This probably has a pretty simple fix but I can’t figure out why my curve tool keeps acting like this when I’m mapping out the vertices. It acts a bit strange when I try to form a smooth curve. At the top there where the line curves, I expected it to have a much more subtle curve but it sort of jolts every time I try to create a nice curve.
That looks like it’s based on the degree of the curve you’re creating. Maybe you just need to be adding more control points? That’s how I do it, anyway.
I tried that already 
No matter how many control points I added, once I tried to create that curve, it jolted
Its just something like a more rigid U curve. Like a bracket with curved corners. So I start with a straight line, plotting out enough control points as I go along, and then as soon as I try to make the slight bend before the next straight line, I get this issue
have you tried the different types of curve tool?
CV, EP and bezier; each one of them is working in a certain way
Come to think of it… I might have been using EP Curve tool all along. Thats the icon I kept clicking straight off the shelf, without crosschecking that it was the CV curve. That would make so much sense. Ill check
