 Show Looping Animation
 by KK20
 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
 [ About ]
 RPG Maker only allows playing an animation over a character on the map through
 an event. This script allows you to utilize looping animations as well.
 
 [ To Use ]
 In an event, use a 'Script' command and put in the following:
            play_loop_anim(CHARACTER, ID)
            
 where CHARACTER is the character you want the animation to play over.
   -1 = Player
    0 = This event (the one making this script call)
   >0 = The event ID on the map
   
  and ID is the animation ID you would like to play from your database.
  
  To stop the loop animation, use this:
              stop_loop_anim(CHARACTER)
  
  replacing CHARACTER in a similar fashion explained above.
