Right-click menu and talents

#1 Post by yufra »

I just built from SVN revision 1247 and one thing that I noticed that feels off about the right-click talents is that you don't know when a talent will actually hit an enemy. For example, something can be in LOS but not able to hit unless you back the beam off a few tiles. Actually this strikes me as odd, that you have a ray to see the tile but cannot directly hit it unless the attack is a beam. Maybe that behavior needs to change?

An additional check would be to check range before a talent shows up... right-clicking something well out of melee range and still seeing shield pummel is a bit odd.
<DarkGod> lets say it's intended

Maybe on mouseover of ranged abilities like flame and lightning, you see the path the projectile/beam will take?

or you could grey out attacks that are blocked by something.
Having satellite internet is a lot like relying on the processes described in those RFC's for your internet. Except, instead of needing to worry about statues interrupting your connection, this time you worry about the weather. I have satellite internet. Fun, no?
