### Animation Configuration with HasProperties (Lua)

Source: https://context7.com/wrello/animations/llms.txt

This example shows how to use the 'HasProperties' utility within the AnimationIds module to define animations with specific properties such as priority, looping behavior, and start speed. It also demonstrates how to access and apply these configured properties when playing animations.

```lua
-- Inside ReplicatedStorage.Animations.Deps.AnimationIds
local AnimationIdsUtil = require(script.Parent.Parent.Package.Util.AnimationIdsUtil)
local HasProperties = AnimationIdsUtil.HasProperties

local AnimationIds = {
    Player = {
        -- Simple animation without properties
        Jump = 656117878,

        -- Animation with priority set
        Dodge = HasProperties(7891234, {
            Priority = Enum.AnimationPriority.Action,
            Looped = false
        }),

        Sword = {
            -- Multiple animations with shared properties
            AttackCombo = HasProperties({
                [1] = 3456781,
                [2] = 3456782,
                [3] = 3456783
            }, {
                Priority = Enum.AnimationPriority.Action,
                MarkerTimes = true,  -- Enable marker time support
                StartSpeed = 1.2     -- Auto-set playback speed
            }),

            -- Special attack with custom start speed
            SpecialAttack = HasProperties(4567890, {
                Priority = Enum.AnimationPriority.Action4,
                Looped = false,
                StartSpeed = 0.8,
                MarkerTimes = true
            })
        }
    }
}

return AnimationIds

-- Using the configured animations in code
-- In a ServerScript
local Animations = require(game.ReplicatedStorage.Animations.Package.AnimationsServer)

Animations:Init({AutoLoadAllPlayerTracks = true})

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
    player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function()
        Animations:AwaitAllTracksLoaded(player)

        -- Get the configured start speed
        local startSpeed = Animations:GetTrackStartSpeed(player, "Sword.SpecialAttack")
        print("Special attack start speed:", startSpeed)  -- 0.8

        -- Play animation (StartSpeed is automatically applied)
        Animations:PlayTrack(player, "Sword.SpecialAttack")
    end)
end)

```

### Using Reusable Animation Profiles (Lua)

Source: https://context7.com/wrello/animations/llms.txt

This example shows how to create and apply reusable animation profiles for consistent character customization across different situations. It defines a 'NinjaProfile' in a ModuleScript and applies it in a server script using the AnimationsServer module. It also demonstrates how to get the current profile name and switch profiles dynamically.

```lua
-- In ReplicatedStorage.Animations.Deps.NinjaProfile (ModuleScript)
local NinjaProfile = {
    [Enum.HumanoidRigType.R15] = {
        jump = 656117878,
        run = 616163682,
        idle = {
            Animation1 = 656117400,
            Animation2 = 656118341
        }
    }
}
return NinjaProfile

-- In a ServerScript
local Animations = require(game.ReplicatedStorage.Animations.Package.AnimationsServer)

Animations:Init()

local function applyNinjaProfile(player)
    task.wait(1)

    -- Apply the profile by name
    Animations:ApplyAnimationProfile(player, "NinjaProfile")

    -- Get the currently applied profile name
    local profileName = Animations:GetAppliedProfileName(player)
    print("Current profile:", profileName)  -- "NinjaProfile"

    -- Apply different profile for different situations
    if player:GetRankInGroup(123456) >= 100 then
        Animations:ApplyAnimationProfile(player, "VIPProfile")
    endend

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
    player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function()
        applyNinjaProfile(player)
    end)
end)

```

### Get and Manage Animation Tracks (LocalScript Lua)

Source: https://context7.com/wrello/animations/llms.txt

This client-side snippet shows how to retrieve animation track objects for detailed control and monitoring. It covers getting specific tracks, modifying their properties (e.g., Looped, Priority), connecting to track events like 'Stopped', and playing them. It also demonstrates getting nested tracks, checking if an animation is playing on a specific rig, and waiting for an animation to start with a timeout. Dependencies include the `AnimationsClient` module from `game.ReplicatedStorage.Animations.Package.AnimationsClient`.

```lua
-- In a LocalScript
local Animations = require(game.ReplicatedStorage.Animations.Package.AnimationsClient)

Animations:Init({AutoLoadAllPlayerTracks = true})
Animations:AwaitAllTracksLoaded()

-- Get animation track reference
local jumpTrack = Animations:GetTrack("Jump")
if jumpTrack then
    jumpTrack.Looped = false
    jumpTrack.Priority = Enum.AnimationPriority.Action

    -- Connect to track events
    jumpTrack.Stopped:Connect(function()
        print("Jump animation finished")
    end)

    jumpTrack:Play()
end

-- Get nested track
local swordAttack = Animations:GetTrack({"Sword", "AttackCombo", 1})
if swordAttack then
    print("Track length:", swordAttack.Length)
    print("Is playing:", swordAttack.IsPlaying)
end

-- Check for playing animations on a rig
local enemyCharacter = workspace:WaitForChild("Enemy")
local blockingTrack = Animations:FindFirstRigPlayingTrack(enemyCharacter, "Blocking")
if blockingTrack then
    print("Enemy is blocking!")
end

-- Wait for an animation to start playing with timeout
local attackTrack = Animations:WaitForRigPlayingTrack(enemyCharacter, "Attack", 2)
if attackTrack then
    print("Enemy started attacking!")
else
    print("Timeout: Enemy didn't attack within 2 seconds")
end

