 # Advanced Locomotion System Refactored
 
 Completely reworked and improved version of the [Community Version](https://github.com/dyanikoglu/ALS-Community) of [Advanced Locomotion System V4](https://www.unrealengine.com/marketplace/en-US/product/advanced-locomotion-system-v1).
 
-The main purpose of this fork is is a complete and high-quality refactoring of every aspect of the plugin, so that it becomes easier to understand, more flexible, reliable (especially in multiplayer), performant, and simply more pleasant to work with.
+The main purpose of this ALS version is is a complete and high-quality refactoring of every aspect of the plugin, so that it becomes easier to understand, more flexible, reliable (especially in network multiplayer), performant and simply more pleasant to work with.
 
 ## Features
 
-- Refactored plugin structure. Content is now separated into 3 categories: `ALS` - main content, `ALSCamera` - camera related content, and `ALSExtras` - other optional content.
+- Refactored plugin structure. Content is now separated into 3 categories: `ALS` - main content, `ALSCamera` - camera related content and `ALSExtras` - other optional content.
 - Use of multiple linked animation blueprints instead of a single monolithic animation blueprint.
-- Use of Control Rig plugin for IK and other bone manipulation tasks instead of animation graph nodes.
+- Use of animation layer interfaces to dynamically switch overlay states at runtime instead of referencing them directly in animation blueprints.
+- Use of the **Control Rig** plugin for IK and other bone manipulation tasks instead of animation graph nodes.
 - Significantly reduced number of virtual bones required by the plugin.
-- Added the ability to disable the use of IK bones and only use virtual bones for all bone manipulation tasks, which can be useful in cases where IK bones are not animated in your custom animations.
-- Reworked foot locking to make it more performant and reliable, especially in multiplayer.

+- Reworked foot locking to make it more performant and reliable, especially in network multiplayer.
+- Reworked foot and pelvis offset logic for smoother character movement on stairs or sloped surfaces.
 - Added "Slot" layering animation curves that allow to control the blending of overlay poses with animation montages played inside "Layering" animation slots.
 - Added `Blend Curves` and `Blend Poses by Gameplay Tag` animation graph nodes. `Blend Curves` allows to blend animation curves without the need for the `VB curves` virtual bone and `Blend Poses by Gameplay Tag` is similar to `Blend Poses by Enum` but uses gameplay tags instead of enum.
+- Moved thread safe animation instance logic to the worker thread to improve game thread performance.
 - Replaced some C++ enums such as `EAlsOverlayMode` with gameplay tags so new entries can be added without the need to modify the code.
 - Reworked `UAlsCharacterMovementComponent` for better movement synchronization over the network.
 - Reworked mantling. Implemented as a root motion source for better movement synchronization over the network.
 - Reworked camera. Implemented as a component similar to the standard camera component, no need for custom `APlayerCameraManager` or `APlayerController` classes.
 - Reworked debug mode. Can be toggled by pressing `Shift + [1-8]` or using console commands such as `ShowDebug ALS.Curves`.
-- Use of Push Model for more efficient replication.
-- Use of MetaSounds and Enhanced Input plugins.
-- Most of the recent significant changes from the community version are also present in this fork.

 - A lot of other fixes, improvements and refactorings.
