Feature Request | 7936 | No | Characters | High | Unconfirmed | Daevaorn | | Cannot target players sitting on a mount | 04.12.2023 | | |
Task Description
A player that is mounted on a Rivnak or Drifter cannot be targeted, for actions such as trade, or even emotes.#
It doesn’t make a difference whether you click player geometry or the mount’s, you always end up selecting the mount over the player.
Even if one could argue for trading that it might be inteded (which I don’t think is overly realistic, since you can hand someone on a mount a loaf of bread), itt would be very strange to greet someone’s pet instead of the owner, when passing on the street, wouldn’t it?
(Selecting high priority since this seriously hampers RP supported with game-mechanics such as emotes)

Task Description
A while ago I spent some time fighting some enemies, like ~20 hours worth of it over a week or two, and my armor has never decreased in quality. I think this is awful for the item economy. There is never any need to create new and exciting armors since once you have the set you want, you will never need to replace it. Almost every other item you use decreases in quality. I suppose tools could also be lumped into this as they also never decrease in quality no matter how much I mine, harvest, craft, etc.

Bug Report | 918 | No | Engine | Medium | Assigned | durwyn | | Repair - Switching weapons | 27.02.2021 | | |
Task Description
when you repair a dagger for example you have to - equip it in right hand - do /repair and wait for it to end.
if you try to select the “weapon” which is being repaired you cannot move it. you get the message : “You cannot move an item being used”
BUT if you take another weapon, select it and put it on the weapon being repaired, they will switch themselves (i mean the weapon in the hand will go to the INV and the one in the INV in the hand) and the repair action will still be active. (the weapon you started to repair will be repaired, not the one after switching).
hope to be clear :p

Feature Request | 2631 | No | Movement | Medium | New | Elvors Amenoras | | Running up slopes should be more taxing | 26.03.2009 | | |
Task Description
I consider it unrealistic how terrain is (not) interacting with movement.
As far as I know, in real life, every meter up is as taxing as ten meters across. (The factor of 10 is from a schoolbok, it might be a good idea to verify this from a professional source.) Going downwards requires concentration to avoid slipping and falling, and a surprisingly large amount of strength to absorb the shock from “falling” the height would lose with every step. (Walk down 250 metres of a moderately steep slope with a backpack on your shoulders and you’ll know what I mean.)
In terms of game mechanics, this would mean: * When running upwards, the speed should decrease and stamina loss should increase, and the cumulative effect of these two changes should be drastic. It’s possible to trade one change for the other: keeping the speed unchanged and massively increasing stamina loss would force players to rest, keeping the stamina loss constant would call for a massive speed reduction. However, I think it should be a little of both since that causes interesting effects (see below under “game experience”). * When walking downwards, there should be no stamina loss (you can make the physics work for you), and you should be faster, but you lose mental stamina. The less your mental stamina is, the higher the probability of slipping and falling. If you fall on a too-steep slope, you continue skidding. Falling should do damage that’s proportional to the total weight (character + load), blunt damage (not much help from armor); skidding should do damage-over-time, armor protecting fully (essentially this is abrasive damage, which is similar to slash - but don’t give characters armor training from that).
In terms of game experience, this would mean: * Getting up on a slope is a time-consuming experience, and almost never worth avoiding the walk around the hill. People will stay on the paths in the valleys. This will cause more interaction between normal travellers (and make Cutthroat Lane work better for the Cutthroads, too). It will also make people who leave the road more likely to remain undetected. * The Settings team can make NPCs less accessible and less likely to be found by placing them on a hilltop, or in a valley behind mountain pass. * Players with maxed stats have less issues with upward slopes than newbies, but they will still avoid slopes unless they have reason to. * Hilltops will become a tactical advantage. An attacker will need far more time to reach a defender on the top, and expose himself to ranged combat for a longer time. (Take this into consideration when reducing the effectiveness of long-range combat spells; ideally, a mage would win against a fighter from a hilltop, and lose against a fighter on even ground.) * Hilltops also become a bit of a trap. Defenders forced to flee from a hilltop risk falling and getting overwhelmed. * Pursuing down a hilltop is problematic due to risk of falling. Defenders might want to hide a pursuit team in a nearby valley that’s near the height of the route of the attackers, though that would force them to split up forces. Decisions, decisions… which means tactical variation, which is a Good Thing when it comes to making the combat aspects of the game interesting :) * Reaching the Eagle Bronze Doors takes a lot of time already, making them even less reachable will no doubt make many players very unhappy. An alchemist that sells stamina regeneration potions at the bottom of the path up would help with that.
Just my 5 cents :) (and no, I don’t expect this to be implemented anytime soon :D )

