Exactly. Were you to use the ClockMod.inc file you would put:
#declare clock_type="D"
#include "clockmod.inc"
#declare Decel=mclock;
Then use Decel in place of 'clock' where you want the deceleration.
To combine different types just add this:
#declare clock_combine="W"
before the include line and you will get a wave, or back and forth movement
that also slows down.
Also using separate declarations for individual parts of movement too:
#declare clock_type="D"
#include "clockmod.inc"
#declare Decel=mclock;
#declare clock_type="W"
#include "clockmod.inc"
#declare Wave=mclock;
and put those in where most likely to go, like one for z translation and
other for y. Hope that made sense.
Plenty is possble just using the include, but there is a macro now too.

Yep! The macro is very powerful and handy. Try it out.

The macro absolutely rules. Not only did he invent the wheel, he
perfected it as well. ;)

But some of us like reinventing the wheel. Honestly.
I have a poorly defined system for this, but it kind of explains how to
do it yourself at

First of all, the clock moves from 0 to 1, so the code you posted will meet
problems.
If you want something to move quickly at first then slowly, say:
translate <0,-sqrt(clock),0> //think how y=sqrt(x) varies from 0
to 1
If you want something to move slowly at first then speed up, say:
translate <0,-sqr(clock),0> //think how y=sqr(x) varies from 0 to
1

Not necessarily true, it defaults to [0..1] but you can adjust it by
the +ki and +kf switches.

The .ini file I use to render animations has the following settings:
Initial clock=0
Initial frame=0
Final clock=100
Final frame=2400 (I always render at 24 fps).
This has a pretty good set-and-forget factor. When I render, I specify
the frames I want through the subset_start and subset_end options.
Regards,
John

I would assume, folks, that a 2-week user wouldn't know this; I didn't.....
