Why we need this function?

[DragonITA]

So, my real question: Is this feature important at all, why does it exist and when should I use it? The main problem is that I just can't tell the two apart. For example, when I look at the other function, I see that the only difference are the parameters: one (SetLiving) has a partialtick while the other (setRotation) has multiple parameters. So I don't see an important difference, for me the two are the same, do you see a difference? Second: Why does it exist at all? And last, when should I use it? For example: I can use an attack animation in the setRotationAngles function as well as in the setLivingAnimation, so I don't see any difference again. Or the same with a panic animation. The (really) last question: So if I do a walk animation, and if there is any difference at all, then where should I really use it? Most mods use it in the setRotationAngles function, but what if it's wrong?

So, it was the same as the other function?

Ok, what is then the motive that this function exist? It‘s the same as the other, so i not understand, and if i see Vanilla code, it not help me…  For example the Horse model: Its use the two things, and the setLivingAnimations is greater as the setRotationAnimations, so i not know…

I have see in a mod, that it use the LivingAnimation function, i still wonder why:

    @Override
    public void setLivingAnimations(T entityIn, float limbSwing, float limbSwingAmount, float partialTick)
    {
    	this.partialTicks = partialTick;
    }

So, the only difference between setRotationAngles and setLivingAnimations is only that setLivingAnimations has lesser parameters, but a partialTick parameter? Else it are identical? When it was this, so could someone say it me, pls?