Feature Request | 2658 | No | Inventory/Items | Medium | New | | | giveitem command for players | 26.03.2009 | | |
Task Description
Syntax: /giveitem [PlayerName] [Qty|All] <ItemName> [Any]
Playername is optional, otherwise default to selected target, fail if none selected
Quantity is optional, default to 1, All gives all in inventory/equipped
ItemName required, quotes needed for multi-word item names as in “Platinum Ore”
Any is optional, allows items in containers to be given. Omitting this protects containered items from being given accidentally, allowing players to put things in sacks or other containers that they want to keep safe, same as the Drop command.
Similar to GM giveitem, but with the following restrictions:
player and target must be in touch range
player and target may be sitting or standing
player and target must not be otherwise busy (fighting/crafting/repairing/etc.)
no restriction for target being overburdened (available slot/stack/capacity limits still apply, see Caveats below)
similar to PVP, players should have persistent selectable option for receiving given item(s): Always Accept / Prompt to Accept (default) / Never Accept
Along with the command, make Give an option to context menu, which opens a slot window same or similar to that which one gets when giving to an NPC.
Justification:
Caveats:
Makes using mules a little easier, as in an unattended mule with Always Accept can become a dump bucket for loot or Ore, however current trade rules allow this already, the only difference is that the mule must be attended to complete the trade, while not for receiving a Give. Eventual random spawns of monsters will mitigate this for loot, and miners still have to move all the collected ore to wherever it is to be processed or sold. IMHO the benefits to RP outweigh this issue, since miners have already worked around unattended trading to some degree, either by mAlting or dropping stacks while guarding in proximity.
Extending the idea, add a die-roll chance for target and near proximity observers to be made aware of the exchange. Giver’s Int. and Agility should apply, and Target’s Int. and Observer’s Int. should apply but I’ll leave it to devs to work out how to implement. Any exchange that is more than 1 single item should incrementally raise the chance of being observed. One might still have a good chance of slipping a couple daggers into someone’s pack, but a stack of 20 Ore would be nearly impossible not to notice. Sleeping target might also factor in.
A further extension might be an optional Sneak parameter whereby the Giver attempts to be especially discrete in the exchange, thus lowering the chance to be observed by the target or near proximity observers, but this should be mitigated by quantity as above.

1. Ability to teleport to the player from the petition window 2. Player side: /petition should open the petition window with a short introducing text (in another text window?) how to use the petitions (not to post wishlist items there, how to use (possible) categories..) 3. There should be a drop-down menu for selecting a category [Not Specified; Movement; Bugreport; Name; Event; Harassment; Quest; Miscellaneous] to classify the report. This could be used for statistical purposes post-process as well. 4. A button to mark the petition as URGENT which will add a parseable <star><star> URGENT<star><star> (<star> = *)to the header of the petition so our post-processing tools (aka gmbot) can forward/poke outside the game. (This is important!) 5. Before the petition is finished there should be a preview to check everything again, to make last changes. 6.

