Description

I hate to be the guy who's pointing out minor graphical flaws, but there's another one. The last frame of all the walk-cycle animations doesn't play, or lacks interpolation with the first when it re-cycles. It's pretty easy to see if you get in an exo and get a long gun, then just walk forwards. It even happens on modded weapons which is why I'm pretty sure it's a coding bug and not a viewmodel one.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Look into the animation system code, particularly the walk cycle animation update logic. Check how frames are sequenced and if interpolation between the last and first frame is handled correctly.
