Three things the lab could not do. WRISTS. Each hand had one scalar, a twist about the barrel. That is the only axis a hand wrapping a cylinder is free in ONCE the arc onto the barrel is solved — which is true of the support hand, was never true of the trigger hand, and in neither case left a way to cock a wrist forward or break it inward. Both now take pitch, yaw and roll, applied in the GUN's frame so the three sliders mean the same thing whether the muzzle is down at low ready or level down the sights. Zero is exactly the old behaviour, since the roll term defaulted to zero too. HAND POINTS. `gun_stock` and `gun_fore` are the distances along the weapon at which each hand sits, and they were labelled by what they measure rather than by whose hand it is. They now say TRIGGER and SUPPORT, next to the off-barrel shifts for the same two hands, so the four controls that place a hand read as four controls that place a hand. POSES. The hold's knobs are now per pose, and the lab shows one pose's at a time. Half of them mean something different at low ready than down the sights; showing both sets at once meant every slider on screen was for one of two poses with nothing saying which. Selecting a pose rebuilds the panel. Two poses, not four, and deliberately: the runtime blends between exactly two holds on `ads`. Running and Crouched are locomotion states that still use the low-ready hold, so they edit the same numbers — and the heading says so, rather than letting someone tune "Running" and wonder why standing still changed. Offering four independent tunings would be inventing a capability the code does not have, and the fourth would silently do nothing. `pitch` is the case that forced the design: down the sights the muzzle follows the CAMERA, so there is nothing there to tune. It exists at low ready and nowhere else, and a spec table where a knob names the poses it applies to is what lets that be said instead of shipping a control that does nothing. hold_pose_check asserts both halves — that no pose shows another's knobs, that aiming offers no muzzle pitch, that the heading names the hold being edited, and that all twelve wrist axes turn the hand they name. Its first version reported every wrist axis as moving the hand by 0.0 degrees, which is precisely the answer it would have given if the wrists had never been implemented: it read `get_bone_pose_rotation` from a SceneTree script, and Godot restores every bone's local pose after the modifier pass. The repo has a reference section about exactly this and it still cost a cycle. Measured through a PoseProbe, every axis turns its hand ~20 degrees. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <[email protected]>
