Matrix Dragon Wrote:As for changing animations and emanation points... I doubt that'd happen. If nothing else, all attacks have a certain action time, and the sorts of glitches and hassles that would come with making multiple animations for it? Bleck.
Given that (based on some previous issues and things I've read) animation times don't *have* to line up with activation times for the engine to work, I'd take the same "let the buyer beware" attitude that I have with costume parts that clip. If someone wants to use an animation that finishes faster than the attack, resulting in them apparently doing nothing for a second or two before they're done? Fine. If someone wants to use an animation that'll never actually finish, because it gets interrupted by the next thing in the chain? Fine.
Barring that, you could still argue that at least only-affects-self toggles could be done without producing any real issues.
