•Other notes.

FAF here is the animation's length: the motion list sets no cancel frame for this action, so the true actionable frame may be earlier.AttackS4Charge, AttackHi4Charge, AttackLw4Charge, Neutral Special (Start), Neutral Special (Air, Start), Down Special (Start), DownDamageU, DownDamageU3, DownDamageD, DownDamageD3, PassiveWall, PassiveWallJump, Pass, CliffJump1, CliffJump2
Held: the animation loops, so this ends on release or on a state change rather than on a fixed frame.Neutral Special (Loop), Neutral Special (Air, Loop), CatchWait, DamageFall, ShoulderedDonkey, DownWaitU, DownWaitD, CliffWait
Landing lag is 18 frames, from `param_special_hi.landing_frame`. This special has no landing animation of its own — it hands the figure to the landing directly — so nothing in the script or the motion list shows it.Up Special (Air)
Land cancels: touching the ground during this move ends it in Down Special (Air, Landing), which recovers in 10 frames rather than the 59 this move would otherwise run. The figure is param_special_lw.landing_frame, which is what that status becomes actionable on -- its animation runs longer.Down Special (Air)
Timing from fighter_param_motion (escape_n_cancel_frame), not the animation.Spot Dodge
Intangible on frames 3-15.Spot Dodge
Timing from fighter_param_motion (escape_f_cancel_frame), not the animation.Forward Roll
Intangible on frames 4-13.Forward Roll, Back Roll
Timing from fighter_param_motion (escape_b_cancel_frame), not the animation.Back Roll
FAF is HDR's runtime calculation rather than a param: the air dodge stalls for 28 frames and ends once the fighter has fallen 35 units, so it follows their gravity and fall speed.Air Dodge, Air Dodge (Directional)
Intangible on frames 4-26.Air Dodge, Air Dodge (Directional)
Landing lag is 10 frames, from common's `landing_frame_escape_air` — the param HDR's air dodge status hands the landing when the dodge ends on the ground.Air Dodge
Landing lag is 10 frames, from param_motion's `landing_frame_escape_air_slide_max` — the param HDR's air dodge status hands the landing when the dodge ends on the ground.Air Dodge (Directional)
Held: the animation is a hold placeholder, so this ends on release or on a state change rather than on a fixed frame.Shield
