I'm trying to get a handle on this foundry business but I'm struggling a bit with (among other things) the ability to set behaviors in space. Is there any way to work around this? Or is there any idea when this might be corrected?
Thanks.

It's terrible but easy, and these Borg are way cooler than the mess STO and Voyager left us.
May not actually be "way" cooler or even "slightly" cooler.
The short version: One of the behaviors you can set for a ship in a map is 'Timid creature', which would originally have made it non-hostile even when you were attacking it. Now 'Timid creature' won't attack you unless you take first strike. Understandably, people ain't happy about it.
I'm sorry, I was a bit tired when I originally posted this. I meant space animations.
I can get my own ship to have an animation by interacting (even then only for the period of interaction) but I can't, for example, set a damaged ship to leak plasma or play the damaged animation. I can't make ships warp in or out.
In fact, when I try to use animations in space (on other ships without having to interact) I get an empty options menu. Then when I try to select a category I can only pick from ground animation categories which don't work for obvious reasons, lol.

HEY! This thread isn't about story vs. grinders! What is it doing here? Oh, right; this section is for actual discussion about the foundry itself. I forgot...

We need to wait for Cryptic to fix it
