Unless the idea has changed since I last checked the Wiki, a feature in the organism editor will be a sizing board. From what I've read it will have measurements and a silhouette of a human, mouse and elephant. I think something that would be helpful would be if it also contained silhouettes of key animals in your ecosystem or animals you have encountered in your previous generation. This would make it a lot easier to compete or evolve with other species. For example, it would be no good if you were trying to compete with another predatory species and you couldn't tell how big they were when in the editor, you went to fight them and found out they were triple the size of you. Obviously you would be able to toggle this feature. I know the developers aren't thinking about multicelluar and beyond at the moment, but I thought this would be a helpful idea. Maybe it's not good at all. Perhaps it's the worst idea for games since Battlefront didn't have space combat, who knows. But reading this post at least would be nice. Have a noice day

Maybe in the board by default there would be only the mouse-human-helephant silhouettes,but you can add the ones of whatever animal from your biome you want

Nice idea there, the mouse-Human-Elephant seems to be good when dealing with Land Creature but what would it be for Aquatic ones ? Salmon,White shark and Blue whale?
Interesting idea, but is it possible?

a) It's impossible for an idea to be as bad as not having space combat in Battlefront b) This is a good idea, I quite like it c) There is some discussion on the Dev forum about Aware, but even if there weren't the community forum enjoys input about all stages at all times d) The only thing I would suggest is that it might be interesting to be able to toggle a switch that showed your creature versus the normal scale and then showed it versus every creature you encountered during your previous life pre-editor. And then of course there's always be the risk that the creatures changed size due to auto-evo.

I think there should be a bit more options to this besides just the three, maybe either 5 or 6. I was thinking say, Tyrannosaurus/Brontosaurs, Elephant, Human, Great Dane, Pigmy Shew? Or something Similar?
