pls allow us to jump in tonic form
transforms that let you jump already let you glide
but I agree to enabling jump for most transforms
There are other seemingly simple things that I’d rather see them spend development time on, though, if adding this would take significant effort. but I don’t want to hijack this topic, so I won’t mention them

a lot of tonics do allow you to jump, and the ones that don’t are mostly things that just plain don’t have jumping animations in the first place.
You can glide with all of them, though (you have to run off a cliff or something with the ones that can’t jump, but they do work).
Some of the tonics are fantastically perfect for gliding while transformed.
This past Wintersday, I was consuming a whole bunch of tonics to progress my festive imbiber, and the last one I ate was a reindeer tonic. I was still in reindeer form and accidentally ran off a cliff that was really high up and hit space bar in a panic to open my glider and try to save my fall. I started gliding, but the glider skin itself didn’t appear because I was under the effects of a transformation.
In that moment I was ecstatic at the realization that in Tyria, you can be a flying reindeer.
One of these years during Wintersday I’m going to get a big group of folks to follow me around LA or DR somewhere, in reindeer form, gliding from high up rooftops. Hopefully we can find a Santa look-alike to follow behind.

Recently I have been utilising the (blue) quaggan and the Princess Doll tonics for my jumping/vista/JP shenanigans. The quaggan is hilarious for gliding too - it has a constant falling animation which is akin to the Truffle Shuffle. Both also dodge roll, for what’s it worth.
