Considering that arrows are single-use at this time and craftable, it should be feasible to use envenomed arrows to test the concept of envenomable weaponry for the time being, until we can get the engine changes needed for temporarily-poisoned blades in. (Flaming arrows would be a nice addition while you are at it…)

Even with the recent improvement of the spell research behaviour, I think it is a bit tedious to find spells with 3 glyph combinations or spells with 2 glyphs of 2 different ways.

I propose that the glyph order doesn’t matter in the assemble slots.

Wouldn’t it also be more logical if the glyph order doesn’t matter?

From game chat:

/tell Laanx Hi, Laanx!
> Laanx is not found online.

Current /pray command is a shortcut for /emote pray, but it could be interesting to have separate command to pray gods (or specific god) for miracles or even ask them about something.

“Miracles” should be protective / healing spells, casted on character or group, or offensive spells, casted on enemies.
Spell set could vary by god. Rate of success of appeal & spell power could be determined by character race, faction points, number of previous appeals (in the game day), sacrifices and also (maybe) current location, weather and time of the day.

If god name not specified, any god in the mood could answer to the prayer.
Also, appeling to the more ancient gods (Laanx, Talad) should have lesser rate of success, but greater miracles or revelations.

Any character (even have no magical abilities and choose to be atheist) could use this command.

Gods could be implemented as (invisible) NPCs.

Example command formats:

Pray: /pray [godname]
Ask: /tell [godname] [question]
Sacrifice: /give [godname] [itemname]

While the quest system has greatly improved in the years I’ve been gone, there are still things one needs to type to an NPC.

Currently NPCs are still dumb as bricks when it comes to understand what players “write” to them.

As the “writing” is supposed to be “speaking” one would assume that an a person would understand a word even if it’s spelled incorrectly.

For example - in a certain quest you have to tell a certain NPC the words “diamond and opal”.

If you spell the words wrong (e.g. opale) the npc refuses to help and you have no chance of repeating that step and thus are forced to finish the quest in another way.

With regexp in the engine the settings department could make the answer look like this: (?i).*diamond.*opal.*

This would match case insensitive on “it are diamonds and opals” as well as “diamondsopals” or “diamond opale” as well as many other possible phrases that include the words “diamond” and “opal”.

With wordlists settings could define a couple of spellings of certain words to match on in-word typos even. for example: (?i).*$quest_stepX_wordlist1.*$quest_stepX_wordlist2.*
In the wordlist the settings dept could then, for example, define spellings like diamond, daimond, diamant and the like. That’s just an example though, I’m sure there are many more examples in game currently where a npc refuses to answer or you break a step in a quest only because you cnat type

As for the regexp, the PCRE library from Apache could be used, maybe. http://www.pcre.org/

During fight using ranged weapons if the player is attacking a mob but doesn’t face them the arrows are still used but no attack is led and the message about facing the target is shown.

Sometimes attacking with ranged weapons cause the showing of the facing target message and the attacks are not dealt even when the target is near and straight before the player (the arrows are consumed as well).

I recently wanted to create a shortcut to summon my Rivnak, but it doesn’t work exactly like it should…Here are the commands of my shortcut :

/dequip leftfinger
/equip Ring of Summon Familiar
/pet summon Bigadin
/dequip leftfinger
/equip Crystal Ring

Of course, using the commands one by one in the chat works perfectly. But here is the chat log after using the shortcut :

Usage: /equip [stack count] [slot] [item name]
You feel a connection to your familiar.
You’ve gained 1 Practice points in Empathy.

Weirdly, it seems that when the last line is executed, my ring is still considered equipped, and so it cannot be equipped. I thought that with another item which exist in several copies, it would work through equipping another copy, but even that do not work. I tried using it with 2 Silver Rings in my inventory (so the line /equip Crystal Ring become /equip Silver Ring), and both when the quality is the same and when it is not (and so it doesn’t stack) :

You feel a connection to your familiar.
You’ve gained 1 Practice points in Empathy.
This item cannot be equipped.

I hope the informations are sufficient to allow you to understand and solve the problem.

The book shows

Hammer [Raw Material] into 3 Big Chunks of [Raw Material] using Alchemist Table with Wooden Mallet

In the CC tab it says “Xiosa talks to you through nature,” Xiosa should be Xiosia.

Magic Staves, like the Staff of Empathy/Aurora are always blocked unless they miss.

I’m not sure which weapon skill they use, but they are even blocked by dummies

When opening a chest, sometimes it will say “you find some ingot”, but give you none.

Seen it on Reinforced chest, sure I saw it on a different chest before as well.

There seems to be a problem with how incoming damage is being handled when casting spells in combat. The primary issue appears to be a glitch when casting a offensive spell where the player will loose their combat stance and be treated as out of combat which this seems to have the (hopefully)unintended effect of allowing incoming damage to bypass the players defenses completely any skills / abilities to reduce the damage and even seeming to nullify the effects of the players armor allowing creatures to directly deal massive hits directly to the players hp similar to if they were completely unarmed and unarmored. The result can a normally harmless enemy suddenly dealing critical damage and causing instantaneous death depending on the situation.

Expected behavior would be to not allow melee attacks during spell casting however the player should remain in the selected combat stance to ensure that armor and evasion occurs properly and melee attacks may be automatically resumed after the casting completes.

