       | development, it would remove so much work.

         | briefly" and help with blending transitions between animations.

         | shoulders and pelvis and have them use boid/flocking style
         | evasion, leave it to the physics solvers to try and recover
         | from there. Throw some crowds into one another, keep cooking
         | escalations until it the stew looks sufficiently not
         | abominable.
