Game Development: Fall Time Frolicking

[czaper2]

I like how the debate is what button to use to transfer massive amounts of bullshit from place to place, when it should be about the best ways to remove or reduce that amount instead.

There should be a chance of having something nasty in a leaf pile, like sharp objects or angry animals. Large stones that one could hit his toes into etc.

How do you reach the conclusion that these two discussions are mutual exclusive?

i would suggest to follow what Amber /ardenne's client has established as a standard for shortcut key's

Namely?

Either way, the point being that Shift has come to be used in many other places to initiate "multi-actions" (such as, area-harvesting, area-sowing, pick-up-multiple-items, &c), and so it would be consistent to use it as such on item transfer/drop as well.

the worst of the combo's tha can be made with this key's should be ctrl shift LMB

I agree, which is why I suggested Alt-Shift instead.

shift + click to transfer item
ctrl + click to drop
Is the standard.
Combine with alt to transfer or drop all identical items.

Hey Loftar, ill point few ingame buttons that are in my opinion god tier, I loved them in Ards client

- button to add 9 / 12 coals at the time
- button to switch items that you hold in hands to traveler sacks
- button to switch items in hand to any weapon
- button to switch hands to sword and shield
- buttons to switch combat schools

generally most of "extra buttons were epic, they were to make life easier and you should consider evey single one of them )

from shortcuts I would like mostly:
- more camera options ( consider sky texture )
- hide gobs

[jordancoles]

Please copy the key commands from Amber client when possible

Also cool leaves and changes to animal hunger

[shubla]

- more camera options ( consider sky texture )

But what would one do with the sky texture when you do not even see the sky!

Nice little update!

Am loving the leaves, piles, colours and them falling everywhere, glad you have included a curiosity from them too.
Animals eating less during the winter is a relief!

Good to see you finally making some more changes to the default client.

The hat is just my type of thing too, off to the shop to buy it ...

Yeah, tbh it would be good, as others have said, if you can incorporate as much of Ambers shortcut keys as you can, simply because everyone is used to them and it makes life easier for all of us and gives some encouragement to actually use the default client, if needed, rather than just not play.
