Get up

An animal on four legs gets up from sitting: its front end comes down onto its front paws as its back legs push it up, and it stands, tail up.

What it is for

The end of a sit: a dog called, a cat done waiting. It is what Stand up plays on four legs, after Sit down (which is a sit on its haunches).

The principle it shows: the back legs lift it

Sitting, an animal is upright on its haunches; getting up, the front end tips down onto the front paws while the back legs straighten and push the hips up, both at once (ease in, then out), until it stands level, the tail coming up last.

Try this

  1. Take 0.4 s over its first change instead of 0.25 s: a slower get up.

    In the program: ramp ยท over 0.25 โ†’ 0.4

  2. Turn the body's tilt to 39 instead of 30: a bigger get up.

    In the program: ramp ยท to.part:torso 30 โ†’ 39

How it differs from the others

Sit (four legs) is the same move the other way; Stand up is a person getting up from the ground.

Works on

The two in the film above, and what the move turns on each: worked out by the build, which plays the move on each body and checks what moves. Nobody types this table.
