Animating Resource Parameters

Animate specific parameters (bones) of a resource to have parts of the resource move relative to it's other parts. Examples of this include rotating a tower crane, moving hoist cars, and more.

Follow along this video to learn how to set up animations for resource parameters. The video uses a (flat top) tower crane as an example, but the same methodology applies to other similar resources.
