Oww... owwwww! Stop...pressing...that....buttion!
 
Praying, mining, baking, etc... Your keyboard hates it. You hate it. Let's stop it. When you push the action key, make the action contune until you move, or something. This is stupid that I must stick something in my keyboard and watch my screen for hours to get something from my diety. I can't do anything else either. Arg, so stupid.

I have lots of other things to say too, one of them is...

Change the entire system, keep the idea base. But really, this has got to change.

I agree... everyone "macro" in some way so... why keep it? X_X

Holding down the button works for me :x

That only works for praying, not mining n stuff... :(

*shrug* It's better to press it for mining and alike, harder for people to idle and it isn't as time consuming and commonly used as praying.

WanDaMan 02-15-2004 09:01 PM

I don't mine anymore.
I have to memorize my keyboard keys, A-S-D are all blank now no letters left on them :)
Aswell as my directional keys :p

zell12 02-15-2004 11:31 PM

Chris doesn't read. :(

protagonist 02-16-2004 01:37 AM

Heavy stone + small cylinder of (x) = praying

One of those birds that dip up and down = mining

haunter 02-16-2004 01:38 AM

Im tempted to go out an purchase one of those controllers with auto-mash to save my fingers ;(

Didn't those used to be illegal on 2001 or something?

haunter 02-16-2004 01:44 AM

I know the programs were, don't know about hardware though...

Hm, I think it was discussed for a little while.

Well, whatever, it doesn't really matter. It's a good idea anyway.

Milkdude99 02-16-2004 01:48 AM

Using hardware is not manipulating the game as such unlike the programs that do so I don't see where that would or even could be illegal to do.

My methods are less costly.

It isn't exactly manipulating Graal if a program makes your computer think you are continously pressing a key.

zell12 02-16-2004 06:48 AM

How is it illegal? The program sends a command that you are pressing 'd' etc., insted of the keyboard.

Anyway, point is, this is stupid, and my keyboard is hurting. :(

Satrek2000 02-16-2004 06:53 AM

I don't have a problem with mining or praying - I usually watch some episodes of a nice tv-series in front, bless the always on top feature ;). As for baking, where do you button-mash there? :confused:

zell12 02-16-2004 07:11 AM

Sometimes you can pray for hours and hours. You eventually get d/c if you dont move every 15 minutes. I don't want my computer being taken over by one buttion. :/

Deek2 02-16-2004 07:18 AM

The problem lies in the concept itself. Having people button mash is exquisitely.....retarded.

You need a profile adjustment.

WanDaMan 02-16-2004 10:49 AM

Just a wacky idea. I don't know if you can 'quick key' mine?; if you can save it as P like pray, and then hold it down :-)

SlikRick 02-16-2004 11:00 AM

They should just get rid of the button mashing -_- It a redundent concept to just sit there and press/hold a button for hours on end. They should make it more interactive.

sage_scooby 02-16-2004 02:07 PM

Just a thought but isnt mining (hitting rocks with something) kinda reduntant in its own way? So doesnt button mashing seem similar (Hitting buttons with a finger)?

Side note: I dislike button mashing also.

KuJiGX 02-16-2004 03:04 PM

If you don't like it. Don't play it.
I haven't prayed in about like 6 months (nor have a played for 6 months)

You never read any of this, have you? Please, just don't speak.

haunter 02-17-2004 12:14 AM

I've been trying to think of an alternative to button mashing for ages (mainly for mining) None of the ideas were worth considering... :\

zell12 02-17-2004 03:14 AM

You push a buttion to activate the gani that shows you mining/praying... BUT it doesn't say "You pray over the alter...." It just shows you praying and when you stop, the gani stops. It only displays text that is useful, like enchantments, or relics, etc...

xManiamaNx 02-17-2004 03:26 AM

button mashing is about the only way to do mining.

zell12 02-17-2004 03:43 AM

No it isn't.

protagonist 02-17-2004 06:23 AM

Potato mashing is superior.

Yes, that's totally the right way to go in order to solve a problem! Go you!! :)

Nidonemo 02-17-2004 10:56 AM

That auto-press-button program is called "Auto-D"

It's not assosiated with Graal in any way AND it doesn't effect the game itself. As stated, it simply makes the computer use the D button repeatedly until the program is closed. It can be used with any game. :whatever:

zell12 02-17-2004 11:41 PM

That is not a solution to the problem. It is S T U P I D to make people do this. I never played any game at all that required to you hold or press a key for hours.

SlikRick 02-17-2004 11:59 PM

Why not have it so you press the buttom one time and it does the gani crap than it shows a status bar,for example(mining:-----) and it shows the status of the rock(like how much more it needs to be hit) and when the bar goes away the player stops and you get whatever was contained in the rock. This can be used as well for praying/blessing. Same concept just switch the script out a little bit ;)

zell12 02-18-2004 01:11 AM

That was said by myself and 10 other people in this thread alone. lol
