New /stuck command!

[Aspenor]

I think maybe 1x/hour wouldn't be overkill....

[Tolero]

I can understand that but once per day seems pretty low. Could you consider raising this a little?

Two to four times per day would probably be a decent compromise.

I believe that it mostly has to do with the difference between the two games. LOTRO's stuck command takes you all the way to your bound location. DDO has a few other ways of getting you around, such as ddoor etc, that still keep you in your quest. This stuck command doesn't fling you back to your bind spot, as in DDO it's a bummer to have to exit a dungeon and take a re-entry penalty or have the instance reset on you and so on and so forth

Good point....I can count the number of times I couldn't get out of a stuck spot by myself on one hand.

[cdbd3rd]

how about a /lame command for this lack of info.

Or a /MackerelSmack command for those special moments where one could be fun to use?

[Sumerianlord]

Thank You for the new tidbit Tolero.

And what are you doing with the other hand?



The problem is when you get stuck, especially at lower level when you don't have DD, it is a very long time to wait for a DM to move you. This is a welcome quick fix to that.

I agree the command needs to be allowed more than 1/day.

BTW - I think this tidbit was already mentioned so it doesn't count toward your three tips Tolero!

What!? Who sniped my tidbit!! (see and this is what the press tour guys go through heh)

[Melkor_The_Mighty]

How can you say this is lame? While it's not the "Oh my God, can't believe you did this!" kind of information it's a pretty nice command.

/signed

I remember the old Threnal loot runs and training all the mobs to end room and jumping up on the bookcase and getting struck there quite a few times and wish they had some sort way to get out, tumbling and rolling didnt always work. This wasnt the only place this happens as I was an exploiter... er I mean explorer of textures and terrains to find nice semi-safe spots to fight off mobs (IE-unabled to be flanked).

Am not referring to coward crevace in Reaver where all the cheesy soloers's hid because they didnt know how to deal with the Air Ele's from the ground floor.

Oh, I totally understand that but /stuck x3 per day would be that much exploitable than x1 per day?

Don't get me wrong, I understand the fear, but unless the number is currently low to prevent known unfixed exploits, I think it's a little too low. In the end, I have not seen the command so I cannot know how exploitable it is and I could be wrong but once per day sounds low. It's rare we get stuck more than once per day but since there is no cost to it, would it really hurt to be little more generous?

I am not comparing DDO to LotRO.

Let's be honest Tolero...isnt this more Tarrant's level of tidbitting? We have come to expect so much more "Wow Factor" from your tid bits!

Hey last time I tried to get something more juicy and less vanilla I got yelled at

[Ustice]

Have you ever gotten stuck in a corner? Caught between a rock and a hard place? Hung up in a tree? In Module 9, you can use the /stuck command to get out of sticky situations! By typing /stuck, your character will be scooted out of the stuck spot to freedom! Don’t forget to submit a bug report if you happen to find a stuck spot so no one has to be stuck by that spot again!

Suggestion: When the user uses /stuck it should atuomatically submit such a report.

GREAT addition!

[Giantsbane]

/lame

/lame

/lame

... **** it's not working.

Dunno, yer looking kinda lame. I think it worked.

[Mearamar]

I hope /stuck does not equal /exploit.

There. Now tell us.

That would also have the interesting application of reporting it anytime it's abused, bringing it to the notice of the devs immediately.

Win/win if you ask me.

[Oolung]

auto-sending a report would mean that anyone abusing it would automatically report themself, making it easy to catch them.
