Title: "Realisticness of Yelling"
Post by Uki on 06/18/03 at 08:41:59

Uki yells from (Hidden)

Doesn't this sound very unrealistic?

Well here is a solution that may solve this

Instead of Uki yells from (Hidden)

When you toggle the location sending thing it will appear like this:

Uki yells from the East but you are not sure where she is exactly at.

This would be way better but you will still never know where the exact place of your Nightmisting friends or enemies.

hmm the thing is you can only yell for 1`square (i think :d) so if it sais uki yells from the east. you exactly know where she is :D

it's 1 square for yelling, not including the one you are on.

although it probably wouldn't be time consuming for i jlh i still consider this a waste of time in general. it's just yelling, it's mainly used by people trying to get staff attention or people taunting eachother on townborders and it works for all of it's purposes. so why mess with it?

i don't agree with the "somewhere close by" part, as if someone yells, you can hear the direction they are coming from, and therefore know where they are.

You yell to be heard and noticed, /toggleloc shouldn't effect yelling.

But i agree with dognapot, time could be better spent.

I don't agree with you Dognapot, little things can also improve the game alot. As the game goes P2P, work has to be perfect. Perfection is needed to make a wonderful game. Though this is a small change, large amount of small changes can make the game better. Only lazy people who don't put effort in to the game will say that time can be used better.
