Play Animation is an Animation Node used to play an Animation that can be used with Pause Animation and Stop Animation. Once an Animation is created in the Animation Editor Module, it can be selected in the file selector. A drop-down will appear that allows the user to choose an Animation Block. This will show up as a blue-colored input on the Play Animation Node.
