nines Posted January 14, 2010 Report Posted January 14, 2010 Ok well this suggestion is about color coordination, in this server...well everythings mostly based off color SO why not put a better system involving colors into the game. Basically everyone whos a pvper/gvger/woer has atleast 3 fcloacks 4 farmors or 2 fshoes (Just for regular people not rich people) and it can be annoying trying to find that one armor to equip it and using bm is kind of annoying for people who are clickers for equiping. So what im suggesting is Recoloring the item bmps of the farmor/fshoes/and the floack the most used the of the farmors to different colors like (Blue/Orange/Green/Purple/Brown/Teal/What Ever) and for example you could have Tao Tao - Blue Farmor Gr Tao - Purple Farmor Gr Gloom - Green Farmor Dev Dev - Blue Floack Skoll Ray - Orange Floack Fbh Dwiz - Purple Fshoes Fbh Fbh - Teal Fshoes This way instead of having to hover over every single armor that all looks the same to find it you can just look for the color and change gear accordingly. To script it wouldn't all that hard I'd reccomend making 6 copys of the farmor script line and changing the id number on them, and on the idum tabs just change them so they match with the colors. Also creating a Famor/Etc Color Exchanger where it reads the original id and allows you to exchange it to one of the new colors. :) Tell me what you guys think(I think it'll help the pvp system alot)
Shadi Posted January 14, 2010 Report Posted January 14, 2010 That's the disadvantage of needing that many armors/parts. You kinda choose for the confusion if you decide to have this many armors/parts. However I wouldn't mind if it got implemented, I guess it wouldn't hurt anyone.
Apo Posted January 14, 2010 Report Posted January 14, 2010 This isnt only scripting based, we would have to make a copy of all those items and make a npc like the valk helm exchanger and people will want their elite sets to have color too and will end with 50+ item dupes for a fancy color system. Id suggest that you get used to it im not a bm user myself and so i click often on my items but i order them to be sure not to fail
Devotion Posted January 16, 2010 Report Posted January 16, 2010 It's not a bad idea but I feel it's overall unnessecary (imo of course), especially when coder time should be spent towards other projects. Wouldn't it be easier if we just recolored the BMP's and let people card the way they want?
Cirrus Posted January 16, 2010 Report Posted January 16, 2010 For /bm users, you can just use the same color armor for every armor you have. But with the amount of coding involved as Apo said, I feel it's unnecessary until we have all the other more important bugs fixed.
