Allow animations to be additive

Here is an example of what I am talking about:

Hope to see this in Roblox!

Huge support for this. Tired of using my own clunky system for something that should be built in to Roblox.

Really hope this becomes something that ROBLOX developers can use in the future; it’d save a lot of time for scripters. and animators. Huge support.

Support! Currently I am trying to get Roblox IK and animations to play nicely, and I think that additive animations would be perfect for this.

Edit: Now that I think about it, in my case it makes more sense for there to be an additive option for IK, not animations… but I still support this cool feature request!

I’m in favor of additive animations as well. I’m sick of my character floating in the air when I pull out my minigun and then begin crouching.
