What is the intended result of Tin Servant's cape?

It appears to be rigged so that a dynamic simulation might be done on it, but I haven't seen a shot where that has happened. Has it?

Is there a person assigned to to that before shots go to render, or is it being left as a rigid shell?

I believe someone, Holmes?, was doing simcloth on it.

I did a couple of scenes with the cape...I used Simcloth and put a large bone in that hangs the length of the cape to help tweak the movement. I also saved a cloth material and a deflector material in the folder with the TinServant. I forget what the scene numbers were...they were in the castle after Woot first arrives. I could hunt down the exact scenes if necessary.

Hope that helps.

One of the scenes was 1_03_05...I might be mistaken about doing a second one with the cape, I could've sworn I did. I also did a scene with Ozma's dress that was in 3_05_04.

I think I was doing some of the shots in the bedroom, but I couldn't get it to calculate no matter what I did. Then I also had a problem with the AM version I was on. I thought it had been reassigned.

I animated TS cap collar in some scenes because his head was penetrating it so if you do a cloth on the cap I wonder if you want to or can leave the collar out of it? Just thought it might be better to let you know?

It might have changed since I messed with it, but the collar was separate from the cape in the simulations that I did...there wasn't any need to do cloth on the collar in those.
