Fix your phone’s animation loop

Caution

This is optional and you don’t need to do anything unless you are experiencing an animation glitch.

If your phone uses an animation loop you may need to edit it (usually found in an animation.lua file) and add a not CS_STORIES.ACTIVE check before playing an animation to ensure an animation glitch does not occur when the stories camera is opened.
