Summary

Flow Core 4.5 introduces Side Avoidance so Flow Characters can react when moving close to walls and other obstacles.

Highlights

  • Added pressure-based body turning without changing the Character’s movement direction.
  • Added IK-based avoidance poses with optional animation-based poses.
  • Added automatic multi-hand obstacle contact with Finger Gesture support.
  • Added Flow Instructions, Conditions, debugging tools, and persistence support for Side Avoidance.

Compatibility and Upgrade Notes

Side Avoidance is disabled by default, preserving the behavior of existing Characters until the feature is configured and enabled.
