dodge-roll

A quick evasive roll to one side: dive low, roll (a faceDeg sweep while down), and pop back up.

Composes: move-leg + move-torso + balance-and-posture

How

• Use a sequence with loop:false. Dive (root.y-0.25, x to the side), roll (root.y-0.6, faceDeg sweep, x more), recover to rest.
• Short durationMs (~1100).

• "dodge roll to the side" -> {"durationMs":1100,"say":"Dodge roll!","sequence":{"loop":false,"frames":[{"t":0,"pose":{"LeftUpLeg":[40,0,0],"LeftLeg":[70,0,0],"RightUpLeg":[40,0,0],"RightLeg":[70,0,0],"Spine":[15,0,15]},"root":{"y":-0.25,"x":0.3}},{"t":0.5,"pose":{"LeftUpLeg":[100,0,0],"RightUpLeg":[100,0,0],"LeftLeg":[110,0,0],"RightLeg":[110,0,0],"Spine":[40,0,0]},"root":{"y":-0.6,"x":0.9,"faceDeg":180}},{"t":1,"pose":{"LeftUpLeg":[0,0,180],"RightUpLeg":[0,0,180],"LeftLeg":[0,0,0],"RightLeg":[0,0,0],"Spine":[0,0,0]},"root":{"y":0,"x":1.3,"faceDeg":360}}]}}

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.
