Currently everyone is the same height which is boring.
What if Roblox added a slider under the "character" menu to increase or decrease a player's height?
Robloxians are about 5 studs tall which works nicely because it can easily be converted into 5 feet- the average size of a Robloxian.
Thus 1 Stud = 1 Foot
The range can be from about 4 studs to 6 studs so there aren't players with really weird sizes.
The scripting shouldn't be too difficult, make the slider in incriments of .1 studs and just add or subtract to the bottom of the legs, torso and arms. It would be a fun way to add more uniqueness to your character.
Problems:
- Will probably effect positioning of gear, possibly hats but it really shouldn't.
- Some game mechanics may be effected, players might be able to squeeze into tighter spots, or reach higher spaces or become easier or harder targets to hit. (That might actually make for an interesting game or the hitboxes might stay the same, who knows)
-Might effect clothing
Side Notes:
- Idea is not fully thought out, it seems cool though.
-The sizes don't have to be exactly what I've mentioned, maybe use meters instead of feet (Idk)
-Maybe have a "Disable Custom Player Height" option in Studio so if there is a game that requires all players to be a specific height they can turn it off to be fair, or even set every player's height to what they would like.
-It would add a new fun variable for scripters to play with and others to have fun with
If you have any suggestions or opinions feel free to comment below. Thanks for reading. |

I am 100% people would either use it to be one of the tallest people in ROBLOX or the smallest. |

Good idea but should be limited to avatar only thus fixing the second problem and I think it will affect gears and clothes too much since it would be like a package. I do not know how it will work with other packages though. Plus I am pretty sure it will be made into a paid option. |

or make it realistic,because our foot width is about 10 cm,if players foot also is, 1 stud is 10 centi meter. |
|

I have to agree with everyone else:
People either will use it to cheat through games or gain an ego and brag about their ingame height.
You want a game with dynamic height? Make some morphs and do it yourself for your own game.

What if you just get taller in roblox years?
For example,
Just joined: you look like a kid.
1 year: you look like a tween.
2 years: you look like a teen.
3 years: you look like a regular roblox figure.
Boom. |

@blaster How tall would I be?
But really, I'm trying to kindly say that the body morphs alone are enough. |

This is one rude community, sorry for trying to improve it. |
|
|
No dude, dont let them rain on your ideas, just ignore them. |
|
|
What I said was not rude, it was simply stating the problems with the idea, and what you can do if you want your own game to have this in it.

To everyone that says games will be ruined
He suggested that in studio, you can DISABLE heights. Useful for battling games. It will also be disabled by default for existing games... Is this a good side suggestion? |

no support cause oders will increase
everything is goomy |

"He suggested that in studio, you can DISABLE heights. Useful for battling games. It will also be disabled by default for existing games... Is this a good side suggestion?"
Why have to manually disable height changes in all of our games,
INSTEAD OF THE CREATOR WHO WANTS HEIGHT JUST ADD DIFFERENT SIZED MORPHS IN THEIR OWN?
