Return To RosettaScripts

Each mover definition has the following structure

<mover_name name="&string"/>

where "mover_name" belongs to a predefined set of possible movers that the parser recognizes and are listed below, name is a unique identifier for this mover definition and then any number of parameters that the mover needs to be defined.

Because of historical reasons or subtle differences in the desired functions. Some of the movers are near-duplicate. Read more about the comparision of these near-duplicate movers.

Predefined Movers

Predefined Movers are defined internally in the parser, and the protocol can use them without defining them explicitly.
