```

**Parameters:**

- `unit`: [Object](../topics/Object.md) - unit to play movement data on
- `data`: [Array](../topics/Array.md) - movement data to use
- `varDone`: [Array](../topics/Array.md) - (Optional, default `[]`) variable to set on specified Object once playback has finished in format:
  - 0: [Object](../topics/Object.md), [Group](../topics/Group.md) or [Namespace](../topics/Namespace.md) - target
  - 1: [String](../topics/String.md) - variable name

- `skipTime`: [Number](../topics/Number.md) - (Optional, default 0) amount of time to skip at the start of playback. For example if you wish to play the data from halfway instead of the start.
