Being attacked while busy

[cinder heart]

It would be nice not to be attacked all the time when I look at the supplies in my horse saddles. It seems that the auto attacks you when looking inside your saddles. Not very fun or realistic.

Agreed it would be fab... At least it would avoid constant ON/OFF the map just to pick up and change armors or weapons from the horse.
Same when we look at the tasks list, you need to click to validate the current one and to make the next appear.
If the game could PAUSE it would be great 🙂

Just turn your wifi off before checking ya're inventory

Then turn it back on once ya're done

I usually run off the map but it can be inconvienient. And its been suggested before that we should be able to adjust autocollect from global.

I don't think the inventory will become protected though because otherwise people could use it mid battle to pause and swap out weapons and armor during an active fight

[hot jasper]

Yeah , solid point . If inventory pauses the game , it makes active fights way too easy

[dense sedge]

Well i did't say it wouldn't be nice but i can understand why it isnt

[hot jasper]

I'm not saying it would be bad , but as a canyon and spirit cave fan , i want the mid-fight armor swaping to stay

The Frontier is a dangerous place — you can get attacked at any moment, even while managing your inventory 😄

[molten plaza]

Hmm, can we propose alternate auto mode instead then?

• Player don't move.
• Player auto attack those within range.

Doesn't pause, but at least give us chance to protect ourselves while checking things.

[molten plaza]

Oh, I prefer proper solution, than unofficial temporary workaround

[rugged elk]

I agree, you should be able to look at inventory without being whacked over the head or eaten alive

[hot jasper]

No ... if inventory pauses the game , intense fights become basically ... nothing . A part of combat's charm is to quick swap armor or weapons mid-fight . With that lost ... what will be fun in combat ?

Best is to just exit the zone , where it is completely safe . Or just avoid looking in your inventory for too long .

You would have to have a system to only allow access to the inventory while not being attacked. But then people who switch gear mid fight would be hindered. But also thats probably too complicated to program. They can't even get chat to work or match alliances fairly.

Sadly it also means that its unlikely we will ever be able to adjust auto settings without being attacked for the same reason of exploitation.

But i still think being able to adjust the auto on the gloval map shoukd be possible

[hot jasper]

The last paragraph is great

[dense sedge]

Well if you are on global you won't be attacked. So i can't see a reason why you can't pop out and fix it. Maybe the controls can be in your pack. Or under the VIP header or something.

[cinder heart]

My point here is that the system seems to AUTO attack you just about every time you look at loot, horse inventory etc., this happens WAY to often and degrades the fun of the game.

Yes, you can go, "out of bounds", and be safe in certain situations, but less often than needed and you automatically go back to where your horse is.

The system I am sure has a frequency, timer, or some sort of code for attacking, it would be a simple fix to say don't attack this often when Cowboy is looting, inventory search, etc.

I am not saying pause the game, I am saying reduce the number of attacks.
