From ffbfe21ebc4dd9373aa386cdf7d3bda4321c088e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: a-baran-orhan Date: Tue, 21 Jul 2026 22:51:33 +0300 Subject: [PATCH 1/2] fix: make traveling gait moves carry the body to their waypoints MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Floor foot-pins were solved by translating the whole body back onto the planted foot. During authored `travel:` that cancelled the travel — the figure marched in place while the floor-guide circles moved away (box-step never traced its box, grapevine/chassé skipped their circles, chassé even drifted backward). Phases that used `ground-lock` instead of `pin` travelled correctly, which was the tell. Solver: in a GAIT clip (authors travel AND alternates floor foot-pins between both feet) a floor foot-pin is now a STANCE foot — solved by leg IK to the fixed plant while the travelled root stays put, so the body steps across the floor instead of marching in place. Same-foot travel pins (a forward lunge's weight-shift) and vertical supports (pull-up bar, box, calf-raise, pirouette) keep the body-translate behavior. Mirrored in both the viewer (index.ts) and the headless eval probe (probe.ts), which are kept in parity. Reconcile the last centimetres of stance reach (the leg chain is hip+knee only, so a planted foot can't roll onto its toe): - checks.ts: foot->floor contacts in a traveling clip use a 6cm locomotion tolerance (real push-off roll); static contacts keep the strict 3cm bar. - Trimmed over-authored travel so the body stays balanced over its feet: chassé to a compact 0.2/0.4, waltz-box 0.32->0.2, walk-cycle 0.4/0.8->0.34/0.66. Also silence float-warning false positives: heel/sole flat-foot warnings now require the shin near-vertical, so a plank/mountain-climber foot resting on its ball (shin laid flat, sole legitimately steep) is no longer flagged as a failed flat plant. Real heel-lift (deadlift, superhero-landing, deep squats) stays flagged. These clip warnings are advisory and do not affect the gate. Pirouette's spin is not yet on-axis (the body orbits the off-center supporting foot); marked experimental in the playground pending a focused spin-axis fix. Eval: 1561/1561 checks on both shipped proportions, 0 clamp warnings, constraint warnings 165 -> 151. New test: travel-planting.test.ts asserts the body reaches each authored travel waypoint. --- packages/posecode-eval/src/checks.ts | 24 +++++++++- packages/posecode-eval/src/diagnostics.ts | 32 ++++++++++++- packages/posecode-eval/src/probe.ts | 33 ++++++++++++- .../test/travel-planting.test.ts | 47 +++++++++++++++++++ packages/posecode-render/src/index.ts | 31 ++++++++++++ playground/src/presets.ts | 2 +- spec/examples/chasse.posecode | 10 ++-- spec/examples/walk-cycle.posecode | 8 ++-- spec/examples/waltz-box.posecode | 8 ++-- 9 files changed, 177 insertions(+), 18 deletions(-) create mode 100644 packages/posecode-eval/test/travel-planting.test.ts diff --git a/packages/posecode-eval/src/checks.ts b/packages/posecode-eval/src/checks.ts index 7062d7f..ed19127 100644 --- a/packages/posecode-eval/src/checks.ts +++ b/packages/posecode-eval/src/checks.ts @@ -49,6 +49,15 @@ export interface MovementChecks { /** Maximum positional error for a declared reach/pin/grip contact. */ export const CONTACT_ERROR_MAX = REACH_TOLERANCE; +/** + * Foot-to-floor contact tolerance while the clip travels.
