-Now that we have the 3 frames created for the walk [[animation]], click the "Add Animation" button ({{:wiki:add.png?nolink|}}) on the [[animation]] toolbar and define its settings as shown below. The walk [[animation]] will use the Ping Pong type instead of Loop like the idle [[animation]] used. With the Ping Pong type, the frames will be played in order, then reversed back to the start frame, and so on. In this case, the sequence of frames would be 3, 4, 5, 4, 3, 4, 5, etc.

 =====Tweaking and Testing the Animations======
-After you've defined [[animation|animations]] in the Voxel Editor, if you are unhappy with the playback speed and how it appears in-game, you can adjust it from the [[Model Properties]] panel on the left. Expanding an [[animation]] in the list will display its settings, most of which can be edited. You can tweak the speed as an [[animation]] is playing to see the effect in real-time.
