Could we have character size change in Edit Charater? Like from 0.8 to 1.2 or 0.9 to 1.1?
That way we could RP that. Also xenos could say “focus that taller tall” hahahaha

I think it’d look weird
Also, power gamers will make their sprite as small as possible for those niche case scenarios where having a smaller sprite helps avoid attacks.

Well, there’s a few mechanical ways to do this:
- Modifying a player’s transform. If you’ve ever seen an admin scale up a person or xeno and notice it looks really, really scuffed, this is that but far worse, since it’s only on 1 axis. Doesn’t look good, crushes a bunch of sprites and can very easily create “mixels”
- Creating new sprites for taller/shorter. This is unmaintainable and is an all-around terrible idea.
- Abusing filters to make someone a few pixels taller/shorter. This one is actually super doable, and doesn’t look like shit to boot! Problem is, filters kind of murder client performance when you see more than a dozen or so on your screen at once, so this is pretty bad outside of admin shenanigans or rare one-off things.
Point is, there’s unfortunately really no way to do this well from a backend standpoint.

It’s a cool idea but you just know 0.8 would be the “meta” for a smaller click target (ala Oddjob in Goldeneye)

ngl, I feel the idea of changing your sprite size was either just a random thought you came up with, or taken from Splurt or some other erotic-RP server;
As last I checked, there is the ability to change your sprite size and yeah… super scuffed looking. 10/10 Do not go to Erotic-RP servers, save your eyeballs lads there aint nothing to learn or experience from those places.
