Ngreth, you are and have been doing a fantastic job. And I for one really appreciate the work you put into this game. Even when you have to tell us no http://www.mapfiend.net/eq/images/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif We don't always know what is good for us.
I am having a blast and just need you to figure out a potion that gives me more RL time to play the game http://www.mapfiend.net/eq/images/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif
Though Sklug has figured a trick for Of-line Trading. (Sklug is the man!) It is not quite what players are asking for, but something that can work within our Codebase with a more reasonable level of code changes (I.E. it will take him about 1/10th the time to code the change he is thinking that it would to code the change to make real EQ2 like of-line trading) It still has to be percolated into the priority list.)
So it is *more* possibler now. But there is absolutely no ETA on it.
My "Current code does not allow it" means it requires code changes. This response does not mean I will not requires a change to code to allow it. Code changes and code change priorities are out of my hand. Data changes are what I have some control over, though I do have a boss that does want me to do what he tells me too, and not just go off and do what I want to do http://www.mapfiend.net/eq/images/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif It is just there that I can sometimes slip in overtime, or spare moments to make some changes. I also have a better line of requesting the time to do something. While with code, there is nothing direct I can do. I am not even allowed read only access to the code, though I have gotten coders to send me fragments of code when I want to figure how something works.
