Ammo

[Syrith]

The questions explain themselves.

[Suicide_Run]

Nice, i was gonna ask if they can make a shorter command for ammo.

 

Another choice for viewing ammo bar I will suggest is that: Make it like a traffic light with only 1 bulb. Where:

Green Light = Ammo Left >50% of max ammo

Yellow Light = 50% > Ammo Left > 10%

Red Light = Less than 10% left

omg this topic is so great, i want an automatic ?buy ammo thingy

btw, they're 7-segment displays, not 8. =(

FYI: Asking questions does not make things happen.

Commanding things doesn't make things happen, either, FYI.

Blah, i use 8 segment displays at school (with decimal point), w/e

[»Ceiu]

Well, regardless... that won't happen. Since the server is the one who keeps track of ammo (rather than the client), it would mean constant updates to be accurate. Consider how often you fire. Do you really want to be receiving lvz updates for every shot so you can have a pretty display?

 

Clarification: A exact value display won't happen. Bars, percentages and other estimated displays are in the works.

[Syrith]

well something like ?a or ?ammo could be implemented quite quickly.

[Dr Brain]

We're making a LVZ display. I'm under the impression it will be something like Full, medium, empty, but don't know the exact implementation details.

THIS IS SOOOOOOOO NEEDED BRAIN.

 

because it is so hard to type ?shipstatus, or even to macro it.

 

The horror.

[Suicide_Run]

I just dislike when I shipstatus, I just a !@#$%^&* load of spam just to see 1-4 numbers

[Dr Brain]

?shipitems is more compact.

[DrumBum88]

i would deffinatly start to play again if the buying of ammo was automatic.

[Syrith]

?shipitems is more compact.

 

The problem with ?shipitems is that it's not aligned so some people may find it uncomfortable.

[Suicide_Run]

If brain thinks its ok to implement the automatic buyer....I suggest that it becomes an special item people can buy.

 

All it does is make you lazy ASSS think less and press a few less buttons so I dont think it should be free.

When did I say I was ok with an automatic buyer? I'm not.

[Suicide_Run]

Never said you were ok with it. Thats why there is a "If" right in the beginning of the sentence

[vetta64]

If there are so many ppl complaining, you could just make the amoo pack have more ammo in it. like you can just buy one ammo back that fills your ammo slots, and you still have to buy more ammo but dont have to keep typing ?buy ammo pack

 

Or on second thought maybe that just not what this is all about
