I started this in another thread sorry, but really wanted it here too...

Make use of the Items and Events in the guild cp section finally and give more control to servers on how they can access their guilds in-game? Maybe even an in-game guild cp? That'd be nice...

Yes yes yes one thousands times yes.
We have been asking for in game guild control panel for years.

Most servers nowdays end up scripting their own guilds/gangs/parties because having in-game access is more important than having a centralized database.
But having both would be very very nice.

I still keep getting random lag spikes where the client freezes for a second or 2. This is really annoying, especially when in events.

make a model editor dev tool
so we can make models and have the editor support them
and change skins ects
this should be done so the quality of the games graphics can improve

That's not needed for release, and makes almost no sense for a 2D game.

Did you capitalize your user title yourself or did somebody help you do that?

Model editor is a stupid idea. I don't know what you were even thinking. Honestly.

No I did,I can write proper but too damn lazy too on the graal forums.

But how is that Graal's responsibility? That's like saying they need to make an image editor so people can make images. Want 3D models? Use one of the already made programs out there that will do it better than Graal ever could.

As for the special effects being asked for above(Crono Trigger stuff) it would require masking and such that Stefan has shown no interest in. Sorry.

I wants better profiles. When You look at them, I don't think it should look like it's your own profile and you can edit it.

Scripted per-server profiles.

lol, I think he's concerned with the image going under than over another character.

[AlexanderK]

I'm sure it's been asked before, but I would love functions like
player.dontblock(); and player.blockagain();

i'd like that servers didnt lose their servername when they go down instead.

[xAndrewx]

    new GuiBitmapCtrl("iPhonePMWindowHead") {
      position = {32, 16};
      extent = {32, 32};
      
      bitmap = temp.head;
      drawimagerectangle(0, 0, temp.head, 0, 64, 32, 64);
    }

Displays the image as this: (btw temp.head = "head19.png")

Not sure who did that, but it must be:

bitmaprectangle = {0,64,32,32};

Requesting flag/function to set the player to invincible so he can't be hurt no matter what. That'd be awesome.

Or better yet:

The function would be called in some standardly-named weapon. If the function/weapon doesn't exist, it would default to this, which replicates default behavior:

PHP Code:

//#CLIENTSIDE
public function getAttackDamage(attacker, damage, weapon) {
  if (player.level.nopkzone) {
    return 0;
  }
  
  if (player.guild == attacker.guild && player.guild != "") {
    return 0;
  }
  
  if (player.ap == 100 && weapon == "sword") {
    return 0;
  }
  
  return damage;
} 


This would give you much greater flexibility and also allow you to change damages based on different types of hits. Something similar could be done for AP taking on death (serverside).

Function hooking would be really useful.

It only has limited use: for GuiWindowCtrl it defines the title offset, and for GuiTextEditCtrl it stores the x-offset of the visible text (read only).

V6 still won't open on a non-primary screen with dual screens up.

On Linux if I have it maximized on my secondary screen, it doesn't run full speed for some reason...

Hey can v6 have server specific options so I don't have to re-enable masses on UN after I disable them on Zodiac?

This can be implemented in script, doesn't need a client update

Wouldn't that require every server implement it?

Wouldn't that require some sort of cooperation amongst the managerial Graal community as a whole?

Wouldn't that require a miracle?

Since v6 has the options windows scripted into the client...just the scripts of those options windows would need to be changed. (At least I think)


On the subject of server preferences...can we please have a "Favorite Servers" list on login?
(It could be as easy as having a favorite button in the start menu while on a server...or even on the server list. When your on a server and press f8, there could be a favorite button in the upper right pane or something)

Or just add it to Login so all players get this script by default.

No, privileged scripts can either write to server-specific scriptfiles folders, or to the root of the scriptfiles folder for all servers to read. The settings can just be stored in those folders by the playerlist script instead of the root folder. I'll look at it when I get some free time.

So do it

[WaDaFack]

You should be able to modify your playerlist; i.e. you can add different lists, etc.

[smirt362]

Any chance we can get a level layer for tiles over the player but not blocking in the new editor?

[nullify]

Custom section for frequently visitied UC/unlisted playerworlds, because this is a new and innovative idea that has never been mentioned before.
