Introduction
MovingThings is a plugin that allows the admins of a server to animate certain things. For example, you build a chimney, using this plugin you can animate the smoke so that it looks realistic.
But this example is just one of many possible things you can do with this plugin. Imagine entire towns slowly rising from the ground in a wonderful cinematic. All this is possible with a few easy commands.
This video shows a tutorial and some basic animations. I admit I am not the best builder so that is why they aren't really epic but you get the idea what this plugin is capable of.
A new video is in production
Commands + Permissions
Function: Shows all commands
Function: Adds the area you selected with your wand to the animation specified, it does this 'soft' this means it will directly read the frame when playing the animation. Editing the frame means editing the animation directly.
Function: Adds the area you selected with your wand to the animation specified, this time it does it 'hard' which means you can no longer made changes to the frame without removing it. This does mean you can safely edit or remove the build itself without changing the animation.
Function: allows the user to create an animation
Function: sets the location this animation should play at, this works the same as a regular clone command in minecraft, the frame will be pasted towards the Postive X and Positive Z.
Function: gives you the movingthings wand
Function: shows the list of all animations
Function: tps the user to the playlocation of the animation
Function: shows some general info about a certain animation.
Function: removes the frame from animation with the ID of ID
Function: removes the specified animation completely
Function: manually activates the animation specified, includes debug messages.
Function: Specifies whether or not the animation should repeat when finished, this function is disabled when there are no players nearby to minimalize lag, it will re-enable when there are though.
Function: Sets the time between animations in ticks, defaults to 10.
Function: Allows the user to enter 'timelapse' mode, this means it will add a frame of each block you place to the animation specified, this block is not relative to the playlocation so when playing the animation it will place blocks exactly like how you placed them allowing for some interesting things. Make sure you exit timelapse mode when you are finished or it will continue to add frames!
Function: allows you to load in one certain frame.
Function: sets the radius at which cycling animations will not cycle anymore, this means that when there are no players within this range, it will not cycle.
In short:
This plugin will continue to be updated and be given new features. If you purchase this plugin now you will be able to download all upcoming updates. As new updates come the price is likely to go up by a slight bit.
Suggestions are always welcome!
Command Triggers
This plugin supports one command for a command block which enables you to activate a certain animation by command block. Do this by inserting: "animation ANIMATIONNAME", this command will only run if the animation is not currently playing.

This is not a tutorial for this plugin but for the vanilla clone command, I just want you to see where to put the playlocation.
3. The playlocation is the same spot as shown in the video
