It incorporates a wide variety of states such as Idle, Locomotion, Jumping, Swimming, Flying, and more, simulating realistic animal behavior. Additionally, it supports extra behaviors including Actions, Attacks, and Damage, catering to different gameplay needs. The controller also accommodates multiple stances like Crouch, Sneak, and Combat, alongside advanced movement features like a Gravity Changer and Root Motion, giving developers the flexibility to create complex and dynamic animal characters for their games. ## States Idle Locomotion Fall Jump RootMotion Jump Basic Swim Underwater Death Wall Run Ledge Grab Free Climb Glide (Wings) Fly Slide ### Runtime State Change (Profiles) E.g.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://malbersanimations.gitbook.io/animal-controller/features.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
