The Amputate Slider!

How great would it be to be able to adjust a slider and remove sections of limbs? for example, you have a pirate av. you want him to have a peg leg. you grab the Amputate slider for the left leg, and drag it up to about 50%. done.
want to make a half-skeletal zombie? drag it up to just under the knee and elbows and build bones for the exposed areas.
it would also make for more flexibility in anthro and creature avs.

just an idea

That's a great idea, I was thinking something like that from playing City of Heroes, I wanted to import one of my heroes but he has a robotic arm, if we had an "amputate" slider or even an invisibility slider for limbs (as to keep the joints) we could add some things like robotic arms, peg legs, hell it has limitless possibilies. Would make designing a mech warrior av a lot easier, i mean if you could hide your whole body but keep the joints and just have a floating head or something than link the joints to that of your original av. Great idea, I wish I thought of it! lol.

i am remiss.
this idea came about froma discussion with josh credit where credit is due

OMG a flying torso!

That would cause problems with attachments...

No it wouldn't.

The 'arm' or 'leg' would still be there, but invisible/shrunken/deformed.

this has been suggested over and over since beta... along with being invisible & being non-human.

Oh well. Maybe some day.

The problem isn't, in my opinion, with applying transparency to our bodies. The problem is what happens at the stump? Either we get a nice hole into our torso, which isn't textured inside and therefore the hole acts as a window through us, or they have to figure out a way to pinch off the mesh at the stump for 100 increments of length for each limb.

That being said, I want it too.

in the scenario that I envision the affected limb would suck into itself. In that way there would be visible mesh at the stump.
