1. I might have exaggerated a little, but point stands.
2. Why don't you click the critters when chasing?
3. How much speed advantage do you actually get, given both parties are experts at clicking the critters in your opinion?
4. Alright, hotkey to click furthest critter in a general direction is not full automation.
5. This one is something I really need explaining, how does this change affect water consumption?
6. You are saying that you were only catching up to people when they ran out of water so far? Not because of bad drinking or thanks to critters?
1.It doesn't.
2.We do click critters when chasing and yet the gap increases.
3.Quite a bit actually, i always managed to get away quite quickly after finding a critter (especially a bunny but i would be happy even without bunnies being extra op) since it can result in me catching the said critter or finding another critter in a slightly different direction that makes it chasing the previous critter not good for the chaser, or i can just pick the critter up if i get lucky enough for it to not go into bad direction (which actually makes it worse for the person chasing too). And the super important part is that unlike speedboosts the critters give gap to THE WHOLE group, so you can actually create more gap without leaving behind your party.
4.Nobody has that (You would see it in their pvp videos), stop making shit up. Biggest thing for clicking critters are auras (that are in nightdawg's client) that put a circle around them that you can click. But ard bootleg has the ability to make the critters bigger for similar effect, or you can just click on map. Stop making it seems as if people had scripts to click critters for them just because most of your players refuse to improve and learn how to click them. I can imagine the narrative already "oh he was clicking the critters so fast i couldn't click them before him, he must have some script"
5.Chases are longer, therefore people need to run for longer, thus they waste more water, hence the possibility of running out is greater (mind you, ppl ran out of water before but that's bcs they brought 1-2 waterskin, now you can run out even with 3-5 that were recomended to those players that cried on forums about it).
6.Obviously people not clicking critters made it easier to catch them, but just because they choose/are unaware of this mechanic doesn't make it disadvantegous for escaping in general. Chasing someone competent was basically impossible as they could just click 2-3 critters, get a speedboost and be out, basically when you saw someone running well you just left them bcs you knew you didn't have much of a chance to catch them (without doing stuff like going ahead on a horse, tping to thingwalls, using roads around your village, etc.).
