Dynamic Walking

Physical walk-in-place locomotion for BONELAB.

Instead of gliding wherever you push the stick, Dynamic Walking splits moving into two natural intentions:

The thumbstick only aims. Push it the way you want to go — forward, strafe, backward — but on its own it no longer moves you.
Stepping moves you. March in place and the gentle up-and-down bob of your head becomes your walking speed. Step faster and (with running on) you break into a run.

Both are required: stick centered, you stay put no matter how you bob; stand still with the stick pushed, you stay put until you start stepping. It works with everything the normal walk does — climbing ledges, sprinting, and full Fusion multiplayer (other players just see you walking).

Why it feels accurate

Slopes, elevators, teleports and crouches don't shove you. Only the quick bob of real stepping counts — steady vertical motion is filtered out.
Genuine step detection. It watches for the real up/down rhythm of marching, so looking around or one-off movement won't make you drift.
Smooth and responsive. You start moving the instant you step and glide at one steady speed between strides, then settle quickly when you stop.
Speed follows your pace. March quickly to move faster, up to a run.

Settings (BoneMenu → Dynamic Walking)

Dynamic Walking — master on/off (off = normal stick movement).
Activate Running — let fast stepping break into a run (off caps you at a walk).
Step Sensitivity — how easily a head bob becomes movement.
Min Step Strength — ignore head motion gentler than this.
Reset Defaults — restore the tuning.

Installation

Install with the Thunderstore Mod Manager / r2modman, or manually drop DynamicWalking.dll into your BONELAB/Mods folder. Requires MelonLoader and BoneLib (installed automatically by the mod manager).
