MOBILITY LOGIC: sc-035 [Leg-Buffer Extension]
A high-tier mobility logic designed for transformable MS that utilize their leg thrusters as primary propulsion in flight mode. By converting the leg frame's physical integrity into a thermal buffer, this protocol allows the airframe to bleed excess thruster heat into the hydraulic systems, significantly extending cruise time.

The "Leg-Buffer" Mechanism
This skill creates an integrity link between the unit's remaining Leg HP and its propellant efficiency. On machines like the Zeta Gundam, where leg thrusters are essential for flight, this logic redirects engine stress into the leg frame. However, the extension effect scales with the current health of the legs; damaged limbs cannot act as an effective heat sink, reducing the safe-operating window.
Technical Risks: Landing Stumble
While the skill provides a massive advantage in flight duration, landing while the "Leg Load" is at its peak (near thruster overheat) results in a high-load stumble. The redirected pressure causes a temporary hydraulic lock, leaving the unit momentarily vulnerable upon touching down.
