Format and Placeability

Post by Erdrick »

1.) Better Format for the Equipping Area

I believe that the layout at the equipment screen is unorganized and messy. Before the isometric client, you had a better idea of where things went, and there was even lines connected to the body part where the item belonged. I don't know what happened, but now it looks pretty shabby.

2.) The Stackables and Placables... or something.

When I look at some other games, I see that you can put thing on tables and stack chairs, etc. This would add a whole load of realism, and it would be convienient for merchants and buyers/sellers, as things wouldn't have to be thrown on the floor to be traded.

These may have been brought up before (proabably by me), but they needed to be refreshed.

Thank you for your time.

I believe the word you are looking for is GUI (Graphic User Interface) and yes it would be nice to have that, even better if you could trade over a table. I'm pretty darn sure it would be real tough for the programmers to have stuff over tables.

Have a nice day. :D

Yes that would be nice to stack chairs.
There would be more room for people to wander around.

Why do people always say, 'This is going to be to tough for the programers.' or similar things. Ok sometimes things are to complicated.
But Surely (if its worth it) its about learning how to program that to work like that. Its about being able to have that in the game rathereven if it does take a bit of time rather than..nah to hard cant be botherd. Besides most of the people who say these things this dont program. (Do they know the programers?)

Do the poeple who speak other languages, when they dont know how to say a certain thing, or string a certain sentance, do they not learn it?

This is not a 'flame' at Kringin, its just that people say this almost at ever proposal.

Ah but that's because we do not want to seem too demanding :D
but rather place little suggestions in their minds, then withdraw, and let those suggestions ´plague them until something is done about it :D:D:D


very subtle and hush hus.

Another one which hasn't been brought up in a while, but is still an idea I like. Books. Books you can pick up and carry around and books you can write on. It would be pretty nice to be able to write a letter to a friend and leave it for them in the game. Maybe even use wax to seal it to keep it from being opened.

I am taking programming right now, but its a differrent language, beginners part 2 which is very hard; so I am able to give a good opinion. :D

And I still agree with this proposal. :)

Have a nice day. :D

QBasic is still the most awesome programming language. Just had to say that. Good day :D
