I'll probably talk later about the ship/ground combat in STO, but I wanted to take a moment now to mention something I meant to include when I was talking about the character creator last night: it is ANNOYING AS HELL to try to change anything, because my character is turning her head back and forth every couple of seconds.

I'm trying to adjust something like the width of her head, so I want to look at her head from the front. But no, she's turning her head back and forth like there's something fascinating moving around off in the distance that she has to watch. Forcing me to CONSTANTLY turn the model around to keep her oriented properly. The reason for this is that the character creator uses the same idle animations. I went through all of them in the body editor (thankfully there were more poses to choose from than there were in Champions) but in every single one of them, the character was constantly scanning the horizon, and my ability to edit minute details on her head was suffering because of it.

They need to either tweak the idle animations for the character creator, or give me a little pause button somewhere. The character creator has a lot of options, yes, but it pisses me the hell off because of this stupid animation issue.

Okay, that's all. It's out of my system now.
