Animation Dock does not show animation tracks when scene contains multiple inherited scenes that have AnimationPlayer

Actually, if you export an enum instance current_animation, the inspector will give you a nice select list.

The enum can be used as a key in a Dictionary[EnumName, String] in which the value is the the animation name in the animation player.

In this answer I shared a recording that shows this:

(Updated: How do you design your character architecture?) State Machines for Characters and their drawbacks - What are your thoughts?

Thoughts? I think I simply agree with this. I always need a lot of words and leave out the punch line, but I think my implementations allow for what you suggest. The only thing I really put on top of that is one single atomic state for each animation with a long descriptive name. This one state makes it super duper easy to test the animation in isolation: And the long name makes code more easy to read and to find.
