# Give the wolf a head start

In the current configuration, it’s obvious at an early stage that the fox will win the race. We’ll make some adjustments so that it seems as though the wolf will win, and then the fox makes a comeback.

1. On the timeline, select the fox object.
2. Select the curves view (<img src="https://3460182399-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FwVx6bvwqEE7tD0TYOcfj%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-9411cf3f9336b6fc257c5a4d42ab0a03d44f532e%2Ficon_curves.png?alt=media" alt="" data-size="line">).
3. Identify the red line. This represents the changing value of the *Position.x* parameter.
4. Select one of the keys at either end of the red line.
5. Press the **f** key on your keyboard to focus on the curve.

To adjust the curve, complete the following steps:

1. Select the square for the first key.
2. Drag the circular grip that appears towards the right.

Test your animation to ensure that the wolf has a head start, but that the fox crosses the finish line first.

The steepness of the curve determines how quickly the parameter changes. After you make the curve flatter at the start and steeper in the middle, the fox moves more slowly at the start and then faster in the middle.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.engagevr.io/engage/experience-editor/tutorials/introductory-animal-race/give-the-wolf-a-head-start.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
