Re: Patch 135 - UO Tutorial Server, Swing Advance/Movement,
Hey there was a neato bug I found that stated that if you cast paralyze on any one of these immobile creatures they would be able to move until the spell duration wears off (might have just been the Corpser). Do we have that here?Derrick wrote:Any creatures which cannot move, including corpsers and reapers will show (frozen) in their name.
Also with the 12% thing, Does that mean we run faster too?
Re: Patch 135 - UO Tutorial Server, Swing Advance/Movement,
Nay, it will not effect your run speed, as that is controlled by the client and capped by the shard in real time, but i suspect it will effect stamina loss rate although I've not yet heard any reports of a difference. It definately effects stamina regeneration.RoseRIP wrote:Hey there was a neato bug I found that stated that if you cast paralyze on any one of these immobile creatures they would be able to move until the spell duration wears off (might have just been the Corpser).

There was actually an attempt made last night to recreate the oddity of paralyzing frozen creatures such as the corpser and reaper to enable then to move, but the project was started quite late and did not work properly in the first attempt, so it was shelved for future work.

Patch is fine overall, we just need to adjust alittle. If it's accurate then I surely want it in.

Re: Patch 135 - UO Tutorial Server, Swing Advance/Movement,
This mechanic does not require you to stop for two seconds to hit. If that is the case than there is a bug, and this should be posted in bug reports.

Re: Patch 135 - UO Tutorial Server, Swing Advance/Movement,
It requires you to stop for <time> to ready your swing. You can still swing your weapon (once readied) while moving/running.
[14:17] <UOSAPlayer4056> cr3w guild is a joke. Ran by staff members, multi client pking, this shards a joke and a half.

Couldn't a simple solution be.....that a swordman(fencer,mace) just need to
be close to the target to swing. He need not have to stop to swing. Maybe
this is not realistic..but in the game many things are not.

One other thing is that you have to run up and stand next to your
oponent for a second or two (or three if you're using the only melee
weapon in the game that can actually inflict some damage - a halberd)
before you take a swing. You will *never* stand next to an archer for
more than one second (unless he's lagged out beyond belief or lost
connect).
-------------------------------
John Wagner Jun 26 1998, 3:00 am
Using this model a melee weapon with cycle of 2 seconds(strikes
every 2 seconds) would trigger when you stand by a target for .5 seconds,
with a total interval between swings remaining 2 seconds. Thus you can
run up to your target and soon after you contact the swing goes off. No
more standing next to your target for 2 whole seconds (wildly
unrealistic). The percentage in cycles could be tweaked also (perhaps
1/5 of cycle is trigger, 4/5 raising).

I see two possible solutions. One would be forcing archers stand still
for a while before they fire. Only allow half the round time (or whatever is
best) to be counted down while the archer is running. This should be enough
to make archers somewhat vulnerable, but not enough to make them sitting
ducks.
The other would be to allow melee fighters to swing while running, with
decent accuracy.

*Edited to not give the impression that this patch was that way.
For the most part, great patch

Re: Patch 135 - UO Tutorial Server, Swing Advance/Movement,
Psilo your over reacting.
Any hally mage is not even going to notice this. And you tell me when it was possible in T2A to just run non stop while cycling weapons (it didn't happen).
I run a dexer and have no problems with this.
GOOD CHANGE, THANK YOU DERRICK FOR PUTTING ALL THIS HARD WORK INTO THE GAME FOR FREE.

Re: Patch 135 - UO Tutorial Server, Swing Advance/Movement,
Welp, Im out. I had a lot of fun the last few days. I came back when I heard this absurd "stand still for your swing timer to cook" was gone, and it was truly great while it lasted.
I simply dont want to play having to use macros to compete. Rofl, look at the pvp screenshots with the ridiculous "hallytab" and "disarm tab arm" macros constantly spammed up the left side of the screen. Just stupid.

Re: Patch 135 - UO Tutorial Server, Swing Advance/Movement,
There was such an enormous surge of pvp when I was back compared to before I left, I thought UOSA had finally done something for the better. Should've known lmao.
Re: Patch 135 - UO Tutorial Server, Swing Advance/Movement,
I think there's a bit of confusion on what this means. This was a rollback to the movement we had last week, the old combat system was out the window some time ago.
If you have more to add about the movement restriction, please put it in an appropriate thread. Maybe in Suggestions or Discussion. There's likely a lot of disinformation on this, and discussion is probably warranted.

Re: Patch 135 - UO Tutorial Server, Swing Advance/Movement,
Yea it's not a big change, I just hope no one else quits over this
And great job on fixing double hit Derrick.
Also does anyone regarding there being darker evil mage clothing than the current color? I remember really necro clothinb but there wasn't like 3 different colors of it.
Maybe 2.
