 ====== Animations ======

 This articles talks about simple, single-p3d animations, where parts of a model rotate around an axis (like a car door, or a tank turret).
 Complex animations for soldier's movements for example are a different issue altogether...
 To create a model animations, these are the requirements:
 Create the movable object in the ResolutionLOD and give it a name.
 If the animation would affect the ( Fire) GeometryLOD, copy the selection into those LODs as well.
 In the MemoryLOD define the rotational axis via two vertexes. Select both of those points and give them a name.
 Still in the MemoryLOD create a single vertex (this will be the 'action point') and give it a name.
 In the Config.cpp for your model you need to define two classes: Animations & UserActions.
 The Animations class defines how the object moves, and the UserActions class defines when it moves.
 The following example is for an object that has been named 'door', which turns around an axis named 'door axis'. The 'action point' (the position the player has to be close to, in order to be able to activate this animation) is called 'doorbell'.
-<code>
+<code cpp>
 class Animations
 {
-  class MoveDoor
+	class MoveDoor
-  {
+	{
-    type="rotation"; // always "rotation"
+		type="rotation"; // always "rotation"
-    animPeriod=1; // how long it takes for the movevement to finish
+		animPeriod = 1; // how long it takes for the movevement to finish
-    selection="door"; // the name of the moving object
+		selection = "door"; // the name of the moving object
-    axis="door axis"; // the name of the axis
+		axis = "door axis"; // the name of the axis
-    angle0=0 // the start angle
+		angle0 = 0; // the start angle
-    angle1=-2.0; // the end angle, in radians (= degrees/57.3 = degrees * 180/π)
+		angle1 = -2; // the end angle, in radians (= degrees/57.3 = degrees * 180/?)
-  };
+	};
 };
