that is a good idea, and it adds some more functionality to that menu

@DKPuncherello Does that ^
If you put your tools away then press trigger does it reequip them?
I didn’t answer your question about regen farms because I totally disagree with them. That exploit mechanic of the game is very bad and should never have been allowed.
Well we are very lucky because the game has many areas where people can “farm materials” so instead of risking the farm you built it would seem to make more sense to any player to go somewhere else and regen spam and mine instead of trying to chop down a tree in a glass house.
As I mentioned in the case of a person doing something actively with the tools then this might make sense but it more appears people are trying to “create scenarios” to justify why this is needed instead of just doing things to make it NOT needed.
Oh I care a lot but we have some people here that expect their views to be heard and never actually listen to others. If I didn’t care I wouldn’t be trying to provide very viable options to people’s concerns that are able to help them INSTANTLY versus waiting for a coding change. I care even more because I try to get people to see where they are being blind or just not taking advice or even acknowledging it.
Well usually when people get insulted it is an issue with them and not was said. Me giving an option for people to take 2 seconds to select something else isn’t insulting. It is an option. I don’t see how me saying select grapples is “insulting.” That really makes no sense.
I’d suggest that instead of trying to school me in how I say stuff or what I think I know or don’t know about the dev stuff it is probably better to just focus on your communication style. Usually in life it is best when people work on their own stuff instead of focusing so much and trying to demand how another person shares their views.
In regards to “sensitive” I’d say the same thing goes the other way too!
Fact is that I work in IT for over 20 years and do this stuff daily. I still have a variety of things I don’t agree with on the Devs but I still understand the approaches and why they do things. At the end of the day I don’t have any clue on what the Devs would do in this specific case because I haven’t talked to them directly about the change.
I have, though, talked extensively about the plot system and how they are making decisions on what to work on now versus what they don’t work on. I see things like Opt-In (which is HUGELY important to the game for new players, etc) and it is not being prioritized. So something like this doesn’t fit in the criteria especially with how it is being argued and the ease in telling people to “select another tool.” That is all I was suggesting and sharing and shouldn’t be treated rudely back just because I have a bit more information and might be able to help the conversation.
As I said if this was in a full revamp of permissions I’d support it. I am not against it in the long run but don’t see why everyone is making this to be like a super big problem and won’t take responsibility to change the tool. The AUTO HOLD Bug is an issue and should be fixed for sure first in my view.

I think people continue to try to read into my comments because they either refuse to be wrong or lack the willingness to try to understand where I am coming from. They demand to be heard but refuse to hear back.
I do not threadcrap anything. I stated a view and gave options that others are ignoring. Giving options is not making another person invalid especially when in my posts I stated I could see the change happening when it was put into a larger permissions update. I see many more people in this forum fight and shoot down ideas a million times worse than anything I do. Some even start calling people names or doing this innuendo junk or trying to school people on how to act.
The devs will do their job whether I, you, or anyone says something is good or bad. They will do what is right for the game and what they think is best.

Honestly this whole thing reminds me why I am happy the forums have an ignore option.

But don’t you risk missing something potentially worth reading if you ignore a person.
Ok, so the first reply was snarky but not necessarily threadcrapping. However I hope that your reply about chainsaw operation being like playing PS4 was meant as a joke and that at least in retrospect…
Anyway.

Trying to understand how a regen farm is a bad game mechanic??? If regen bombs are a thing how is a regen farm wrong? So regen bombs shouldn’t be a thing? What is “open air” regen differ from a regen farm? You May die? Max skill on t1-3/4/5 you won’t die either
Maybe, but a risk I am very willing to take considering it is just a game at the end of the day.

I think people need to spend more time on these forums focusing on their own communication style and how they treat people than worry about how I say something. I am certainly less stubborn than most here because I provide options and I actually try to have a conversation on the clear points at hand. I work toward solving the issue and clearly state my views even though I am passionate, straight-forward, and don’t take BS reasons BECAUSE I want the game better for the right reasons.
It makes no sense that using a word “lazy” is so offensive when the person clearly knows that the tool is of risk and that the game is broken in that area. Them being unwilling to adjust their game play IS being lazy especially if they are someone that will spend hours of time to build the perfect farm or grind to make all their persisting pies and play all the “meta” so much in this game. So any person looking at someone spending 150% in one area of the game but refusing to spend 2 second to protect their build can easily call them “lazy.”
Yes I was adding more jokes in my comments and just trying to be funny and light with things. It clearly didn’t come off as expected and I think some people took it way too seriously. I just sometimes get tired of having to justify myself and be “schooled” by so many people when I see much worse stuff in these forums especially by the ones “schooling me”. I’ve barely post here anymore after the last big blow ups months ago.
This is a personal view because regen breaks natural regen and acquisition and rarity of items. It probably isn’t worth going into honestly because I don’t want to start a fight with some people here.
Regen bombs were only used to regen areas in cities that wouldn’t regen because of traffic. It became emergent game play to give people easy access to materials. I believe it should force regen over the normal time frame and not instantly. I get how that pisses people off though.
Open air regen was meant to be anywhere else beyond a regen farm that the person owns. That way their “one shot” won’t break their build.

I think it’s not what you say, but how you say it. Your points were valid. However, the way you said them invited people to take offense and argue with you.
If you want more attention and focus on your ideas, which aren’t bad ideas, maybe try to moderate the way you say them. Try to envision how you might feel if someone sent your comments to you, before hitting send.

As I don’t usually end up in these “big fights” I’m usually reading all the comments thinking everyone needs to chill and not be so soft

So like how they got rid of bomb mining? I never bomb mined but own regen farms. So more asking if bomb mining got disabled should regen too? Or if regen farming is enabled should bomb mining too?