Feature Request | 2956 | No | Combat | Medium | New | Orgonwukh | Davide Vescovini | Combat system calibration | 19.04.2010 | | |
Task Description
Combat system calibration
Short version:
I propose that in general the amount of damage dealt by any weapon or magic spell should decrease with the distance from the attacker to the target. Also, fast weapons should generally deal less damage than slow weapons. The combat system including both weapons and magic has to be more balanced.
Elaborated version:
Damage (D):
This is the amount of health points subtracted when an single attack is successful. Examples for magic are:
For weapons one has to include the levels and stats of attacker and target. As a reference I determine both attacker and target to have maxed stats and levels, full heavy armour equipped and to use two weapons at a time in bloody stance. The weapon damage is the average damage including the failed attacks. One could either ask a dev to look this up in the database or do a numberof attacks and measure the arithmetic mean. For convenience I determine the damage of short swords to be 500 HP. This value is not the value specified in the weapons properties, but the “real” damage dealt.
Maximum attack distance (MAD):
This is the maximum distance from which an attack can be made. MAD can be measured in game units (the values you get if you type /pos). One unit should be about 0.5 metres. Examples for magic and weapons are:
Attack speed (AS):
This is the time in seconds (s) between the starting of the attack and the moment when the damage is dealt. Examples:
Damage per second (DPS):
This is simply D divided by AS.
Effective Damage (ED):
I propose to let the DPS decrease linearly with the MAD. I introduce a factor (F) with which you can put more or less emphasis on the distance weighting. Based on the above assumed value of damage for short swords, I propose that the ED with a value of 500 should be used to weight all weapons and magic attack spells:
ED=F*(D/AS)*MAD=500 or ED=F*DPS*MAD=500
For F=1 this simply is
ED=(D/AS)*MAD=500 or ED=DPS*MAD=500.
Let us fix F=1 here for now for convenience. If my proposal for weighting is too daring or too conservative, we still can talk about setting a different value for F.
What does this mean?
Let us look at the weapons first and assume that the values for short sword are as I wrote above: AS=2, MAD=2 and D=500. Then DPS=250. This short sword deals an average damage of 250 HP per second. Since MAD=2, ED=500 HP. I have nothing to object concerning these values. This is my reference for the calibration of other weapons or magic spells from now on (see below).
Let us look at the spells: With a short sword you deal an average damage of 250 HP per seconds from a max. distance of 2 units. With Summon Missile you deal a damage of 100 HP per second from a max. distance of 57 units. With Flying Rocks you deal a damage of 225 HP per second from a max. distance of 74 units. Is that fair? Does it make sense that more damage can be dealt from a safe distance? This “unfairness” is reflected in the ED values of the spells:
We notice that the value of ED is way higher for spells than for the short sword. Flying Stones also have a very high MAD and hence a high ED value. If we assume that my proposal is appropriate for evaluation of the power of weapons and magic, this means that Summon missile is 7.4 times more powerful than using short swords and Flying Stones is 33.3 times more powerful than short swords. I think that is quite a realistic reflection of the current state
Calibration
I propose to calibrate weapons and spells by setting the values of D, AS and MAD in a way that the ED is about the same for all of them. In case we use the short sword for a reference, we could adjust the values for Summon Missile and Flying Stones by reducing the MAD, for example To do this we solve the equation for ED in regards to MAD:
MAD=500*AS/D
Then the values for the calibrated spells would be:
If you think this attack range is too low, there is the possibility to calibrate the spells by setting the damage after solving the equation for ED in regards to D:
D=AS*500/MAD
Then the values would be:
It is also possible to calibrate the AS with AS=D*MAD/500. You can also try out different trade offs between D, AS and MAD as long as ED=500. As long as the ED is the same for all weapons and spells, the relation between damage dealt per second and the attack range is maintained.
Calibration will also be helpful once the attack range for weapons is implemented. Let us examine the calibration of the broad sword and let us assume that this sword has a damage value of D=750:
So the attack range is the same while the attack speed and damage differ. One might think that it is more important to increase the attack range instead of the damage because of the bigger size of the broad sword. So let us assume that the damage value for the broad sword is D=600:
This seems to me an appropriate representation of the differences between the weapons: A broad sword has a longer range and deals more damage, but is slower than a short sword.
Final notes
This is a proposal for balancing the combat system. All values of weapons and magic are either estimations or assumptions. Feel free to provide the true values, if possible. Since the ezpcusa server exists, this might be a good opportunity to try such a system out. My assumptions about the levels, stats, armour and weapon properties of attacker and target are subjective and should be discussed.
Limitations:
Maxed levels were assumed, the properties of lower lever levels are unknown to me. But when known, those levels can be calibrated as well. I did not include the amount of mana needed for the spells yet. A simple rule could be to have a linear relationship between damage dealt and mana used (maybe 1 to 10, so you can still kill a 800 HP opponent with 222 mana, which is the maximum at the moment as far as i know). While the attack area of spells is a circle with a radius of AD (you just have to be closer than AD, facing direction is disregarded) while the target is in the centre of the circle, the area for weapons is much smaller because the attacker has to face the target. It should be something similar to a triangle. This disadvantage of weapons is not accounted for here. On the other hand, it is assumed that a spell caster casts spells as fast as possible. This disadvantage is not accounted for here, either. If those differences between weapons and spells is considered too big, you can think about setting F to another value than 1 for an appropriate weighting. Once spells and weapons are calibrated, prices should as well be calibrated. You could either raise the weapon training costs or lower the magic training costs. Maybe doing both is a good idea.
Advantages:
Using this calibration, it is possible to design various weapons and spells which are different concerning D, AS and MAD, but they are weighted in a more appropriate way than it is the case now. Your choice of weapons is based on what you prefer: range, damage, speed or a weighting/combination of them. Combat can be balanced and become more interesting once players fight each other with different properties of their weapons and attack style. The work for the devs is small. You need to change a single value for each weapon and spell.

