The maximum height when making a lizard
Well. I was remaking the stats of my old lizardman character, Chak' Ysshir, with the new account system and everything went fine.
But, when I was putting numbers into the height, the maximum I could get to was 156cm. I can be wrong, but I always thought that lizards were way taller than humans and 156cm seems like the maximum of a halfling height.
If it's a problem and can be fixed, how can I redo my height?

bad advise...Nilo wrote:Umm.. does the height really make a difference in game? Just roleplay that you are taller than your stats say.
last time people advised things like that, afterwards everyone whined about that some stats were just not used when the char created and so they are screwed now...
never assume something you can change is not used.
it may already make a difference (who of you knows all the changes on the new server?) or might get included in the future.

Argh I'm really dreading going back and remaking my chars just for their height to be right ARGH
I mean 168cm is like around 5.45 feet right? thats not that short for a human I was really bumed though when i did kincent becuase i want him around me height and body size becuase thats how I pictureed him when i made him, remotly tall and skin.... yet a lot more muscluar than me

Um it might jsut be me, but i find it rather difficult changing the age and height, especially for elves who are in their thousands, and you can only go by 5's and 10's max.
You could have a small text box.. <INPUT type="text" maxlength="4">
This way they are between 1 - 9999. Which is more logical, and easier. And if you want to make a limit.. say from 100 to 5,000, you could add that to the PHP script. (Just a suggestion)
As for the height and age thing.... Why would it make a difference? And if it did, how would we know what is better and what is worst? Just because you are tall doesn't mean your a good fighter, and if your really short doens't mean your a bad fighter. If your medium that doesn't mean your any better either... I see how age can affect it, but how would height?

Perhaps shorter people in the future will be able to get into tight gaps and smaller places? Perhaps taller people will be able to reach things others can't?
I don't see why you have to assume the only thing these characteristics would affect is combat.
Just two random examples but you get the drift...
P.S One thing is not always better than another, different things give different advantages.

as ezo sugested, why do you limit all efects to combat?
he gave nice examples of how the height could affect gameplay... (which if i remeber right were in some extent also stated on the homepage somewhere... the example with the halfling crouching through a small pass after the brutal orc slayed the monster that was guarding it... )
and we will definately have the possibility to get more details of a character at some point... that way you would certainly notice the difference in height... (by seeing a small/medium/large/whatever halfling f.e.)
you should always assume anything you can change is used (or will be used in the future)
we wouldn't add those things if we don't intend to use them.
