<p> With the servo you should be able to make that spout move real <b><i>s - l - o - w</i></b>. </p><p>Most animations I have seen move way too fast to look right. Things get even worse, when there is a slight "hitch in the git-along" .</p><p>The other day, I visited Miniatur Wunderland in Hamburg, and I am afraid, most animations they show do not thrill me at all! A cable car, which "bobs" along the cable, a ship, which floats on real water like a rubber duck in the bath tub, men raising beer glasses at a speed, that would empty them in an instant. Even their car system does not look right, as the cars turn around the corners without slowing down and come to an abrupt halt at the traffic lights.<br></p><p>Now I am not at all against animation on layouts, but they have to be applied sparingly and sensibly.<br></p>
