Motion Path and Particle Intervals
==================================

MopathInterval
==============


Motion paths are an advanced feature of Panda3D, and they are discussed later.
Still, motion paths have their own intervals. A motion path interval is much
like a function interval in that there are no additional parameters other than
the motion path and the NodePath it is affecting.



.. code-block:: python
    
    intervalName = MopathInterval("Motion Path Name", NodePath, "Interval Name")

ParticleInterval
================


Particle effects can be run from inside intervals as well:



.. code-block:: python
    
    intervalName = ParticleInterval(
        "Particle Effect Name",
        parent,
        worldRelative = 1,
        loop = 0 or 1,
        duration = myDuration
    )
