:arrow_forward: ISSUE EXPERIENCED

Spearmen and Pikemen are left-handed when walking, but right-handed when attacking. The idle animation could be either I think. From holding the polearm in place with your right hand, either grab the back with your left hand and take a step back with your left foot, or grab the front with your left hand and take a step back with your right foot. The latter is probably more practical.

Halberdiers don’t have this issue. They’re always left-handed.

  • 100% of the time / matches I play (ALWAYS)

:arrow_forward: REPRODUCTION STEPS

Here’s the steps to reproduce the issue:

  1. take a look at each animation
  2. walking animation: right hand towards tip, left hand towards back → left-handed
  3. idleA animation: holding polearm in place with right hand → could be either I think
  4. unused idleB animation for Pikemen: holding pike sideways with the tip pointing to the right → left-handed
  5. attack animation: thrusting weapon on right side → right-handed

:arrow_forward: EXPECTED RESULT

The dominant hand used should be consistent between the animations.
