CliffEscape

↛The move creates something this site has no table for — an item, or an article with no hitbox of its own. The name shown is the engine’s own, not a heading to go looking for.

Also spawns godwing — the engine's name for it, and there is no table for it here.Forward Smash, Down Smash
Damage comes from autoaimbullet — the engine's name for it, and there is no table for it here.Neutral Special (Y), Neutral Special (Air, Y)

•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.Attack100Start, AttackS4Charge, AttackHi4Charge, AttackLw4Charge, Neutral Special (GStart), Up Special (Start), Up Special (Air, Start), Up Special (Air), DownDamageU, DownDamageU3, DownDamageD, DownDamageD3, PassiveWall, PassiveWallJump, Pass, CliffJump1, CliffJump2
Repeats while the input is held or mashed; one cycle is 20 frames. Frames shown are one cycle, so there is no fixed FAF.Rapid Jab
Land cancels: touching the ground during this move ends it with 14 frames of landing lag rather than the usual special-fall landing. Landing is not the only requirement: the cancel is behind a condition that cannot be read out of the code, so it will not always apply.Neutral Special (Air, P)
Land cancels: touching the ground during this move ends it with 14 frames of landing lag rather than the usual special-fall landing.Up Special (Air)
Held: the animation loops, so this ends on release or on a state change rather than on a fixed frame.CatchWait, DamageFall, DownWaitU, DownWaitD, CliffWait
Timing from fighter_param_motion (escape_n_cancel_frame), not the animation.Spot Dodge

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)
