[x3d-public] Super simple animations?

[John Carlson]

Okay, here's what I've got with Event Utilies so far.  I'm guessing that
this isn't working because the Switch is not sending events to the
startTime field to the selected child, and stopTime to the other animations
in the Switch.  This is as far as I've gotten with my intuition, and not
doing a lot of repetitive coding.

DEF EverythingAnimation Group {
 children [
        DEF EverythingTimer TimeSensor { cycleInterval 10 loop TRUE enabled
TRUE } # set_bind "ToddlerView"
 ]
}

ROUTE Everything_Touch.touchTime TO StandTimer.stopTime
ROUTE Everything_Touch.touchTime TO PitchTimer.stopTime
ROUTE Everything_Touch.touchTime TO YawTimer.stopTime
ROUTE Everything_Touch.touchTime TO RollTimer.stopTime
ROUTE Everything_Touch.touchTime TO WalkTimer.stopTime
ROUTE Everything_Touch.touchTime TO KickTimer.stopTime
ROUTE Everything_Touch.touchTime TO StopTimer.stopTime
ROUTE Everything_Touch.touchTime TO RunTimer.stopTime
ROUTE Everything_Touch.touchTime TO JumpTimer.stopTime
ROUTE Everything_Touch.touchTime TO EverythingTimer.startTime

DEF mySequencer IntegerSequencer {
        key [ 0 0.9 1.1 2.23 4.3 5.5 6.3 7.3 8.5 8.6 10 ]  #
Leif_humanoid_root_TranslationInterpolator x 10
        keyValue [ 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 ]
}
DEF mySwitch Switch {
        whichChoice 0
        children [
                USE StandTimer
                USE PitchTimer
                USE YawTimer
                USE RollTimer
                USE WalkTimer
                USE RunTimer
                USE JumpTimer
                USE KickTimer
                USE StopTimer
                USE StandTimer  # repeat, here, TODO
                USE PitchTimer
        ]
}
ROUTE EverythingTimer.fraction_changed TO mySequencer.set_fraction
ROUTE mySequencer.value_changed TO mySwitch.whichChoice