```

### Initialize AnimationsServer for Roblox

Source: https://context7.com/wrello/animations/llms.txt

Initializes the server-side animations module. It takes an optional configuration table to control features like automatic track loading, debug printing, and custom animation ID application. This function is typically called once when the server starts.

```lua
-- In a ServerScript
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local Animations = require(game.ReplicatedStorage.Animations.Package.AnimationsServer)

-- Initialize with options
Animations:Init({
    AutoLoadAllPlayerTracks = true,  -- Automatically load all player animations on spawn
    TimeToLoadPrints = true,          -- Print loading time information
    EnableAutoCustomRBXAnimationIds = false,  -- Apply custom Roblox animation IDs
    AnimatedObjectsDebugMode = false  -- Enable debug prints for animated objects
})

-- Handle player joining
local function onPlayerAdded(player)
    Animations:AwaitAllTracksLoaded(player)
    print("Finished loading animations for", player.Name)
end

for _, player in ipairs(Players:GetPlayers()) do
    task.spawn(onPlayerAdded, player)
end

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(onPlayerAdded)

```

--------------------------------

### Monitor Animation Pre-loading Progress (Roblox Lua)

Source: https://context7.com/wrello/animations/llms.txt

This snippet shows how to monitor the progress of animation pre-loading using ContentProvider. It connects to the `PreloadAsyncProgressed` signal to receive updates on the loading status and provides examples for both server-side and client-side monitoring. The `AwaitPreloadAsyncFinished` function can be used to wait until all animations are loaded.

```lua
-- In a ServerScript
local Animations = require(game.ReplicatedStorage.Animations.Package.AnimationsServer)

-- Connect to progress signal before initialization
local loadedCount = 0
Animations.PreloadAsyncProgressed:Connect(function(n, total, loadedAnimInstance)
    loadedCount = n
    print(string.format("Pre-loading: %d/%d (%.1f%%)", n, total, (n/total)*100))
    print("Loaded:", loadedAnimInstance:GetFullName())
end)

-- Initialize (this will trigger pre-loading)
Animations:Init({TimeToLoadPrints = true})

-- Wait for all animations to be pre-loaded
local allLoadedInstances = Animations:AwaitPreloadAsyncFinished()
print("Pre-loading complete! Loaded", #allLoadedInstances, "animations")

-- In a LocalScript (client-side monitoring)
local AnimationsClient = require(game.ReplicatedStorage.Animations.Package.AnimationsClient)

local progressBar = script.Parent.LoadingBar

AnimationsClient.PreloadAsyncProgressed:Connect(function(n, total, loadedAnimInstance)
    progressBar.Size = UDim2.new(n/total, 0, 1, 0)
    progressBar.Text = string.format("%d/%d", n, total)
end)

AnimationsClient:Init()

local loadedAnims = AnimationsClient:AwaitPreloadAsyncFinished()
print("Client finished pre-loading", #loadedAnims, "animations")
progressBar.Text = "Complete!"

```

--------------------------------

### Get Animation ID Strings (Roblox Lua)

Source: https://context7.com/wrello/animations/llms.txt

This snippet demonstrates how to retrieve asset ID strings for animations defined in the AnimationIds module. It works on both server and client scripts and allows fetching IDs by rig type and animation path, including nested animations. The retrieved ID strings can be used to create Animation instances or for custom logic like getting marker times.

```lua
-- In a ServerScript or LocalScript
local Animations = require(game.ReplicatedStorage.Animations.Package.AnimationsServer)

Animations:Init()

-- Get animation ID string by rig type and path
local jumpAnimId = Animations:GetAnimationIdString("Player", "Jump")
print(jumpAnimId)  -- "rbxassetid://656117878"

-- Get nested animation ID
local swordAttackId = Animations:GetAnimationIdString("Player", "Sword.AttackCombo.1")
print(swordAttackId)  -- "rbxassetid://3456781"

-- Get animation ID for custom rig type
local monsterAttackId = Animations:GetAnimationIdString("BigMonster", "Attack")
print(monsterAttackId)  -- "rbxassetid://4567890"

-- Use the ID string for custom purposes
local animInstance = Instance.new("Animation")
animInstance.AnimationId = jumpAnimId

-- Can be used with GetTimeOfMarker
local attackAnimId = Animations:GetAnimationIdString("Player", "Sword.Attack")
local markerTime = Animations:GetTimeOfMarker(attackAnimId, "HitStart")
print("Hit starts at:", markerTime)

