Must be standing to cast

It's the reason why I keybound sit/stand when I first started.

I think this is probably the best option for slugs like me who still use the mouse to click the spell bar directly. Like someone else said, using the move forward trick will likely get axed as well, so why not just go with a more future-proof method.

this was changed during Kunark?

bah so we have to get to the super classic feel to only have it taken away with lazy mechanics [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Recreating broken, absurd, and mistaken mechanics? And yes they do need me to play here and they need you to play here.

Developers do not need anyone to play here.

Nilbog has said multiple times he doesn't care if anyone plays on his box, and he is the head developer.

The developers run this server to see if they can recreate a classic EverQuest box; they do not care at all if we play on it or not. We just get to reap the benefits of it actually being open to the public.

...but.. if people didn't play here .. who would test BETA?

[Bboboo]

The same people who have been testing beta this whole time.


noone =P

September 2000, /camp is added to game.

Added the following /-commands:

/camp: Causes your character to camp out. You must be sitting to use /camp.
/disband: Will disband you from your current group, or turn down an invitation to join another group.
/invite: Will invite the target into a group, or accept an invitation if one is pending.
/attack: Will toggle the state of "Auto-attack". You may also add a parameter of "on" or "off" to explicitly set the state.

Then after Velious launches you get camp server and desktop.

Added parameters to the /camp command (the command that will cause you to camp out if you are already sitting). "/camp server" will take you back to the server selection screen. "/camp desktop" will take you out to the desktop following a successful camp. Despite popular request, "/camp spawn" will not be implemented.

Both of these explicitly state you need to sit or already be sitting to work guys :/.

Camping is the least of my concerns, where as the stand/cast will greatly contribute to my carpal tunnel due to the frequency of use. Not complaining though, if it's classic I'm all for it. I think I have some serious work to do on my UI mechanics anyway.

I play characters that have the Forage skill so thankfully I was already used to Standing to start a spell cast.

I have the Forage skill as a macro bound to my Sit / Stand key as well as my forward movement key. The macro is...

/doability 1
/pause 2
/autoinventory

My bags and end up with tons of shit if I'm leveling in Kunark.
