Q: what's something new you've learned this time around?
A: i learned that the 'follow path' feature does not seem to have an option to derive the timing from the distance between the points, i.e. to always reach each next point in the same amount of time and therefore offer the ability to control the timing just by changing the location of the points. instead it insists on re-evaluating the pace to always move at the same speed through physical space. which may be useful for cars or driving but for human body motion such as walking, dancing, etc, i need the point-to-point time equivalency but unfortunately i was shocked to find out that that feature is seemingly not readily available, at least so far as i can tell. but i was able to build an elaborate workaround based on some distant memories of trigonometry, particularly the pythagorean theorem which i still remember from that time i spent as a child trying to comprehend the true size of toilet paper squares
