sashay
Graceful sideways gliding steps (lead foot out, trail foot meets) with an arm flourish. Translate root while OMITTING faceDeg so the heading holds.
Composes: walk + move-arm
How
- Use a
sequence with loop:false. Frame root is ABSOLUTE; compute the travel axis from state.position+state.faceDeg (0=+Z, 90=+X). The example assumes origin facing +Z. Step x to the side; do NOT set faceDeg.
- Lead leg out (
RightUpLeg Z toward -150), then feet meet; flourish the arms.
durationMs ~2400.
Example
- "sashay across" ->
{"durationMs":2400,"say":"Sashaying through.","sequence":{"loop":false,"frames":[{"t":0,"pose":{"RightUpLeg":[0,0,-150],"LeftUpperArm":[0,0,30],"RightUpperArm":[0,0,-50]},"root":{"x":0.6}},{"t":0.5,"pose":{"RightUpLeg":[0,0,180],"LeftUpLeg":[0,0,180]},"root":{"x":1.2}},{"t":1,"pose":{"LeftUpperArm":[0,0,90],"RightUpperArm":[0,0,-90]},"root":{"x":1.8}}]}}
Limits & posture
Keep ≥1 foot grounded except at a jump's airborne apex; stay inside human joint ranges and keep weight over the support — see balance-and-posture.
