    Did you try removing the toe handles from the feet? They were distorting the left foot a lot.

    to make the body less flexible, try putting some sticks on the body where you don’t want flex. Could try a square or cross - might need to try a few things to get it right.

    I tried creating a video, but using OBS Studio (free) I am finding the video starts speeding up unexpected at random, so lost the end of the video. Hopefully enough there to be useful.

    I love (debugging) Turtles - YouTube

    Sorry, the forums are not always that fast. If no-one else solves it first, I will try and have a look when I get home from work tonight, probably after kids are in bed.

    Question - do you mind if I try and create a video of my debugging session and share it publicly? Just trying it as an experiment to see if such videos would be useful to anyone else. I am not an expert (more ”intermediate”), just willing.

    It is usually a matter of handles or pins in the wrong spot. The walk action takes over things - so if you have some pins they will cause distortions.
