Compass Scene
Compass Scene is inspired by the ponder. The difference is that you don't need to write code, and all scenes can be implemented through xml. This page details how to configure a scene.
The compass scene consists of many <frame>. <frame> refers to a chapter/section of the scene animation.
The user can jump back and forth between frames, but not to a specific moment of animation within the frame.
<description/>: Describes the frame, shows it on hover tooltips, and has the same syntax as the <text/> label.

Actions are used under the <frame/> tag.
There are two types of built-in actions <information/> and <scene/>. You can register custom actions via Java if you want.
Actions are executed sequentially, and the next action is executed if and only if the last action is completed, but this can be adjusted using the following attributes, similar to ppt animation:
- delay: delay time after last action finish. (tick)
- start-before-last: start this action while the last one is performing.
