Sharing Animation Assets with Connections and Groups

robloxian trolley problem indeed

why not make public animations unplayable by the client

Playing animations on server would cause more lag, also the fact that the characters network ownership would cause latency between when server sends the animation to client and when the animation is played.

Pretty hard to verify everything without latency. Let hope Aurora Script can help with this type or issue.

We can finally migrate our games experiences to groups communities without having to reupload over 1000 animations :face_holding_back_tears:

I’m glad you decided to let us revoke animation permissions, that’s not how it was originally. good stuff

Would be even better if we could bulk share. I work with a lot of animations and it would be great if we could share multiple animations at a time, or allow connections/groups/games to use all animations from you or one of your groups.

roblox could implement a “grant permission” feature like what they did with audios with the only difference being that you don’t have to be the owner of the animation to grant permission. the idea is that only the animations you allow can be played in your game.

A good way to make this update better is to scrap all of the changes, restore everything back to how it was before and now distributing animations is 10x easier because you can hand someone the animations and they can just spoof it via a plugin and upload it as their own animation to reuse whenever they need to

so i can join group spearhead to make Spearhead Combat System working just like plug to play?

Can we make it so you could do it in mass so select a group of animations and let all of them be accessed by a group? That would be very cool

Thank you so much for working on this feature! We’ve had to transfer HUNDREDS of animations over the past few years between groups. This is such a life saver.
