Description

Very relaxing

It's confusing because you can juggerdash while resting and attack and turn, so it makes it seem like you have simply lost control of your movement

Research direction
Investigate the Juggernaut mob code to find where sprite states are defined. Look for references to 'resting' and ensure a resting sprite is assigned. The issue reporter notes that dashing and attacking work while resting, so the resting state might be missing a sprite override. Check the icon state definitions in the relevant .dmi file and the associated DM code.
