Would be nice to be able to save the contents of an editable book into a local file on the client computer like it was possible in Crystalspace based PSUnreal.

Low priority as it is also possible to cut&paste contents. However for longer books it would still be nice to be able to edit them in a local text editor and then load them again into PSUnreal.

In PS Legacy, when selecting an amount from a stack of items, the slider would “remember” what the previous amount was. This would be useful in PS Unreal for subdividing stacks for crafting, especially since /equip /dequip are not currently ported to PS Unreal (which was the other common way of subdividing stacks for crafting).

having looked for a map piece in eagle bronze doors, it is clear that the map piece is missing. the last time it was there is was in the hands of the dwarf taimian yangnk.i have failed to find it on anyone there

The item description of a “Shiny Major Gold Diamond Necklace” states that the item has a (base-?) buff of +3 CHR.

It hasn’t when equipped.

Either the description of the buff effects need a fix.

items inside the mail window have no weight/quality/size.

Steps to reproduce:
1. go to a fast travel npc and click on mail
2. click on write mail tab
3. place item(s)/coin(s) in the mail window
4. hover over items

persists in received and sent tabs as well. You can send mail to yourself to test.

Dragging a glyph from an inventory container (e.g. sack or glyph sack) into any slot in Spell Research window causes the glyph to disappear from the container until window is re-opened.

Steps:

- Open Spell Research window from “spellbook”.

- Open glyph sack and drag glyph into any slot in Spell Research window. (Try to use Research or Way slots. Purify Glyph slot only reproducible if right hand has item equipped.)

- Glyph seems to have disappeared from container, but will reappear if window is refreshed.

Additional info:
Dragging glyph from glyph sack on the ground to Spell Research slots puts it into inventory.
Moving a glyph from inventory into Purify Glyph slot equips the glyph in right hand but does not begin purification.
(Not sure if these features are conflicting with spell research.)

You may pick Energy Glyph or Energy Glyph. And it should be Levrus’ Rat Eyes

the server send DR updates to all group members even if the actor causing it is not in range and therefore the target client doesn’t have an actor associated with it.
this results in a “Stat request failed because CelClient not ready for EID:xxxxx” for each movement of the group member that is out of range.

GET RID OF KEYS and replace it with a keypad code when door is clicked.

Player who has been given keypad privileges after being accepted to guild now can simply CLICK DOOR and enter a password.

IF password is correct, THEN the player magically gets teleported inside.

IF Guild Leader feels any guild member is exploiting their access powers and making a mess inside (like stealing), THEN access is revoked in the GUILD MEMBER screen by right clicking player name and option called REVOKE KEYPAD USE. Only Guild Leader and PERMISSIONS for specific Member Levels can change this back and forth.

PROBLEM SOLVED.

My understanding is that /setmemberpermissions [member-name] should allow a user with editing permissions to set/change individual guild member permissions, but the command seems to be broken. A bug or intentional?

I created a guild with 1 member and it did not disband after 5 minutes as it should have as it had less than the minimum number of required members.

It would be nice if I could target a player with clicking his name in the group list

Also says in Main chat “Guild Member just joined Planeshift” yet has a No under Online.

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).

In order for the custom channels to be useful, they need a convenient interface. The need for typing /x before stuff isn’t terribly annoying, but also not terribly convenient. However, the biggest issue is that with multiple such channels, all talk gets mangled into one. The designation for the originating channel doesn’t help much in that case.

Therefore it would be nice to be able to create and assign custom tabs to channels, which would then function just like any of the built-in tabs. It would be even nicer if that arrangement could be stored, which would go very well with the auto-joining of custom channels proposed elsewhere.

I would like to be able to maintain my buddy list a bit better by adding extra info.

I use the list as many to also locate enemies. But the list gets longer and longer so I would like to add additional info to it. Like the guild when met etc.

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.

• We now have channels. But the new basic chat gui hides it by default. New Players with a new installed client don’t see it. A lost chance to show them there are people online actually.

• 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)

• Think about if some can be combined into one command. We ‘use’ the riveter, anvil etc. Why do we /dig or /fish and not /use the rockpick or fishing rod. I can only think thats a leftover from when we had to /dig iron etc explicit.

Enough for now, hope you guys have enough time to think about it.

I think, slots in all windows should not have quantity labels displayed then there is only one item.
It concerns inventory window (including equipment slots), a hotbar, container, exchange (could be), etc.

So the subject: book titles for crafting techniques are missing in 0.5.9.10 using “elves” skin (and other skins too):

But writable and setting books are ok:

when i edit book and load it from file i would like see list of files i can load,
in additonal user books not stack that make it hard to carry for sale :( so another proposition if i put empty book into writted one it stack and and i have 2 identical -easy way to copy books

btw book name is not changed when i load it from file and i have to edit it every time

There are three files (jade_theme.png, splash.png, yesno.png) in client_base.zip, which contain an incorrect iCCP.
When using a newer version of libpng you get the following warning: “iCCP: known incorrect sRGB profile”.
So just delete the color profile in the next art update, please.

The old application clearly stated which skills can be trained by simply showing you them listed in the dialog.

Now you’re getting list of all skills and let’s take Percival Hawthorne for example:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/11TT9POMLeO0WOf9he84foTY5Xaju2eUj/view?usp=sharing

What we see is:
- list of all skills
- some progress bar right under the skill
- some progress bar in the right part of the box
- if you try to hover on this, we can see it marked “tbd” which doesn’t make it any less defective.

