New Walking Method Armored Core Mech

Auto Credit Based on LimitedShelf568's Amphibious Armored Core

Read the whole description please. This is an armored core that uses a walking method that I discovered a while ago but didn't share because the walker was really ugly, I've posted the original walker now that I have uploaded this one. It is a new version of my All Terrain/Amphibious Armored Core that has all the same controls and capabilities plus some new ones and some initialization conditions. The old controls are included below. The new systems added to this one are the walking function, a variable zoom scope, high boost mode, and a pair of powered frontal tires.

New Controls/instructions:

Intialize low friction cruise: AG 1, landing gear
Zoom scope: Camera 2, AG 1 Trim up
Open Missile bay: AG 4, Landing gear
Frontal shield extension: AG 5, Landing Gear
Aim Quad Cannons: AG 5 VTOL and Trim
WALKING:
Initialize with AG 1, Vtol all the way up or down, then deactivate AG 1
AG 3 Vtol up, you want it to be somewhere in between the top 2 notches, but closer to the top 1. This works better and beautifully in slow motion.
Steer with Trim.

Changed Air Drop Capability Protocol:
Choose one of the final approaches to test it, land on water
let the mech freefall for about 3-5 seconds (maybe longer) then AG 6 for parachutes and high boost thrusters.
Activate thrusters below 1000 ft elevation, you probably won't need full thrust.
Deactivate AG6 at below 30ft for successful landing.

Note: this Mech works best with a powerful computer, and in slow-mo, and handles differently from the old one, in some ways better and some worse.
