# Motion Warping for Unity: Procedural Root Motion Alignment

> Motion Warping adjusts character root motion at runtime to hit world targets — climb, vault, and execute melee finishers reusing a single animation clip.

Motion Warping is advanced animation technology that adjusts your character's root motion at runtime to align with real targets in the world. Instead of authoring a separate animation for every obstacle size, position, or angle, Motion Warping stretches and warps a single animation to fit — so your character climbs a two-metre wall just as naturally as a one-metre one, all from the same clip.

## What Can You Build With It?

Motion Warping is purpose-built for interactions where the character must physically connect with the environment or an enemy:

* **Climbing and mantling** — scale walls and ledges of varying heights.
* **Vaulting** — jump over obstacles of different widths and positions.
* **Entering vehicles** — step into a car or cockpit regardless of exact spawn placement.
* **Melee finishers** — close the gap to an enemy and land a finishing move without sliding or foot-skating.
* **Landing and rolling** — adapt touchdown animations to the actual terrain height.
