Fix pterosaur wing animations
I'd like to point out an issue with the wing animations of the pterosaurs that are in the game. It's most obvious when diving, sitting, and sleeping. The wings bend at the wrist, folding the palm up against the lower arm. This is anatomically impossible for pterosaurs and makes some of their poses look very awkward.
I would love to see this fixed since it's a major accuracy error - the hands point nearly 180 degrees in the wrong direction during certain animations (ouch!)
I've attached an illustration to help visualise the issue. Thank you very much for your consideration!

mutedmirthooh i never knew this! The only thing that might stop them reanimating it is if it looks right/wrong from a gameplay pov like making the dive look more streamlined.
But thal really does need improved animations and emotes -

FluseCompletely agree. But I think simply folding the wing at the correct joint would automatically make it even more streamlined than it already is. Having the hands straight in front of the face instead of twisted around makes diving/swimming look a lot more natural and believable.
