Can animation nodes

Support Animation and Rigging

Let’s say I have an colection with a few objects in it and some animation.

Can animation nodes create a few copies of a collection, but of set the animation so it’s not all in time?

Can I place the individual collection instances and set the offset by hand?

Yes, this is possible. Habe alook at the following Nodes: Instancer Objects from Group FCurves Loops
