# Add Movement with Non RootMotion Animations

## Overview

If your character is not moving, but its playing the animations at it supposed to do it, Usually this is because the character is **not** using Root Motion Animations, but InPlace Animations. 

### **Root Motion**

### **In Place**

![The animation is done "In Place", there's no character movement](/files/-MdOPWOEj0SRdFUuQon7)

## Steps

* Go to the [**Speed Sets**](/animal-controller/main-components/manimal-controller/speeds.md) tabs  and select the **Ground** Speed**.**

![](/files/-LzxTm3YExvmCUpVuTHG)

* On the [**POSITION** ](/animal-controller/main-components/manimal-controller/speeds.md#position)parameter of any Speed Modifier(Walk,Trot,Run), add a value higher than **0**.

![](/files/-M-81qanIdpDrSSogOJo)

*  That will make the animal move without RootMotion. 
* Try Different Lerp Values to modify the Responsiveness. 

Do the Same for the  [**Rotation** ](/animal-controller/main-components/manimal-controller/speeds.md#rotation)parameter... to increase the Turning Speed.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

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/how-to-ac/movement-no-rm-anims.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`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.
