[minor] [suggestion] misc

Post by RezoApio »

Some suggestion from my first hours of play.

Windowed Game as no minimize button. If I play in minimize mode, I love to be able to quickly remove the game from my display.

Options should allow to change fullScreen/windowed on the fly and also the other resolution mode for graphics rather than just at startup. (Maybe too much coding to do it on the fly ?)

Buy/Sell slider should allow clicking to directly set the approximative amount to buy/sell rather than just slide it from 0.

In the smith cave, you can see part of the dungeon that you have no rigth to see and/or you can highlight lever/doors/monster in spaces that you have not yet means to access. (Probably true for all dungeons)

After bashing the door and the chest of the magick vendor, I can open the middle door and click on her to sell/identify the potion I have just robbed. (Minor for me as it was just a test)

That's all for the moment.

Some kind of instant confirmation for buying or selling, like CTRL-click so we can skip the Yes/No would be good.

How about making weapons instantly equippable (without opening the paperdoll) from the the quick-keys boxes? It would make them more useful for non-magick using types. Opening the inventory and the paperdoll to equip a hammer to bash things, and then unequipping it, gets repetitive.

screeg: make your bashing hammer your alternate weapon, then you can swap it with the [ENTER] key and swap it again when finished.

Not a perfect solution, but it's what I do.

Well, yeah, except my bow is my alternate weapon. It's dangerous out there man!

I agree, a minimize button in Window mode is needed.
