Forehead items vs Eye-level items

With the complete revamp of the UI for costume creation, I was kinda disappointed to see that we still can't have, say, horns and sunglasses. I know there's something about using the same anchor points, and far be it from me to know anything about the technicalities behind it, but I have an idea of what anchor points are and I have to ask...Why can't we just have two items on one point? If they were seperated into two categories in a way that miimizes clipping possablities (even though clipping is prevalent enough as is and some people such as myself use it to our advantage) then there really should be much of a problem. It's like when tails were listed under belts, then finally seperated into their own category. Why can't forehead details be their own category too?

This may-or-may-not be due to my recently failed attempt to create a demonic greaser wearing aviators.

The mysterious Djinn...Emerald Dervish (50+1 DB/DA Magic Stalker)
The psychotic inventor...Dollmaster (50 Bot/FF Tech Mastermind)

I believe you are right that anchor points are the issue but I also would love to do something like this as well.


I'd also like more options like the robotic arms for the legs because I have concepts that want to use more than just a pirate's peg leg.

The engine is provably capable of attaching multiple items to the same anchor point, and past bugs have caused this to be apparent. Once upon a time, if you picked one weapon set, changed your mind and picked another and then another, all previous weapons would stick behind and clip with the new selection. This is what created Thessalia's bowtana.

So, yes, I agree with the general spirit of the idea.

I'm hoping the recent new rig for the dog's/wolves at Halloween mean they're looking at rigs again.

Then again, given the whole addiction to 'New shinies are good, LOVE THE NEW SHINIES!!', expecting them to, y'know, go back and fix stuff (yeah, I KNOW that fixing it can sometimes take as long or longer, but it's short term vs long term here) is possibly a bit much to even hope for...

Alot of details need to be separated honestly. Id like to use my earmuffs and some goggles and maybe even a tiara as an example. Add more options to the costume creator.

Ear items
Forehead items
Eye wear
Horns

Id like to see them do another systems update issue like issue 16 when it added the still presently unfinished power/color customization. Because it's about time things like powerpool/patron/ancil/kheld/veat color/power customization to finally make it to the game.
