Title: For the next Version - Emotes
Post by: Stephen_Zuckerman on December 30, 2005, 08:34:00 PM
"By making the convesation enterable via the radial menu you can access it without leaving stealth mode (I think.) A server I used to play on had replaced the craft skills radial option with the "emote tool" equivalent convo. Which was really nice because you could activate it without canceling your current emote and without having to thrust your arms out agressively as you "use unique power" hehe. I think it also let you use it without leaving steath mode (which let you sit down while stealthed etc.)"

Just read this... And I think it's the best bloody idea I've heard in ages. Can we figure out how to do this? The crafting skills radial isn't used in Layo, anyway, thanks to our crafting system...

Well, its usable if you're standing next to a customization device to access the customization dialogue.

But, if we replace it and put a convo that links to the emote tool and dicebag convos I think that would be great.

Totally... Putting the Dicebag in there would make things so much easier, too. And maybe the Tradeskill Journal, while we're at it. Though I really would love to know how one could access thier own "Examine" window, if it's at all possible; I hate not being able to just read it at a whim, to remind myself of what people see.

Yay! people might take Weston's advice more seriously during DM quests when he says something somewhat intelligent... but then see those arms pop out... everytime they think I just failed a wis roll :P

I'm not too interested in the tradeskill journal being accessible here.  I don't need to access it when it disrupts the RP to do the unique power animation, and well, I rarely look at it anyway.

As for examining yourself: Right click on an empty quickslot and put the examine action in it.  Then use the quickslot and click on yourself heh.  You don't want to know how long it took me to figure that out.
