# Animation Troubleshooting Guide

Something's off. Use this to find and fix it.

## Symptom-Based Diagnosis

### "It feels floaty/weightless"
**Check:**
- Slow in/out - Is spacing too even? Add bunching at start/end
- Timing - Need more frames for weight? Fewer for snap?
- Squash/stretch - Impact reaction visible?
- Follow through - Settling properly or just stopping?

**Fix:** Add 2-4 frames to settle. Increase spacing variation. Add impact squash.
