The loop is played live in your browser from the validated loop table (the same data the reference render below was made from); the badge on the player is its self-test (seam + motion probes). The pre-rendered reference follows.
COB-exact: timeline 1:1 from shiva.cob (gait + aim/fire (COB VM), disassembled with _cob_dis.py). StateChg staged-deploy family: 2 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 (SHIVA.COB)
- 0.00–0.00 s — Rest pose (the seam pose — both window ends settle here)
- 0.00–1.77 s — Walk() — one full stride cycle (compiled slides; form-(c) legs run past the sleep clock)
- 1.77–7.25 s — AimPrimary + 4 x FirePrimary (SHIVA_CANNON, 1250 ms) — at the COB aim speeds, shots on that weapon's reload grid
- 7.25–9.97 s — AimSecondary + 2 x FireSecondary (ARMSHIP_MISSILE, 2000 ms) — at the COB aim speeds, shots on that weapon's reload grid
- 9.97–19.01 s — AimTertiary + 2 x FireTertiary (dragonfire, 8000 ms) — at the COB aim speeds, shots on that weapon's reload grid — the fire script is a plain wait, the weapon effect is engine-side
- 19.01–19.01 s — Close: Aim(0, 0) calls the engine would send next — back to the rest aim (engine pacing sleeps stay out)
- 19.01–20.78 s — Walk() again, then settle — the loop restarts seam-clean from the rest pose
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).