```

### Applying Custom Roblox Animation IDs (Lua)

Source: https://context7.com/wrello/animations/llms.txt

This script shows how to override default Roblox character animations (like jump, run, idle) with custom animation IDs. It supports different rig types (R15 and R6) and can apply multiple idle animations. The AnimationsServer module is required.

```lua
-- In a ServerScript
local Animations = require(game.ReplicatedStorage.Animations.Package.AnimationsServer)

Animations:Init()

local function applyCustomCharacterAnimations(player)
    task.wait(1)  -- Wait for character to fully load

    -- Define custom animation IDs for different rig types
    Animations:ApplyCustomRBXAnimationIds(player, {
        [Enum.HumanoidRigType.R15] = {
            jump = 656117878,      -- Ninja jump animation
            run = 616163682,       -- Ninja run animation
            idle = {
                Animation1 = 656117400,  -- Ninja idle 1
                Animation2 = 656118341   -- Ninja idle 2
            },
            walk = 656121766,
            fall = 656115606,
            swim = 656119721,
            swimIdle = 656118877,
            climb = 656114359
        },
        [Enum.HumanoidRigType.R6] = {
            walk = 5432198,  -- R6 uses walk instead of run
            jump = 5432199
        }
    })

    print("Applied custom animations for", player.Name)
end

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
    player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function()
        applyCustomCharacterAnimations(player)
    end)
end)

### Configure AnimationIds Module for Roblox

Source: https://context7.com/wrello/animations/llms.txt

Defines animation IDs for different rig types in a structured manner, supporting simple IDs, nested paths for directional or sequential animations, and organization by weapon types. This configuration is crucial for the Animations module to map actions to specific animation assets.

```lua
-- Inside ReplicatedStorage.Animations.Deps.AnimationIds
local AnimationIds = {
    Player = {  -- Rig type for player characters
        -- Simple animation ID
        Jump = 656117878,

        -- Nested animation paths
        Dodge = {
            [Enum.KeyCode.W] = 1234567,
            [Enum.KeyCode.S] = 1234568,
            [Enum.KeyCode.A] = 1234569,
            [Enum.KeyCode.D] = 1234570,
        },

        -- Weapon animations
        Sword = {
            Walk = 2345678,
            Run = 2345679,
            Idle = 2345680,
            AttackCombo = {
                [1] = 3456781,
                [2] = 3456782,
                [3] = 3456783
            }
        }
    },

    -- Custom rig types for NPCs
    BigMonster = {
        Attack = 4567890,
        Walk = 4567891,
        Idle = 4567892
    }
}

return AnimationIds

### Retrieve Animation Marker Timestamps (Lua)

Source: https://context7.com/wrello/animations/llms.txt

This snippet shows how to configure animations to support marker times and retrieve specific marker timestamps from playing animation tracks. It's useful for synchronizing gameplay events like hit detection or effects with animation events. Ensure MarkerTimes is set to true in AnimationIds configuration.

```lua
-- First, configure animations with MarkerTimes in AnimationIds
-- Inside ReplicatedStorage.Animations.Deps.AnimationIds
local HasProperties = require(script.Parent.Parent.Package.Util.AnimationIdsUtil).HasProperties

local AnimationIds = {
    Player = {
        Sword = {
            Attack = HasProperties(1234567, {
                Priority = Enum.AnimationPriority.Action,
                MarkerTimes = true  -- Enable marker support
            })
        }
    }
}

return AnimationIds

-- In a ServerScript
local Animations = require(game.ReplicatedStorage.Animations.Package.AnimationsServer)

Animations:Init({AutoLoadAllPlayerTracks = true})

local function handleSwordAttack(player)
    Animations:AwaitAllTracksLoaded(player)

    -- Play the attack animation
    local attackTrack = Animations:PlayTrack(player, "Sword.Attack")

    -- Get time of specific marker in the animation
    local hitStartTime = Animations:GetTimeOfMarker(attackTrack, "HitStart")
    local hitEndTime = Animations:GetTimeOfMarker(attackTrack, "HitEnd")

    if hitStartTime then
        print("Hit detection starts at:", hitStartTime, "seconds")

        -- Schedule hit detection at marker time
        task.delay(hitStartTime, function()
            print("Checking for hits...")
            -- Perform hit detection logic
        end)
    end

    -- Alternative: Get marker time using animation ID string
    local animIdStr = Animations:GetAnimationIdString("Player", "Sword.Attack")
    local impactTime = Animations:GetTimeOfMarker(animIdStr, "Impact")

    if impactTime then
        task.delay(impactTime, function()
            print("Impact effect at", impactTime)
            -- Play impact effects
        end)
    end
end

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
    player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function()
        task.wait(2)
        handleSwordAttack(player)
    end)
end)
