The question I have is how exactly do you get all four legs of a dragon to move forward and back all at once? I am trying to make it walk forward for a bit realistically.

When I use the following code, the dragon's legs doesn't move forward and back at all but makes the dragon slide:

Do together
dragon.frontLeftLeg.lowerLeg, turn foward, 0.1 revolutions
dragon.frontLeftLeg.lowerLeg, turn backward " "
dragon.front RightLeg.lowerLeg turn foward " "
dragon.frontRightLeg.lowerLeg turn backward " "
dragon.backLeftLeg.lowerLeg turn forward " "
dragon.backLeftLeg.lowerLeg turn backward " "
dragon.backRightLeg.lowerLeg turn foward " "
dragon.backRightLeg.lowerLeg turn backward " "

When I use this:
Do together
dragon.frontLeftLeg.lowerLeg, turn foward, 0.1 revolutions
dragon.frontLeftLeg.lowerLeg, turn backward " "
dragon.front RightLeg.lowerLeg turn foward " "
dragon.frontRightLeg.lowerLeg turn backward " "

Nothing here
dragon.backLeftLeg.lowerLeg turn forward " "
dragon.backLeftLeg.lowerLeg turn backward " "
dragon.backRightLeg.lowerLeg turn foward " "
dragon.backRightLeg.lowerLeg turn backward " "

Only the back two legs of the dragon moves forward and back.
Do any of you know what I am doing wrong or how I can make all 4 legs move forward and back as the dragon travels forward?

Thanks

Somtimes 2 commands done together will cancel eachother out, try making them in more individual do togerthers

Example... dragon.front RightLeg.lowerLeg turn foward
dragon.frontRightLeg.lowerLeg turn backward

Done together and they will cancel out eachother.

If you need to do it in a do together statement, you could try the do in order inside of that. I've had to use that to make a mummy walk.

That works.