Hi,
the Drawing skill is not yet available. I propose the following idea for developpers :
Each save could rise the skill experience
Each new created sketch could rise the skill experience, significatively more than the save function
Each rank could rise the number of allowed element in the sketch
Each "special" rank (defined by developpers) reached could allow new elements (ie. curves defined by 3 points, new icons, symbols, legend, several pages in the same map ...)

Task Description
I would like to suggest an additional widget in the trade window that gives the total (NPC-trade) value of the goods offered, similar to the one for total tria offered. With the quality based pricing system, this could help to lower confusion and make trade and economy flourish. The obvious but neglectable downside is that players could abuse this to identify an enchanted items value without finding an NPC merchant. A solution to that problem could be found when thinking about a feature to identify such items (based on intelligence, dweomer detection, factions with merchants or whatever).

Task Description
The quest objective is to help a certain NPC find a missing object, that's what my char agreed to do. After finding the object and proceeding to final steps I suddenly receive a ready-made line "X listens to your story" and find my char spilling its friend and ally's whereabouts to X, with me having absolutely no means to prevent or stop it. Honest, it feels like being godmodded by the quest system and is awfully disappointing, to say the least. It also clashes with the general idea of quests being done ICly.
Dear Devs, please add a "not squealing" option, something like "I've just found it somewhere" and let the player deal with one of the main ingame alignments (Law) according to that player's RP. The way it is done now, it's not C&C, it's M&C, having to bear with consequences of the game mechanics, and somehow it doesn't feel right… at all.

It is only partially helpful to estimate if an opponent is more or less stronger than my own char, as long as I don't estimate its defensive qualities too. I would like to see a pair of chances to get hurt by it, and chances to be able to hurt it. Especially since some oppoments are so well armored that even "Extraordinary" quality crafted weapons won't do any damage as long as the character has only average weapon skills. And it is quite vital to estimate the chance of breaking the armor before starting a fight. Even if the opponent is "about as strong as" the character, it is not just risky but suicidal if the opponent is the only one which has any chance to hurt.

Using your Ring of Summon Familiar you can use the skill Empathy to dismiss/summon/etc, anywhere at any time. Also I was thinking about the skill 'Riding' maybe this could be trainable and used in combat while on your rivnak?

the gobble chasing me did not stop chasing me but i was no longer able to attack it because it said i must be grouped with X mean while the gobble was still damaging me.
this can be fixed one of 2 ways. the targeted player always has kill rights on the monster or the monster changes it’s target when a new playr engages it.
but as it stands it is rather scary when your being attacked and cannot defend yourself due to a bug in the kill stealing prevention system.

Task Description
When a player character is within the interaction range of an NPC, a mark (label) of some sort should appear above that NPC if they are offering some new or repeatable quests (! not some information for those already running !) for that particular character at that particular moment.
Should be optional as a turn-off or turn-on, depending on the default chosen by designers. In any case, and as with any other label, players should retain the option of not seeing it, if it spoils their fun or ruins their immersion somehow.
The reason for this request: drastically increased amount of questing chains ingame, and the absolutely unhealthy and immersion-breaking amount of mouse-clicking on the same NPCs the game now requires.
Noticing a sign above someone's head is OOC, of course, but clicking a mouse button on someone's model, or getting an aggressive red "…has no quest information for you" line floating in mid-air is equally OOC'ish. On the other hand, seeing no mark above someone's head would cause neither irritation nor disappointment (while futile mouse-targeting and mouse-clicking, when done repeatedly, invariably produces both of those negative effects). The marks would also provoke reasonable curiousity about available quests, hopefully enticing new players into doing more of them.
I know this request is somewhat of a long shot, but assuming that the engine is going to be considerably revisited this summer, I decided to submit it anyway.
[Edited for clarity, and also to separate it more from PS#4798. That older one would 'make the game easier' indeed, while what I suggest would only eliminate excessive mouse actions.]

