pace-the-room

Restless roaming that criss-crosses the room and loops back to start.

Composes: walk + turn-and-face

How

• Use a sequence with loop:true. Frame root is ABSOLUTE; compute the travel axis from state.position+state.faceDeg (0=+Z, 90=+X). The example assumes origin facing +Z.
• Criss-cross root waypoints across the room, returning to the start each loop so it stays consistent.
• Long durationMs (~6000).

Example

• "pace around the room" -> {"durationMs":6000,"say":"Pacing around the room.","sequence":{"loop":true,"frames":[{"t":0,"root":{"x":0,"z":0,"faceDeg":0}},{"t":0.3,"root":{"x":1.5,"z":2,"faceDeg":40}},{"t":0.6,"root":{"x":-1.5,"z":1,"faceDeg":210}},{"t":0.8,"root":{"x":0,"z":2.5,"faceDeg":0}},{"t":1,"root":{"x":0,"z":0,"faceDeg":180}}]}}

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.
