Sorry for the late reply Jeremie...been busy today. Yes unfortunately it does meant that you need to use a fixed set (which the animators here happen to prefer anyways) Without looking at the documentation I'm guessing that the StoreAction must be a command vs the SIStoreAction being a direct access of the object. In general working directly with the object is much faster in Soft and the object equivalents to the commands often have an "SI" prefix to them. Glad you found something that works fast for you.
