Octopus Bot

PlayEdit

So, let me try to explain how to control this beast.

In walk mode (default mode when starting the level):

· Hold A/D to walk left/right
· Sliders Z and X adjust the width/height of leg placement (I tried to set reasonable limits to minimize impossible angles, but tuning the bot still takes time. I've preset the sliders to values that allow decent movement)
(P.S. This mode determines the position of the trajectory axes relative to the root motors)
· Sliders C and V adjust the height/width of the step trajectory (you can make steps higher or wider; tune carefully, as extreme values can put the bot in awkward positions)
· The slider in the bottom left adjusts speed
· Press F to switch to manipulator mode

In manipulator mode:

· H to return to walk mode
· Sliders Z/X adjust the X/Y position of the target point
· Slider C adjusts the end effector orientation
· F to close/open the claw
· G to cycle through leg selection
