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.

::

    # This creates an animation that makes the node "Enemy" move to the right by
    # 100 pixels in 1 second.
    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)

Animations are just data containers, and must be added to nodes such as an :ref:`AnimationPlayer<class_AnimationPlayer>` or :ref:`AnimationTreePlayer<class_AnimationTreePlayer>` to be played back.
