<function name="SetSequence" parent="Entity" type="classfunc"> <description> Sets the entity's model sequence. If the specified sequence is already active, the animation will not be restarted. See <page>Entity:ResetSequence</page> for a function that restarts the animation even if it is already playing. In some cases you want to run <page>Entity:ResetSequenceInfo</page> to make this function run. <note>This will not work properly if called directly after calling <page>Entity:SetModel</page>. Consider waiting until the next Tick.</note> <note>Will not work on players due to the animations being reset every frame by the base gamemode animation system in <page>GM:CalcMainActivity</page>. For Players, use in <page>GM:UpdateAnimation</page> instead.</note> </description> <realm>Shared</realm> <args> <arg name="sequenceId" type="number">The sequence to play.
