Configuring Motion Presets

Any animation markers created in Jump will appear as entries in the Motions panel. Selecting a Motion preset will allow you to configure it in the Inspector. Motion presets can be created, deleted and duplicated via the Motion menu at the top of the Asset Viewer.

Parameter	Description
Motion Mode	This defines the kind of motion represented. As well as a bunch of presets you can define your own using the edit button (pencil). This value will be used when resolving the animation for the current asset state.
Facing	This identifies the orientation primarily represented by this motion (if applicable). For example, Left/Right/In/Out.
Travel	This is a convenience value which describes a nominal velocity to this motion. If non-zero it will animated the background of the preview window to visually indicate speed and the value is also available to scripts to use as an actual velocity for character movement if desired.
Source Animation	This is the name of the original animation marker used by this motion.
Phase	This is a value to adjust the phase of looping animations, but can also be used to scrub to a particular frame in an animation if speed is reduced to zero (basically allowing for a static pose to be selected).
Speed	Controls playback speed of animation, can also be set to negative in order to play animations backwards.
Loop	Determines whether animation will be played once, looped continuously, or ping-pong continuously Motion Transform Buttons - these allow manipulation of the transform for this motion preset.
Flip X/Flip Y	Flips this asset horizontally or vertically.
-45°/+45°	Rotates the asset 45 degrees about the origin.
Xcog/Ycog	Adjusts the asset origin to align with its 2D center of gravity (effectively determined as the average center of all non transparent pixels).
Reset	Resets all transforms specific to this motion.

With these adjustments it is possible to take a single animation and reuse it in various ways (e.g. by changing its speed or flipping it horizontally).
