DEV BLOG: Upcoming Quality of Life Changes

Can we add a similar background to the chat window?
Great QoL improvements btw.

Nice upcoming updates. (some I like more than others, but that’s personal choice)

Reminder: inventory/storage width!!!

There is just one thing I can’t understand why it doesn’t get a change, the thickness of the scroll bar. That would be such an big improvement

Hope ALL the TP’s on every planet also …

Been years I have to fly to several TP’s to go mining there cause even if I used them, they where never in the list so I just ignored them and never went mining there again.

Can we please stop distracting players with the small stuff and tell us an update to UE5?

Try to go to the center of TP and make sure you see a message: TP discovered.
If you just come to tp from side and use it, it not always gets discovered, but going to center works all the time.

Wow this is a big one! QoL indeed. Love absolutly all of this. Great stuff!!

While I don’t have use for all those fixes, I really appreciate that something is finally happening and I’m sure that there are plenty of players who will be happier with them.

I won’t be able to check it out, though, because I can’t log in. I created support case #452194 last Friday and nobody at MindArk looks at it.

WAITAMINUTE…

Correct me if I’m wrong, but it seems NONE of the fix requests in this thread were done?
https://www.planetcalypsoforum.com/forum/index.php?threads/ui-release-feedback-thread-part-3.301459/

Why did we go through the hassle of that thread if you weren’t going to fix anything?

That implies you worked with some players to get feedback, yet I don’t seem to see any real connection to the many issues mentioned in the above thread (and many other places, for the record)

Why ask everyone their opinions if you are only going to go grab your info from others under select situations?

Well, Caly and Aris lag free and without frame freezes would be quality of life. Actual interface for shops with sales info saved and better price input system would be quality of life. Chat color, well, ok.

What exactly are you hoping to get? I use the message center info to update my spreadsheets on what is sold and for how much. They also updated the interface so you can type in prices now instead of having to click through. I’m actually fairly content with the shop interface when dealing with 400+ item points when restocking. I’m sure there could be improvements, but it seems like what you mention is shops is actually working ok or better than it used to.

Im sure the shop interface has been updated thru time, not gonna argue, but, the annoyng number 1 there that has to be deleted every time. Cant it be just empty box? Second, auction sales have all nicely saved in Message Center, im pretty sure that something like that can be implemented in shop interface. Instead just appearing in MS and then self-deleting. Also, lot of MU is shown in percentages. It would be nice when adding to tt for interface to show automatically added MU percentage. Right now its a guesswork or using out of game calculator.

But im not about that. Im sure that for some people chat color and semi-opaque background on active are priority one. For me,tho nice, they are pretty much on the last place on list of improvements that can be made. Sorry to be kind of party pooper :slight_smile:

I do get the message … But when I want to go there after, the TP is not on my list.

BTW, I’m not the only 1 having this problem. Some friends told me they had the same thing after an update.

And reporting this to MA … the same old message that they will look into it, let’s hope this will change

Happy to see some useful improvements. This is good stuff!
:love:

Maybe some things are harder to fix than other things, and some things you wanted fixed will be fixed in a later update?

Those changes are welcome. Could you look into jiggling NPCs as well? Using them causes the whole screen shake which makes me nauseous a little bit, especially when I’m hungover.

ABDUCTION PREVENTION not implemented…
Burglars lure player in space and loot them .. should be mandatory confirming the onboard via a popup that requires typing Y and confirm

Imagine steam users reporting i was kidnapped and robbed of my possessions

Make it possible to show the server shutdowns warnings on System instead of only on Main chat!!!

A simple QoL change in options ā€œOnly interact/enter on your own vehiclesā€, basically prevent requesting access to other’s vehicles etc, would be a most welcome change.

These vultures who kidnap people may even take newbies who don’t know better, if you want to improve player retention and player TRUST. This should be a priority… They do not care if a person will quit they just want to steal their loot using a shitty system in a way it’s not meant to be used.
