COB-exact: timeline 1:1 from armthovr.cob (duty cycle (boomextend/boomreset), disassembled with _cob_dis.py). StateChg staged-deploy family: 1 open stages, then the compiled close order — not a reversed activate. Fire/hit/death/smoke scripts are engine-driven or firing-only and not part of this loop.

COB timeline (ARMTHOVR.COB)
- 0.40–7.85 s — StartDoorOpen(): loading ramps — doors swing ±90°, ramps drop 9 elmo, 5 s hold to load, then close again
- 7.85–8.05 s — BoomCalc(15 elmo, 15 elmo): pickup spot to starboard — sets the boom length and tower angle statics
- 0.40–15.86 s — boomextend(): opens the structure at its COB speeds
- 15.86–17.86 s — hold + magnet ON over the pickup spot (2 s) — in the game the load sticks to the arm here; the magnet stays visible as the attachment point
- 18.26–18.76 s — rest — the folded pose is the loop seam (pixel-verified)
Every stage duration equals its COB sleep exactly; values are raw COB units (turns: BAM 65536 = 360°, moves: elmo × 163840). Renderer conversions follow the proven family conventions (_cob_anim.py).
