It works on :
- Bipeds
- Quarupeds
- Spiders
- Snakes (In the latest update)
The IK tools can be used on humans and most animals such as dogs, chickens, bears,dragons , multi legged beasts ,scorpions,spiders,worms etc . Setting up the inverse kinematics in your animals can be done in just a few minutes as it is almost automatic and adapts to the type of rig with just a few parameters to change depending upon your game.
Keep your actual blueprint code clean and simple when you can just implement the ik using two animation blueprint nodes.
The major requirement expected from the skeletal mesh is they should have a linear single sequence of spine bones, while the limbs ultimately connect to this linear sequence of spine bones. A good example is how infinity blade characters are rigged.
