Lio's Player Animator API
by Liopyu
Lio's Player Animator API is a library that lets server owners trigger player animations from the server side, built on Zigy's Player Animator API.
What it does
The library forks Zigy's playerAnimator API and modifies it to run animations on the server, which can be triggered through commands by a mod that uses AnimationJS. Players see the animations because both the server and every player need the library. Builds exist for Forge and NeoForge, for 1.19.2 and 1.20.1, and the 0.0.8 file targets 1.20.1.
