 *
 * Animation Node used to synch childs.
 * Would be typically used to synch several walk/run/crouch cycles together.
 *
 * This node works by using the most relevant node in the final blend as the master node,
 * to update all the others (slaves).
 * This requires all cycles to be relatively synched (i.e. left foot is down on all cycles at 0.25% of the animation, regarless of its length).
