 /**
- * Adds an Animation JSON file to the current load queue.
+ * Adds an Animation JSON Data file, or array of Animation JSON files, to the current load queue.
  *
- * Note: This method will only be available if the Animation JSON File type has been built into Phaser.
+ * The file is **not** loaded immediately, it is added to a queue ready to be loaded either when the loader starts,
+ * or if it's already running, when the next free load slot becomes available. This means you cannot use the file
+ * immediately after calling this method, but instead must wait for the file to complete.
+ * 
+ * The key must be a unique String. It is used to add the file to the global JSON Cache upon a successful load.
+ * The key should be unique both in terms of files being loaded and files already present in the JSON Cache.
+ * Loading a file using a key that is already taken will result in a warning. If you wish to replace an existing file
+ * then remove it from the JSON Cache first, before loading a new one.
  *
- * The file is **not** loaded immediately after calling this method.
- * Instead, the file is added to a queue within the Loader, which is processed automatically when the Loader starts.
+ * Instead of passing arguments you can pass a configuration object, such as:
+ * 
+ * ```javascript
+ * this.load.animation({
+ *     key: 'baddieAnims',
+ *     url: 'files/BaddieAnims.json'
+ * });
+ * ```
+ *
+ * See the documentation for `Phaser.Loader.FileTypes.JSONFileConfig` for more details.
+ *
+ * Once the file has finished loading it will automatically be passed to the global Animation Managers `fromJSON` method.
+ * This will parse all of the JSON data and create animation data from it. This process happens at the very end
+ * of the Loader, once every other file in the load queue has finished. The reason for this is to allow you to load
+ * both animation data and the images it relies upon in the same load call.
+ *
+ * Once the animation data has been parsed you will be able to play animations using that data.
+ * Please see the Animation Manager `fromJSON` method for more details about the format and playback.
+ * 
+ * You can also access the raw animation data from its Cache using its key:
+ * 
+ * ```javascript
+ * this.load.animation('baddieAnims', 'files/BaddieAnims.json');
+ * // and later in your game ...
+ * var data = this.cache.json.get('baddieAnims');
+ * ```
+ *
+ * If you have specified a prefix in the loader, via `Loader.setPrefix` then this value will be prepended to this files
+ * key. For example, if the prefix was `LEVEL1.` and the key was `Waves` the final key will be `LEVEL1.Waves` and
+ * this is what you would use to retrieve the text from the JSON Cache.
+ *
+ * The URL can be relative or absolute. If the URL is relative the `Loader.baseURL` and `Loader.path` values will be prepended to it.
+ *
+ * If the URL isn't specified the Loader will take the key and create a filename from that. For example if the key is "data"
+ * and no URL is given then the Loader will set the URL to be "data.json". It will always add `.json` as the extension, although
+ * this can be overridden if using an object instead of method arguments. If you do not desire this action then provide a URL.
+ *
+ * You can also optionally provide a `dataKey` to use. This allows you to extract only a part of the JSON and store it in the Cache,
+ * rather than the whole file. For example, if your JSON data had a structure like this:
+ * 
+ * ```json
+ * {
+ *     "level1": {
+ *         "baddies": {
+ *             "aliens": {},
+ *             "boss": {}
+ *         }
+ *     },
+ *     "level2": {},
+ *     "level3": {}
+ * }
+ * ```
+ *
+ * And if you only wanted to create animations from the `boss` data, then you could pass `level1.baddies.boss`as the `dataKey`.
+ *
+ * Note: The ability to load this type of file will only be available if the JSON File type has been built into Phaser.
+ * It is available in the default build but can be excluded from custom builds.