What we should see:
- list of skills the NPC can actually train you (the current list needs to be filtered)
- the cost of the training both in tria and PP (the progress bar on the right should be simply replaced with a button

Hi,
to make the interface less confusing, please let the chat window have the “Guild” and “Group” tabs only when the character is in a guild or group. Or at least make hiding these tabs an optional feature.

This would also make it possible to add an alliance chat tab to the chat window without bloating it for the people who are not in an alliance. see my FR #2688 for this.

at the job bar tab is no scrollbar available,for some its there only if they max out the size of the window

all potions I tested results in a diamond crystal icon in the active effects bar.

On some player created books, the text is misaligned, particularly on higher page counts. Sometimes the text overlaps the page number at the bottom, and if “-” is use as a divider, it runs off the page to the right rather than wrapping like the rest of the text.

Goto NPC , Pay for Drawing Lessons.

Skills Tab under Jobs shows previous Drawing +green temporary level.

when quitting game and reloading, it shows correct normal value of total drawing level.

The mail window at the pterosaur fast travel npcs has item slots that extend outside the minimum extent of the mail window.

Use case, to check the Quality of an item before retrieving it from storage, similar to Legacy

If you have your inventory window on the right and hover over an item, the information display scrolls off the visible screen.

can you please change it so it aligns to the edge of the visible screen.

in other words, make it so the information shown while hovering over an item is always showing on the visible screen only

When attempting to attack with the hand a torch is equipped in.
the error message is “You have no weapons equipped!”

A more accurate Error message could be

You cannot attack with this item

or

You should not attack with this delicate item

— side note, nice to see meele working while holding a torch now.

In legacy you could start typing a persons name in and press TAB to auto complete the name.

Currently in the Unreal chat box, pressing tab removes focus from the chat window.

When playing in windowed mode, if you shrink the game window, everything scales smaller except the mouse pointer. This causes the tooltip to be hidden behind the mouse pointer if you shrink the window smaller making it unreadable. I’m not sure if it’s possible to either have the mouse pointer scale with everything else, if the tooltip can be further offset, or if the tooltip can be on top of the pointer.

This is the biggest problem on the toolbar with options, skills, character etc, spells/active magic toolbar, and on the shortcut toolbar. The inventory tooltips seem ~okay. They do overlap slightly, but the overlap is in a place without text.

Having a limited number of storage locations for sacks would be a really nice feature.

It would make it much easier for people to sort out their equipment without having to carry it everywhere.

window resizing has no effect on the displayed information.

or that is as indented, and there should be no resize for it.

It would be nice to bea able to make a bag in your inventory the default collection bag.

I think sorting things after that should be manual thou.

Throughout the GUI, some options are referred to by multiple or misleading names, which can be confusing and make communicating about them difficult.

On the toolbar → ‘Others’ the shortcut bar is labeled “shortcuts”, but editing the shortcuts shows a widget labeled “Macro Editor”. To reach the shortcuts in Settings menu → Controls, you must scroll down to a section labeled “quickbar”. There are a list of 10 shortcuts below, but “quickbar” is not used as a label anywhere else in the game. It would not be evident to a new player that these are related.

Toolbar → ‘Others’ → ‘options’ opens Settings menu. This is less confusing but may confuse some players when trying to navigate GUI. (My suggestion would be to change “Settings” label to “Options” as we also say “settings” to refer to lore, quests, NPCs, etc.)

Toolbar → ‘Character’ → ‘character’ opens the inventory window.

Zooming in on the character does not center on character.

Instead is zooms to a point right of the character so the character is zoomed out of view to the left hand side.

I think that has to do that the character, in this case a female Nolthrir, is not centered in view. From the left border of the PSUnreal window, maximized to Full HD resolution in windowed mode, it is about 855 pixel to Damola’s right hand when she looks into the camera. From the right hand border to the left hand, again with Damola looking into the camera, it is about 990 pixel, according to a screen ruler program.

What I think is happening here is that PSUnreal actually zooms in on the center of the view, but Damola is not there, but somewhat to the left from the center.

I also tried it in windowed mode with a resolution of just 1280×800 pixels. Still the same, Damola is not in the center. Same goes with full screen on Full HD resolution. Or windows mode with 1600×900 pixels. It does not seem to depend on the resolution.

In addition to bug FS#7859 there is another scrolling bug.

PSUnreal scrolls down during chat, but on multi line messages it does seem to forget about the last line of the message. It scrolls down towards the second last line of the message.

When moving items into bags or around within a container it can instead be dropped onto the floor or wall where the mouse cursor landed.

Any other commands are deleted

There is no 2d art / icon to represent a “War Pick” in game.
Inventory cells containing one are not discernable from empty slots.

The following Crystal Way spells have the same shortcut icon.
Blessed Litany
Prayer

If you try to equip an item from a container into an invalid slot, the item becomes invisible till you reopen the container.

Add a better way to search for icons. clicking through each individual icon in a long list is fairly annoying for some of the larger categories, and there are several icons that are blank so it’s not always clear there are more icons after that. Being able to see more than one icon at a time/being able to filter by name or type (ways for magic, weapon types for weapons, tools, music, decorations etc.) or having more categories with shorter lists would also be helpful.

In the skills window, the scroll bar doesn’t works with scroll button on mouse in all tabs. Works as expected in the Stats and Combat tabs. Does not work in the Magic, Jobs, Various, or Factions tab. The scroll bar needs to be manually grabbed and dragged to see the rest of the window.

The scroll bar also doesn’t scroll down far enough in the factions tab and in order to see the very bottom of the tab; the window has to be resized to see the bottom.

Font size in settings for “Speak with NPC Text” or “NPC Response Text” cannot be changed.

Can’t tell what time it is in Yliakum

no task description

the light source for the character lighting area is going in and out of focus
