Two very similar methods for quick overshoot/overlap and settle using maya.
One by Paul Creamer
The other method by Brian Horgan
Remember, scrub your timeline, to the inbetween frame on linear, middle click and drag to the new time, add keyframe. Once done just offset by group of parts.
Also there are a few scripts available to do this automatically.

Nextcloud Your sync clients are blocked from further uploads nextcloud and 404 File Missing
Had some issues where my client would display a 404 File missing on “GET and “your sync clients are blocked from further uploads nextcloud”
Solved it by rolling back to client 3.0 https://download.nextcloud.com/desktop/releases/Windows/Nextcloud-3.0.0-setup.exe
And removing the Ransomware Protection App from the Nextcloud dashboard on your admin account.
For some reason it was detecting .bin files from unreal engine as ransomware.
Uninstalled my 3.2 client, removed connection, installed 3.0 and synced it on the new folder.
Everything is syncing properly now.
