PKO developer wishlist

[lifeas]

This is a list of items that would be nice to have (even though are low priority).
Feel free to add to the list:

• Short cut keys to turn off various types of chats i.e. World, Trade Etc.
• Toggle screen spin when double right clicking (still be able to use manual screen spin/ Home button for default view)
• Use ship manufactured items whilst sailing/moving (instead of having to stay still).
• Toggle accept mentor on or off to prevent new plays spamming mentor invites.
• Remove abusable mob drops i.e. smuggler NSS (prevent gold sellers and 24/7 farm of low leveling spots.) OR putting further thought in to auto attacks i.e. limit it to 1 min etc.
• Prevent cool down bugging i.e. if a skill or manufactured PVP items are not actually cast, cool down is not triggered. (Though I can concede at this point being able to skillfully bug your opponent it is some what part of PVP).
• Make it possible to use Squid Emotes with a keyboard short cut (i.e. Alt Gr + 0-9) - Leba
• When you die from a player in a maze there shouldn't be a death/durability penalty. - Zer0x0

Explain purpose on that one? you want a function that spins 360' for fun?

If i recall correctly, the camera roatation was a added feature for TOP 2, that made the camera rotation both flexible upwards and downwards,

example: when you zoom on your character, hold down right click as you move the cursor upwards or downwards, to create a special angle above your character, this was possible in TOP2, i belive she reffers to this

That's called Pan-zoom, Many hated it.

I think what she is refering to is when you double right click your camera automatically centers itself with the map. I think she wants an option to turn it on and off

If you remove it from Smugglers, people would switch over to other low leveling spots and we'd have the same story except lower level players who wanted to farm smugglers would be unable to. I think the current time frame for auto-cast is fine for what it's supposed to be used for (i.e. PK), though it could be lowered a bit.

Prevent cool down bugging i.e. if a skill or manufactured PVP items are not actually cast, cool down is not triggered. (Though I can concede at this point being able to skillfully bug your opponent it is some what part of PVP).

Cooldown not being triggered if the item fails to cast is a bad idea since, as you said, someone can cancel it and it is part of PK. However, canceling an item (i.e. using a flash bomb, but not throwing it, instead right clicking to cancel it) triggering the cooldown is worth discussing, since it can lead to a mess and I don't really see how it helps keep things under control. Same with any right-clickable items (including sea manu such as Flamers).

@Zankza This, when double right clicking any were (used when canceling a skill in PvP) the camera angle centers to default and you quickly have to spin it back around (same function can be achieved when you press the home key)

I understand your point, but I would think low levels would still go there to level and make money off the Old Tickets and Rainbow Glasses. currently I see players who farm there 24/7 flogging off new stacks of NSS every 2 days. Personally I only go there to level disciples/ farm BBQ sauce since I make currency though other means.

So what's the issue here? Flooding NSS or not allowing new players to farm and level up on Smugglers?

As for the topic at hand, I would like to once again suggest to make it possible to use Squid Emotes with a keyboard short cut (i.e. Alt Gr + 0-9). The skelly emotes are awesome and people have grown to love them, but I think the nostalgic squids should start showing up again as well, since you hardly ever see them anymore.

NSS are currently the only good method of generating and geting currency flowing into the game. I dont see why it is a problem

Mystic Chests, Monster drops.
Edit: Might be going off-topic here... point is, too much NSS being obtained isn't necessarily bad, but people taking over those spots are. Not to forget, removing NSS makes this a much less enjoyable farming place for new players.

So succinctly;

1. Smugglers drop decent loot and exp for low levels (even if NSS was not a drop).
2. But if a low level goes there (lets say lv 30 swordsman) they have no chance against Auto magma/looters which occupy every spot.
3. Alot of these auto magma/looters are owned by the same people (somewhat conjecture but have seen some all log on at same time).

Bottom line whilst this is within game mechanics you can rule out smugglers as a leveling spot now, since it's 99% for gold farmers to abuse.

Tbh the only reason I could see players vehemently denying this is if they partake (since this was been an issue even in TOP1&2).

Just sayin

This is correct, leveling in abandoned mine as a low level player I found alot of NSS. For lower level players it's a great source for gold. However when it comes to smugglers I think we can agree it's players like the one I screenshot who are just there to gain debatable-y unfair advantages.

Also in demonic world when you die from a player there shouldn't be a penalty but you still lose exp/voodoo doll
