Refined species walking and flight poses

Pip walks as a quadruped, Luma crouches and Aster perches, with smoother body and limb transitions into flight.

I refined the new species so they no longer share the same ground configuration. Pip has a quadruped gait, Luma crouches and Aster has a perching pose.

Articulated limbs and folding outer wings now blend into airborne body and leg configurations. The insect controllers also have more horizontal and vertical speed and acceleration.

“I refined the new species so they no longer share the same ground configuration. Pip has a quadruped gait, Luma crouches and Aster has a perching pose.”

I iterated the rendered poses and corrected joint construction and floor contact, with focused locomotion and both-backend control checks.

Feather overlap and contact on uneven terrain remain approximate. This is a locomotion refinement, without a performance-gain claim.