I could have sworn when I created my Ylian character in legacy it had a dark beard, it shows up with a dark beard in legacy; in unreal the character’s beard shows up as blonde. Seemed peculiar

Hello, Dev-Team,

here are two requests for the character creation in psu:

1. The speaker speaks too quietly! I know its you, Talad, but the background music overwhelms your voice!

2. I miss a “Back”-Button because if i go into the chara creation but dont want to create a new character and want to go back to my character which already are there!

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

Need to fix the model to not being open at the bottom. (noted it missing in stream while working on magic light)

In guild house one can run through chairs and beds and shelves.

Collision detected is disabled. Like for chairs and other items placed outside of the guild house.

Expected result

In guild house collisions are detected for items like beds, shelves, chairs and so on is enabled like in Crystal Space PS. So that these items are really solid for the char.

Ideally there would also be collision detection outside of guild house, together with a physics simulations, so that you cannot place 10 shelves onto one another easily, cause they would crumble down again. We did not have this in Crystal Space PS however, so for feature parity with CS PS collision detection inside guild houses is enough.

Suggestion

Add low base damage and fire damage to the torch.

Currently. you get an error message when trying to attack with the torch.

While at harnquist in Hydlaa I am able to target creatures in the arena.

very confusing and weird.

Put a sack on the ground
put a torch in the sack
picked up the sack.

Receive warning that I should not leave 1 torch here a few minutes later

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.

riding a mount can be strange. there is the usual sit on saddle look, standing on saddle with knees bent, standing sideways like on a surfdoard or skate board, and there is side saddle. not yet had the reversal of riding position this time, yet. if you sit side saddle, stand like surfing/skateboarding, you walk/run crablike.

Since a while PSUnreal has a pop window in inventory that appears then hovering with the mouse pointer over inventory slots with items or containers in it.

It is a nice feature.

However in the top right slots of the inventory the popup window overlaps the slot the mouse pointer is over and slots in the neighborhood of it. It thus covers part of the inventory content which makes it more difficult to navigate to the right items.

# How to reproduce

- Move inventory window to the lower right corner of the PlaneShift Unreal window or screen.
- Put some items or containers in the top right inventory slots
- Hover with the mouse pointer over them.

# Actual results

When hovering over the top right slot the popup window covers 4 slots in the upper 2 rows seen from the top right corner of the inventory slot area.

At the moment Weapon enchantment is being executed with any attack, also from another weapon.

I have a dagger “of Creation” that is triggering a blinding magical effect.

As soon as I have this item equipped, any attack I do, even with the other hand is triggering the blinding effect.

Note from Talad: at the moment the equip_script associated to the weapon, is attaching an “on attack” effect on the character. There is no way at the moment to know which weapon generated that. We could change ApsCharacter::AttachScript() to also store the information of which weapon had the effect, and then in ApsCharacter::InvokeAttackScripts() check if the current weapon used is the same that generated the effect.

Cast a Debuff like Frozen net or dazzling light

After debuff expires, NPC creature will follow you but not attack

When you click remember Password the password looks like it is being duplicated then saved and then will not work.

currently the spell will drain well over 1000 mana points
normal max mana is 500

perhaps full duration of a cast at full power could drain 500

In the server list, you could have another “server” that’s really stored on the local machine. In this server, it starts the player in a pit with a bunch of NPCs casting spells over and over. Maybe 5 NPCs repeatedly casting magic light, and 20 casting random spells. The pit should be a “worst realistic case” scenario so that players can tinker with graphical settings in there.

window resizing has no effect on the displayed information.

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

Giving a Guild level the permission to edit gild points is not honoured. The flag is shown, but if someone of ther permitted group tries to edit the points of himself or another member he gets “you don’t have the permission…”

Additionally, editing permissions is not propageted to other online members. Ie. they do not see any changes in guild privileges.

Narrow gateways that were easily passable for mounts in Legacy are now hard or even impossible to get through. One example is the first stairs going down in the Welcome Area. It takes several tries with jumping to get through. And speaking of jumps, they are much lower than in Legacy, so fences in Hydlaa have become unsurmountable.

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

When looting a monster, there is a system message in main chat saying “<mob> has no money to be looted” when you click “loot all” even if the monster does have money to be looted instead of the correct system message which should tell you how much money you looted (the amount of money looted could also be added to the loot window as a quality of life improvement).

If the monster doesn’t have any money, then there are two system messages in main chat saying “<mob> has no money to be looted”. One appears when you open the loot window, and once when you click “loot all”.

Player can jump or fall onto another character and enter climbing animation and briefly stand on top of another character. Player then falls due to no collision detected.

Both player characters and NPCs are climbable.

Cutthroats on Oja Road 2 pathing seems problematic. They do not attack back when attacked and repeatedly teleport to this location even while standing here and do not appear to be able to move from this location: ojaroad2 469297.69 -333307.041 5554.62

My PC resolution is 4:3. When I talk to NPC, NPC dialogue is on the left of the screen and I cannot see whole NPC dialogue.

If you fall from a height, fall damage and body development is not calculated while on a mount.

On getting teleported while sprinting almost fell off a steep abyss. Could have brought my char into death realm.

Might be a good idea to have a teleport freeze the char for a second or two so as I player have a good chance to react to the location change.
