Multiple Parents

[Freelix2000 2]

I am about to attempt to make a very large, complex fight animation with Mine-Imator, but first I need to figure out how to set multiple parents for an item, or a way to give an item similar parent flexibilities as an item with multiple parents. I need to know how to make it so that a sword can be in one character's hand with their hand as its parent at first, but then it can be stolen from them and its parent becomes another character's hand. In the past I have done this by creating multiple items that appear to be the same in the animation, but for a large animation like this I would like to find an easier way.

there's no easy way UNTIL mineimator 1.x is out.
