Fixing them changes the look, so here is TODAY next to 4 versions each, from a light touch to a bold change. Each figure is drawn from the game’s own shapes and poses, and each number is measured the way the lab check measures it. Tap PICK on the one you want (or KEEP TODAY), then SEND at the bottom.
Our lead for the kurta (D): side slits, so each half of the hem follows its leg. It stays inside the line when idle, running and kicking.
Today the tunic below the hip is a stiff panel that follows the spine. When the fighter leans into a run, the spine tips forward, so the hem swings out behind the legs. The check catches 3.0 cm at the one moment it measures. Across the whole run cycle it peaks at 8.3 cm. Each figure shows IDLE, a live RUN and a kill-film KICK, with the live distance past the outline over each fighter.
Shows the 1.5 cm line around the legs and torso, and rings the point of the hem that sticks out furthest.
THE CHECK measures idle, run and victory at one moment each (0.37 s). RUN PEAK is the worst moment of the whole run cycle. KICK is the high kick, the hardest pose a kill film puts a hem through.
The same panel at the same size, but it hangs from the hip toward the point between the knees, the way cloth falls, instead of following the spine. That passes the check and cuts the run peak to 2.2 cm. A kick still lifts the hem 4.2 cm out, because the panel follows the raised knee.
A’s hang, made slimmer and 2 cm shorter: 15 cm long, as wide as the torso at the top, flaring to 0.8 cm wider at the hem. It passes the check. In motion it is still a bit over: 1.9 cm in a run, 3.7 cm in a kick. In the game this needs a tapered shape instead of the plain box.
A short kurta (a kurti) that ends at mid-thigh: 10 cm below the hip, 1 cm wider than the torso, hanging between the legs. It stays inside the line in every pose: idle, run, victory and kick. It no longer reads as a long tunic, though, so it is the biggest change to the outline.
Real kurtas have side slits, and here they do too. The hem splits into a front and a back panel, and each follows its own thigh (the back one in the back-leg shade, like the back sleeve). Standing, the two halves close up into one tunic, close to today’s. Running and kicking, they part, and the white churidar shows between them. It keeps the length (15 cm) and flares to 1.0 cm past the outline at most, in every pose.
The approved rule (page 79c, ★ A): under a hat, only the sideburn shows in front; the ponytail and bun still show behind. So under a CAP, all four of these styles draw the same sideburn. The 1.20 R the check reports is that sideburn’s ink rim at its top-back corner, which sits under the cap. And in the game today, the sideburn hardly shows: it sits under the cap’s own dark rim.
Draws the check’s 1.05 R ring around each head (the head’s own ink edge sits at 1.17 R).
The sideburn, moved down to just below the cap’s dark rim, where it shows, the way page 79c draws it. It is painted inside the head’s round: no ink copy of its own, the head’s ink edge outlines it, and a thin ink line marks where hair meets skin. It keeps the approved 79c rule (only the sideburn shows under a hat) and passes the check as written.
Painted like A, but each style keeps a hint of itself under the cap. SPIKES get three short spikes squashed under the brim, the MOHAWK a blond tuft at the nape, CURLS a few curls at the back, and the BOB a straight-cut panel down to the jaw. You can tell what someone bought, even under a cap. Everything stays inside 1.00 R.
Under any hat, no hair shows in front. Only what sits behind the head stays: the BOB’s back piece (and the ponytail and bun, which pass already). On screen it looks almost the same as today, since today’s sideburn is hidden anyway. SPIKES, MOHAWK and CURLS look bald under a cap.
Today’s sideburn under a cap 8 % bigger that sits lower (the brim drops 0.14 R), so the cap hides the hair completely. It changes every cap in the game, not just the ones over hair. It still fails the check as written, because the check measures the hair and not what the cap hides. It would also need the lab changed, and the cap’s size limit measured again.
