I don't want to crap on user contributions, but there's an app for this.Oh fancy! That works a lot better than AHK's ghetto way of capturing the mouse.

Just thought I'd let you guys know that this will hopefully not be needed for ver. 1.008!And this is good news too. :3
Everyone runs into that exact problem multiple times at the beginning. First you come to a red slime that wont take any fire damage so you look around and find the lightning (air damage) spell.I skipped this, actually.
Then you come to another one or 2 that wont take fire or air damage so you have to find the spell workbench deep in the dungeon and obtain spells with other damage types. Water, entropy, whatever as long as it isnt air or fire.
I made an autofire toggle macro and went to make a cup of coffee while my guy spammed the slimes with whatever weaksauce spell I started with.I am a very literal-minded person and I need to see the connections; I interpret two squares stacked on each other as two independent rooms. So yes, if you could make the connections appear larger that would be very nice indeed, please and thank you.Just wanted to bump this up because even though you can now magnify the dungeon schematic, the links between rooms don't get any bigger. No matter whether it's at 100 or 400, the lines that show exits between rooms are still 2 pixels by 6ish pixels, and that is way tiny.
Do you really need those larger? You can easily tell the relationships between rooms just based on their position alone; if there were no little lines at all, it wouldn't make any difference to the ability to read the map if you know their patterns. I could make the lines bigger if it feels like a need, but I didn't think it seemed like one.
To add to this conversation: On entry to a building, if I can't see a stash, I will almost always immediately just leave. I might go one door in if a stair or something looks to cover 5 or more rooms, but otherwise, I'm outta there.The same for me, yes. In fact, I wouldn't complain if cruft like destroyed rooms and empty hallways and empty rooms were removed altogether; they may as well not exist already, to all intents and purposes.
I REALLY, REALLY want nothing to do with wasting MORE time trying to find stashes, secret missions, and the like. I would expect a lot of other players feel the same way.
Because of that, and because of the importance of multi-continent (remember this game is not balanced for just the FIRST continent) enchantment improvement, the entire upgrade system was toned toned down to a reasonable 'nice to have' instead of a major component of the overall gameplay.And may I say that the change worked, and I spent my first upgrade stones today. I had been hoarding them until I had a better idea of what was going on, and ended up with a stash of about 380.
I like the recent change of having bosses drop something (Upgrade stones). I wish it was enchant containers though, or if there was some way to trade in upgrade stones for enchant containers.In a related note, I wish it was possible to transmute two Enchants of the same type to get one Enchant back with its attributes randomly rolled, like you can do with Ember Gems in Archanoth's Torchlight Overhaul mod for Torchlight 1.
Yeah, this could be an extension of Arcen's existing practice of utilizing community feedback to rapidly iterate--taking the most popular visual alterations and codifying them=free labor, plus everyone's happy (well not everyone; this is the internet).Nope, everyone would be happy. Having texture pack support would mean that everyone could run whatever texture pack they wanted, just like in Minecraft. Even Terraria can use texture packs (unofficially). It would really depend on the complexity of the textures, though. Minecraft textures are easy since at its simplest, a cube of sand just gets the same square texture on six sides. Terraria's textures are much more complicated since there are different patterns of dirt to break up the look of large areas of dirt, textures for the area where two different materials meet, corner caps, with and without grass, and so on. It would be the same for AVWW, I imagine.
Well, if you have prerendered pictures, of course it would. But how hard could it be to just make a text overlay, rendered on the fly?
Turns out: extraordinarily hard.
