Date dependent animations

With version 332 you will be able to show an animation only on a specific date (range). For example, if we want to show an animation with id $animationblinkingredlight3x3 (this one is built-in into the game) only on 2nd, 3rd and 4th december. Then we might add this code to our building/road plugin:
Code: Select all
"animation":[
{
"id":"$animationblinkingredlight3x3","x":15,"y":-1,
"date":{
"start day":2,
"start month":12,
"days":3
}
}
],
If you want the animation on multiple date ranges with gaps in between you may provide multiple animation spots, each for a single date range.

Can you lock animation for the amout of time you set?

No, you cannot lock the animation, but you might do something similar by having to animations, a static and a non-static one. By switching between these two dependent on date you might create a similar effect.
You can also do it weekly or monthly by using
repeat:
Code: Select all
"animation":[
{
"id":"$animationblinkingredlight3x3","x":15,"y":-1,
"date":{
"start day":2,
"days":3,
"repeat":"weekly"
}
}
],
Valid arguments for repeat are
yearly,
monthly and
weekly.
If you want to set an amount of days until it should repeat you can use
days total:
Code: Select all
"animation":[
{
"id":"$animationblinkingredlight3x3","x":15,"y":-1,
"date":{
"start day":1,
"days":1,
"days total":2
}
}
],
This example only shows the animation any second day.

So, I could make a rocket fly up on December 1st, and I could make it come back on the 31st of December? I'm making a new plugin. But, I need to make two animations, one for leaving, and one for landing, and I'm thinking of using the other type of animation, like move x

If you want the animation on multiple date ranges with gaps in between you may provide multiple animation spots, each for a single date range.
But by doing this, will the plugin be animated on December 2, 3 and 4 in real life or on theotown?