Task Description
I just did this quest, and it turned out to basically be “Give Trasok 100 tria so he can explain what you should already know if you have the book.” It has no reward other than a few Crafting Association points, which is pretty much worthless. Could you guys either remove this quest or make it give some real rewards? Thanks…

Task Description
If you take a heated blade out of your hand while hammering it the work will not be interrupted until the work duration if finished. If you return it to your hand before the work is finished the transformation completes successfully. THis appears to only work if you replace the item with itself, substituting a different identical item or a completely different item causes an interruption.

Feature Request | 5300 | No | Quests | Medium | Unconfirmed | Andrew Draskoy | | Suggestion for NPC default conversation when quests not... | 29.08.2011 | | |
Task Description
Currently when an NPC doesn't have a quest for player, they essentially ignore the player. This can be bad because:
1) Sometimes (e.g. the circle way quests) this comes across as a bug since the player has been directed to talk to the NPC by another.
2) It's not always (in fact generally not) a realistic behaviour from a charactization PoV.
3) The chain quests are now very long and not obvious, so players have no idea what to do next.
4) It may be something else besides more quests that is necessary. How are players to know?
I think this should be changed, and propose the following dynamic as a possibility:
A "sociability" metric would be calculated for each interaction between player and NPC based on: factions, prerequisites required for quests, and a base number assigned to each NPC. This metric will indicate how well-disposed the NPC is towards giving quest info the player at this time. Depending on this metric (lets say a number from 0-5) the NPC could say something (or ignore the player if the number is 0). The higher the number, the more useful and specific is the response.
Some characters are grumpy by nature and will almost always ignore people or give gruff responses (like now). Many are just typical and will offer canned default responses, expect that for the higher metrics these will hint that they will have something for you later. Ideally the highest metric will look up who gives the pre-requisite quest and direct you there.
Each quest could specify overrides for any of the responses.

It’s stupid to not be able to trade (through right clicking the character and clicking ‘trade’) while over encumbered (having to sit down because you’re too heavy). But yet you can just make a shortcut or type /trade and it works.
So my point is, why?

Feature Request | 5425 | No | Engine | Medium | Unconfirmed | Zeonixa Alruvis | | FPS is too high. Improve the graphics. | 18.11.2011 | | |
Task Description
I have a 6950, running the game at absolute max(custom) settings(minus fullscreen, it crashes), and the framerate is ~130fps(see corner, I had limiter on). I think the game has room for some graphics bumps on the “highest” settings. It would also be a good idea to future proof this game. The 6990 is about twice as good as mine or so, and who knows what year 2014 will have in store? At max settings, I think it should run on the fastest graphics card at about ~12-24 fps.
http://img411.imageshack.us/img411/5356/screenshot10dl.png http://img839.imageshack.us/img839/3158/screenshot9rm.png
Now I know some people will be like: “How much did you spend on that computer?” and the answer is: $950. So yes, normal people could use better graphics. I’m not some crazy uber geek with a $6000 computer(just a normal geek).
Possible additions: Bump mapping. Cheap way to make things appear more 3d. Super AA (draw at double resolution, scale down, future proof) Voxel models/textures. Another lightmap model: make a second screen, this one is an additive screen, each object reflects light to the second drawing board according to the laws of color (additive, then multiply) so for example, a candle would be yellow on the emitter lightmap, but a chair pitch black. Then after being lit by the candle you preform additive to the chair’s lightmap, and multiply it by the texture of the chair. A third map could be added for reflectivity, but I don’t know if that would be easy since I don’t program graphics. Better textures.

