I wonder if this means stealing would become harder, since NPCs now have light sources in their villages.

« on: September 09, 2024, 06:22:44 PM »
Actually, I would expect macros more. If those frequently used tasks can be binded to one key or one key combination, the gameplay will be much much smoother, because you don't have to press multiple keys to just search a simple function like crafting an arrow, chopping down a tree, or hauling stuff on ground around. With more and more functions introduced into the game, and more kinds of items accessible in player inventory, solutions such as macros to simplify controls are never this needed anytime in the past.

Solved'n'fixed bug reports / Re: [Solved][3.83]Key combination of "Pick up and wield" function doesn't work.
« on: May 18, 2024, 04:08:29 AM »
Finally, I found out why that function failed for me. It turned out to be a software I used before causing the problem (it deals with keyboard input, so it all makes sense). If it hadn't been for the SDL library update of the game somehow exposing the issue, I could have never noticed it. So, thank you, UnReal World and devs.
That software *hijacked* this key combination and set it to the top priority for itself system wide. Even though I had already uninstalled it long ago, this shortcut key was still not released. Either the software was just poorly programmed, or they coded that intentionally. But anyway, Now I finally found it out and fixed it, along with other problems which the software caused and I just discovered now. Also, a consumer complaint is formed for messing up my system.
Many thanks to you guys for helping me fix the problem in this post!
And if anyone suffers from similar problems, I hope my story can help you or at least provide some thoughts. You can try:
1. Check if mechanical issue.
2. Update or rollback your keyboard drive.
3. Examine your shortcut key registration.
4. Recall if you ever installed something that could mess up the keyboard input.
Hopefully, these methods I once used could help you locate the source of the problem.
I missed the two updates and was playing v3.82 all the time due to this problem. Now I can finally enjoy the game with the new content. But still, it makes me wonder why UrW was not influenced by this problem before while the whole system was.
Computers are tricky little demons after all. And UrW is a magical game made by magical people, I reckon.

Solved'n'fixed bug reports / Re: [3.83]"Pick up and wield" function doesn't work.
« on: March 15, 2024, 01:07:04 AM »What keyboard layout do you use to play URW? Is it an English US layout or some other one? I remember a long time ago I had a different issue with Hungarian keyboard layout that Sami had to fix for me.
Thank you for the idea. It's American layout (ANSI keyboard). I actually thought about the layout types, too, so I tested that keyboard on another computer and it worked. So the factors of keyboard types or drivers are excluded. The problem should be more likely with that computer itself, on which the command doesn't work.
A funny thing I discovered in one of my attempts to fix this problem is that I can't assign "ctrl"+"," as a shortcut key of the system or any software on that computer, however they become assignable after changing the system language to any other language than English (UK,US... no matter what type of English it is).
Changing system language doesn't fix the issue in game, though. From a positive perspective, it helps locating where the root of the problem is, I guess.

Alright. This is werid. Just tried it on another computer and it worked... It should be some rare kind of problem with that device of mine itself after all. Now the strange thing is why it works on previous versions on that device.
Still have no clue about this issue... I guess I will try updating some environment- or library-things. Not sure if I can fix it eventually, but I hope this post could at least provide some hints to anyone with the same issue.

« on: March 12, 2024, 04:27:19 PM »I just noticed that now I can't use the combination of "alt"+"," keys to pick up and wield the weapon on ground at the same time. Actually, before v3.83 update, this key combination couldn't work if the item you want to pick up and wield is an arrow. I don't know if it's designed so or bug, but now this function is just not working for all kinds of items.
Tried it (on Windows build) and "ctrl" and "," works on my end. Ezhe, you speak of "alt" and pick up key, but it's ctrl you should use.
If this just typo and you actually tried it with ctrl?
ctrl and (alternate pick up key) g doesn't seem to work at my end either, but I'm not sure if it's new thing - or just my bad/overlook from the past.
Sorry, I was wrong about the combination. It should be "ctrl" + ",". But it still doesn't work by my end (Windows 10, ASNI keyboard).
At first, I thought it's my keyboard's problem, however, "ctrl" + "," functions normaly after I converted the game back to v3.82 to try it out. Since it works properly by your end on the current version, I guess it should not be the game's, either.
Maybe some uncommen conflicts of settings. I don't know how many people have encountered this issue.

Bug reports / Re: [3.83] Runaway Slave Start - Njerpez Infighting
« on: March 10, 2024, 03:16:13 AM »
I also encountered this bug, while raiding a Njerpez camp. I even recorded it, because it's so uncommon.
A Njerpez archer shot a Njerpez warrior by accident, then a scuffle started. The "Njerpez warrior attacks the Njerpez warrior" message was spamming the log zone all the time. I really didn't know which one refered to which. But it seems that they're somehow divided to two sides. After all warriors of one of the sides killed, the rest turned to attack me.
It was quite interesting though. Maybe the Njerpez warriors didn't get along with each other. One of them wanted to take the opportunity in scuffle to murder the one he hated, but just lighted the powder keg once for all and everyone went mad. Eventually it led to the infight.
I know this explanation seems unreal. But isn't having your own story to what happens in your game also a style to play the game?

« on: March 05, 2024, 02:59:01 AM »Can you confirm you tried with Ctrl+,
Not Alt or g. I’ll check myself later too.
Yes, just tried. Combinations involved with "ctrl" or "g" don't respond. At least not for me. I'm not sure if they're valid commands. I also tried it with another keyboard and got the same result.

This brings some little disadvantages in fighting, since it takes two turns to pick up and wield the weapon that slips off your hand during the fight.

Gameplay questions / Re: Wielding a rope
« on: January 16, 2024, 07:43:26 PM »
The game mechanism allows you to wield not only ropes, but also a lot of other items. But many of them just don't have special use. They are wieldable and that's all. Then you can throw them maybe? If that counts. Don't see the purpose for doing so though.

Suggestions / Re: Telling villagers about companion's death in order to be able to hire again
« on: October 29, 2023, 12:04:29 AM »Once being the only survivor after a brutal fight against a whole Njeperzit village, I carried my owl-tribe adventurer companion's dead body all the way back to his home in the far north. When I tried to give the body to his fellow villagers, they just said that it's something they didn't want to hold. Of course, it's just the way how it's coded. But it still feels strange to see that they don't even know their own fellow villager. Wish that there could be more vivid interaction with NPCs in the future maybe.
Plus: Then I tried to stuff the body to the village oven, you know, to cremate that dead companion, but it turned out that it didn't work. Then I have no choie but to carry the body out of the village to a nearby woods and burn it.
I also tried once to bury a body during summer before. However, filling a pit you digged won't make things dropped on that tile get buried. There's no such a system.
As for ship burial, you couldn't make it either, because the boat won't go away with the fluss of water......
Since the dead person's fellow villagers do nothing with his body and there's no other good funeral method, the only way you can properly do with a body is to burn it simply on fire. And sure, you can also burn some objects as well to show respect if you want.

« on: October 20, 2023, 05:54:30 PM »
That's strange. the village with all villaged killed will become vagabond, but normaly it won't happen unless the player decide to kill all of them.
And I really didn't know Njepezits can raid a village. I only know they will occasionally set up camp then you notice there is a new Njepezit color bubble on the map.
