Please Allow us to Customize the head of our space engineer! So we can take off our helmets in style. Extra Points if we can play around with the whole suit, or colorize individual parts of the suit.

This is absolutely necessary in multiplayer, and in role play, recognizing a colleague when name tags have to be turned off (stealth mode) is a vital part of communication.

An enemy could adopt the same uniform and impersonate a team member.

Custom faces would make this more difficult.

Having all the same face feels a bit like the episode of Red Dwarf - Rimmerworld

For that we have different suits and colors for it in SE1.

It is harder, though not impossible, to copy facial features that have a lot of parameters.

If multiplayer expands the number of simultaneous players would there be enough variety in suit colour and suit types?

Would a new players joining a server have to check all of the other suits and colours that have already been chosen by players already in the game to make sure that they do not clash?

If they are all on the same team and have a team colour and suit with a variation for rank how do you tell which one is which when the tags are turned off?

I have seen custom suit badges used, but there is a requirement to be quite close to read them.

If the name tag system was not part of the comms system it would make everything easier.

This may not be sufficient for content creators with role play where player differentiation for the viewer needs to be by face and voice.

Suit differentiation helps a lot but not for close up scenes.

Beyond in that, how about some faces from a diverse set of ethnic representation

Its a very niche thing, I can't even recall the last time i stopped and viewed my char but I guess for roleplay servers it might be needed. I think its most use will come for those who make videos in Space Engineers where such cosmetic stuff would be handy.

This would be huge, it would give a lot of life to the human level (as opposed to the ship level) of Space Engineers.

While I don't think we need to take off our helmets, I absolutely would love a face customizer.
