RRP COMMANDS
These commands trigger a single or looped animation to support photos and videos for players and content creators.
This occurs server-side, so triggered animations will be seen by all players unless it is a custom animation (pack required).
Looped animations (∞) play continuously until the command is repeated, all others will play one time then stop.
Single animations triggered during a looped animation will play once, then return to the original looped animation.
Animations are visual only and will not have any effects such as damage from bucking or biting.

Assigning Keys
Keys do NOT stack - you need all the keys relevant to the desired keys (ie Admin does not inherit the commands of Mod).
As shown in the above sections, some SWEM commands are linked to a role 'key' to prevent misuse of some non-survival friendly commands on servers. Please read the below information carefully:
- Singleplayer (SP): All keys can be assigned via the
/swem key assign command.
- Multiplayer (MP): Admin keys must be assigned via console access only.
- MP (Essentials): Admin keys must be assigned prior to opening the world to other players.
- Players with the admin key can assign film and mod keys to other users without requiring OP.

Other
Change Ownership
This vanilla command should no longer be needed in 1.18 with OP overrides to horse ownership (when set to none/trusted only) but it is noted in case of any issue with accessing a restricted horse.
/data modify entity @e[type=swem:swem_horse,sort=nearest,limit=1] Owner set value PLAYERSFULLUUIDHERE
- Stand near the target horse - move away any other nearby SWEM horses (to not accidentally edit their data instead)
- Find the UUID of a (OP) player, you can get it on a website like MCUUID, and edit the command
- Run the command. You can change the horse to All, mount it and use the normal transfer command
Known Issues
If you find an issue, please report it to our bugs channel on Discord. We ask that you look to see if your issue was reported first!
- [-] Keys override OP access and cannot be circumvented to set custom role permissions via permission plugins.