Bug Report | 5439 | No | Character Creation | Medium | New | Mario Rohkrämer | | Race selection: Collection of issues found in systemati... | 15.10.2021 | | |
Task Description
There are several issues I experienced during testing the Character Creation / Race Selection:
Hair style is hard to check if manual rotation is necessary during zoomed view.
Male Ylian: blonde/brown are confusing names for face textures, they should possibly be changed to emotions. Blonde 1 and Blonde 2 appear identical.
Male Dermorian: Face style “Forehead tatoo …” is too long to be readable completely
Female Dermorian: “Medium” style is shorter than “Short” style
Stonehammer: Race description still mentions “Stonebreaker”. Many descriptions may need an update after the race renovation.
Male Stonebreaker (and others): Hair and Beard styles may need a more descriptive name.
Female Stonehammer: Traits seem to be misordered. If “Braids” are the two long upper tails, and “Rivnak tail” should probably be the one long tail, then “Lavvar tail” should instead be the two small low tails? What is a Lavvar, anyway?
Kran: I’d prefer visually disabling both male and female gender buttons. Leaving the female activated might be confusing.
Female Ynnwn: Face style “White eyes” doesn’t use white eyes. The name should possibly be changed, e.g. “Aged” (in contrast to “Young”).

Feature Request | 5477 | No | GUI | Medium | Unconfirmed | chris | | Gui improvements/inconsistencies | 20.12.2011 | | |
Task Description
Currently the GUI is one major flaw of Planeshift in my opinion, it makes it look worse than it deserves. A few examples:
Just try to play the tutorial on a 15 inch laptop (1366×768). As soon as you need to open up the inventory most of the screen is covered, you can’t even close the window because the top right cross is out of screen. I needed multiple tries to find a spot on that window to be able to drag it down and close it finaly.
The possibility to reduce the amount of tabs in the chat window is great but is also a pain in the a.. if every new guildmember needs to be guided through the processs of enabling the guildchat, even a restart is needed. Why not make this tab pop up if someone is in a guild…if the guild joins an alliance make this tab pop up. If not these two are hidden by default?
Playing this game now for around 5 years I think and at least I have the impression we get with every single release new commands to be used in shortcuts. Thats great, for advanced players…for new ones it is confusing. IMHO its time to take a breath and review them, sort them in order of importance and decide which should be used in the gui and how. Can’t remember how often I heard the question: “How do you mine ores”. A ‘logical’ way could be that you rightclick your character and get it as option (well now there is “introduce yourself”, does it do something?) when the rockpick is equipped, is the fishing rod equipped you fish as option. Also summoning your pet and mount is only possible via commands. The described way could make these also more accessible. (There are also illogical flaws, if mounted you can unmount after rightclick, but you don’t get the mount option when righclick on your mount)
Enough for now, hope you guys have enough time to think about it.

Bug Report | 5524 | No | Engine | Medium | New | Greg | | Couple Of Small problems to be corrected? Knollege Req... | 12.06.2012 | | |
Task Description
I have noticed a few things that are Incorrect, not sure If anyone commented on them, Or If they are In Progress. I will jot them down all in one Report so not to make several reports…
1. The “Cone” On the Energy Arrow Is faced in one direction As in the visual effect right after the energy arrow hits the target (Im sure im not the only one who see’s this wrong?) 2. When Dropping Stacks Of Items Like Pants There is an extra “ES” at the end. Alot Of Items Have The Extra “ES” at the end, that should not be there.
I Had A couple Questions and Requests :) 1. Someway to Turn off the red dropping notifications like.>”You are to far away to attack” and ““**” Has nothing to be looted”. maybe a way to just have it in the system tab.(Asked in help tab, unknown, If someone knows how please tell me lol, thanks!) 2. An NPC Or something In Game That could tell you detailed Information about weapons/quest items and things of that nature, (I have seen the Book in the musium, but I haven’t really studied it yet, and maybe incomplete?)
It would be really cool if you could go to an npc and hand them what you found, have them give you 2 lines about the sword and what it does. Or even a book from a quest where you can i.d it, have it unidentified untill you take it to an npc and pay them a really small fee to i.d it. (Not complaining at all but I have kept all of my named items I have looted since I have started playing. they are awsome! :D But I want to organize :) please? :D I want to sell them but I dont want to sell something for 10,000 and find out that it was really special. haha with my Inventory im sure I could write the book!
If you want to comment on this aswell, up to you. I will be blunt to the point: I have seen leather working Implimented But Famiel Is the one and only charature I will have. But He is Forbidden to work with Furs/Hides other then looting for sale. he wants to start making his own armor, so I ask/Hope there is a way to bypass leather armor and make Medium/Heavy Arms/Boots/Gloves when it gets implimented Thank You For Your Time :)
