Undocumented changes

[Healyhatman]

Ado is harder for omni? You're right, that must mean that Foremans, ToTW, CityWhompahs, Omni-only items with no clan substitue....... don't count :P

[Fhtagn]

I am not sure, if it is new. When I am Casting Unpolluted Crystals with my mp and filling them with the source, then there is a blue ring like an area nuke.

[Healyhatman]

Nope that's not new, it did that to me before

[muha]

I didn't see this documented anywhere, or reported. The direction you face when gridding into the city was changed. This can lead to problems if you are suddenly facing into a bar Wompah.

[Enno]

Just some things I've noticed:
1. My yalm seems to bob gently when flying - quite nice but sure it was very static before

That's because I found out there was a "hover" animation for those that wasn't being used, and enabled it. Same for the parrots. And remotely related, tutoring kits & other items.

My keepers feet glow ?

I didn't know about that either. They didn't do that before? Might be some code cleanup doing that.

Undocumented change: the new skill window sucks more than a porn star.
It also loads 2 secs. Undocumented as well.

I did mention this on this forum before the patch. Since it was the only thing we knew about prior to patching, and didn't feel we should wait another week with the patch just because of that, we decided to fix it later. Plus, the fix turned out to be even more hairy than we expected (means it'll need more time to test, and an extra week wouldn't have helped).

Enno, I meant the skill window looks like crap and looking at it, I feel totally disoriented. The old one was best.

[Technogen]

I have to agree with octo it's harder to read the skills currently. I honestly cant say what a good layout fix would be, having them in vertical rows like this

Skill1 ###
Skill2 ###
Skill3 ###
Skill4 ###

and so on would be easy to read but then you have the problem with not enough room for the infromation text about each skill at the bottom.

Another feature, the dogs walk sideways on hills and if you crawl you will tilt up and down the hill too.

MA fist's show when in yalm like old times

Ummmm we are playing 2006 mate not 2001 where this places used to be popular.

Imho you should have better waited 6 month with this patch

I noticed a nice little surprise on my doc. When I use the IS book (haven't tried the ToTW book) there is the expected ray of light along with a new praying motion. A very nice touch.

Mayby there is a connection with those 2 issues.

This is ridiculous it takes about .5 seconds to select a destination and hit go

Guess you should learn alot about GUI and hitting unneeded buttons...

[Healyhatman]

I just mean it's not a massive deal.... if they make it double-click so you don't need to hit that go button then? It does prevent unwanted clicking though, and updates the overall look of the destination selection window

Both options should be enabled.
Both select and click Go and double click.
Most people feel annoyed to have to move the mouse and click extra button, most people even feel annoyed having to touch the mouse at all, so i'd also suggest numbering the entries and enabling hotkeys (1, 2, 3 etc)

[Healyhatman]

That's what I meant by "so you don't NEED..." yes both options == fun, but people probably won't use the funky go button anymore

I am so glad this is confirmed...I thought I was taking crazy pills (which is still debatable). I mentioned this yalm thing a couple of times in org chat and just got blank stares.

I'd prefer if FC concentrates on more important problems than some stupid windows and buttons .

Like what? PvP balance?
GUI is the face of the game it should be easily accessable and should not annoy people. Right now I don't feel like playing at all, because every time Im on the run the camera starts wiggling around which results either in my death or stucking in geometry/falling to RK.

Even better: Don't show the window at all when an org doesn't have towers... get me into the city without asking.
