEAR] for complex 3D animations imported from external software, even if it requires using a higher animation framerate in return.
		</constant>
		<constant name="INTERPOLATION_LINEAR_ANGLE" value="3" enum="InterpolationType">
			Linear interpolation with shortest path rotation.
			[b]Note:[/b] The result value is always normalized and may not match the key value.
		</constant>
		<constant name="INTERPOLATION_CUBIC_ANGLE" value="4" enum="InterpolationType">
			Cubic interpolation with shortest path rotation.
			[b]Note:[/b] The result value is always normalized and may not match the key value.
		</constant>
		<constant name="UPDATE_CONTINUOUS" value="0" enum="UpdateMode">
			Update between keyframes.
		</constant>
		<constant name="UPDATE_DISCRETE" value="1" enum="UpdateMode">
			Update at the keyframes and hold the value.
		</constant>
		<constant name="UPDATE_TRIGGER" value="2" enum="UpdateMode">
			Update at the keyframes.
		</constant>
		<constant name="UPDATE_CAPTURE" value="3" enum="UpdateMode">
			Same as linear interpolation, but also interpolates from the current value (i.e. dynamically at runtime) if the first key isn't at 0 seconds.
		</constant>
		<constant name="LOOP_NONE" value="0" enum="LoopMode">
			At both ends of the animation, the animation will stop playing.
		</constant>
		<constant name="LOOP_LINEAR" value="1" enum="LoopMode">
			At both ends of the animation, the animation will be repeated without changing the playback direction.
		</constant>
		<constant name="LOOP_PINGPONG" value="2" enum="LoopMode">
			Repeats playback and reverse playback at both ends of the animation.
		</constant>
