One thing that stood out to me in the recent screenshots of Starbound was that the stances of characters/npcs were different. Is there any chance that there will be various Idling Animations? How 'bout movement and combat animations?
Idle animations have been confirmed as 'personalities', if the devs are that awesome(more so then now) then perhaps they affect movement and combat. But as of yet, only idle animations have been confirmed as being different.
They're was a picture of a spritesheet a while back that seems to indicate otherwise. It had different sleeping, running, and jumping animations iirc.
Those were for pre-determined NPC characters, I believe, not players. Although, some of the NPCs do use the idle stances that have been confirmed to be in. I suppose that, like the girl in the blue dress, they do have several distinct animations. So, who knows? Perhaps it does affect some of your animations.
Here is the picture that accompanied the announcement of personalities. These are all player characters.
I wonder if you would be able to change your "personality", could make some great RP options. I would be kinda sad if you couldn't
Oh sorry i worded that kinda wrong, i ment if you would be able to "change" it ingame assuming you picked 1 at the start when you created your character.
The devs have only said that we'll be able to pick one when we create our character. The haven't mentioned anything about being able to change it mid-game.
Like on little big planet where you changed the emotion but treated as a full personality. that would be cool as just a bit more immersion
