Easy Animation Tool

Description
A tool that allows easy animation playback for all entities that have animations. This will not work on Left 4 Dead 1 and 2, Portal 2, CS:GO models, it's a problem with Garry's Mod, not this mod.

Please note that not all models have animations. This tool only shows you animations that the models have.

Information / Usage notes
A lot of useless NPC animations, like gestures, postures and all those T-pose animations, are excluded by default. There is an option to disable this.

Animations on NPCs: You must disable NPC thinking before trying to play an animation, because while thinking is enabled, NPCs will always reset any custom animations you try to play.

Animations on ragdolls: By default ragdolls are impossible to animate, because the physics engine kind of animates them. So as a workaround, I added a "Make Animatable" property for all ragdolls. If will disable physics, but will enable animations.

Animations on props: For some reason, props reset their animations. So as a workaround, I added a "Make Animatable" property for all props as well. If will disable physics, but will enable animations.

Disabling NPC Thinking: Hold C, press "NPCs" button in the menu at the top and select "Disable NPC Thinking".

Hiding the Bounding Boxes for the entire server Set rb655_easy_animation_nobbox_sv to 1 to hide the white boxes for everyone on the server.

Playing series of animations
You can play several animations one by one with this tool. For this you will need to select first entity, click on desired animation, configure animation options and press the Add current selection button. Do this as many times as needed. You can also add timed animations for same entity. Once you have all the animations added to the list, left click anywhere and all the animations should be played.
NOTICE: You cannot play 2 or more animations on the same entity at once!

Notice about "Add more animations" and "This animation is buggy": I DIDN'T make these animations nor I can or will add more animations. This tool gives you every animation for every model if it has any. This fully depends on the model.

@fandybejo This is a completely separate tool to play animations on ragdolls and NPCs, that's it.

@邪魅霸天 This addon shouldn't do that, are you sure this problem is caused by this addon?

Why this tool causes the ragdolls' physical parts and items shaking itself?

@stick It's easy to use this tool: make sure "disable thinking" is enabled for NPCs (or else they won't stay in the selected animation), spawn the NPC you want, shoot it with this tool via right click, hold "C" and select animation from the list at the right side of the screen.

how do you use this

@Manchild#6 When you use this too on an NPC you can only use the animations listed by this tool, also, if you not activate "disable thinking" for NPCs they will return to what they're doing instead of the selected animation.
