Auto-Loot: auto-close window

Post by Improv » Sat Nov 04, 2017 8:45 pm

I love the auto-loot addition and this is just a question/tweak so please don't take it as criticism--

But as the window auto-closes after auto-looting, I find myself having to re-open the corpse's inventory to pick up anything like scrolls that I might have missed. Maybe the window should stay open and be closed manually, or this behavior could be an option?

Again, thanks for the wonderful update!

This is a quirk of the function used for automatically picking up cut gems and potions. The game essentially assigns a command to your character to get this done. Unfortunately, this has the result of auto-closing open inventory interactions.

It is only during the auto-looting of cut gems and potions that this occurs. Gold, jewelry and bounty head auto-looting does not close the loot window.

I'll see about fixing this sometime in the future.

Will only be picking up gold/jewelry/heads at this point then, great system though!

RP only starts at 30 if you're a coward.

This has been fixed. Auto-looting cut gems and potions will no longer close the loot window or cause PC movement.

Seems to pick up beer as a potion, can it be left out of the potion list please.

Adventurers refusing free beer.

It is a sad day indeed.

Strictly speaking it is stolen or filthy orc brews our characters are enthusiastically gathering.

But still, it offends my dwarf-playing sensibilities to turn down free beer. Perhaps an "All the Drinks" Dwarf auto-looting option? Well, maybe for beer and spirits, I can live without wine.
