Running Suggestion List

Guess what?

I'd already added slotting templates very similar to the way you described it to my version 2 feature list!

And yeah, you pretty much covered why moving a power and its slotting is quite a logistical problem.
I will be adding a variation of 'move slotting to another power', as a Cut & Paste style feature.

See!  You keep doing that!  Everytime I think of something that would be cool, you tell me it's already in there in some form.

GET OUTTA MY HEAD!!!

Heh, maybe you should get out of his head?

[Mids]

I have a very good template for a tin-foil hat which you can wear to keep all of my mind reading powers comfortably at bay.

[BasiliskXVIII]

Here's one:

With the IO set bonuses now in the game, sometimes my cumulative totals show something other than what I expect. Would it be possible, on the "Cumulative Totals (For Self)" window to allow you to click or hover over the stat and get a window showing what is affecting that stat?

F'rinstance, on my Dominator I have 2.4% defence to all from Combat Jumping, but looking at my cumulative totals, I'm noticing a reading of 4.9% defence to Lethal. With my proposal, I would simply click the lethal tag, and a window would pop up saying: "Combat Jumping: 2.4%, Enfeebled Operation: 2.5%" instead of having to pore through the set bonuses to see what's adding that unexpected bit.

how about a simple way to change single Enh level?

I'd like to see what's the exact number of my real build if I have different level in my Enh. ( SuckerPunch's hero builder allowed that in a simple way)

Right click the enhancement.  Type in the new number, press enter.  The Enhancement's level is now changed   If you go through the Read Me file, there are a few tips and tricks

Not quite sure what "exact number of my real build" is

EDIT: hit enter too soon

I think it means that if you have a set like Thunderstrike with the individual bits having levels of 35, 34, 37, 40, and 37, your totals will be different than in if set them all for at the default level.

Ah, that makes sense.  The way I described will do that nicely

[Fireheart]

I often use the 'Compare Powersets' function to explore how powers might be switched around, however, although you can 'compare' Defensive powersets, you cannot actually compare their Defense.  Damage, endurance use, or healing, yep, there's a button for that, but not for Defense or Resistance.

Might be a good feature to add.

Be Well!

With CoX heading towards the Mac, any chance we might see a Mac version of Mids?

[Mids]

There's some technical issues that could make that rather difficult to achieve, i'm afraid. Mac users will be able to use SuckerPunch's online planner though.

[Steiner]

Btw, SP's Super___ Planner will be comparable to Mids. SP and I are determined to give the users damn close to what they have with Mids on the nest generation version of the hero/villain planner.

It's going to be exciting after SP has finished up the sexiness he already has in store for it.

Hey, Mids, while planning my capped S/L defence blapper's attack chain, I tried using the Power Graphs window to see what the damage/activation-time numbers of my various attacks were. I'd initially thought the damage/sec option was the right one, but, as it turned out, what I was looking for doesn't yet exist in the planner.

The damage/sec graphs currently in show us <damage / (activation time + recharge time) >. All well and good, but wouldn't <damage / activation time > be more useful since few people would stand around spamming a single attack?

I don't know about everyone else, but I tend to put in enough recharge for an unbroken attack chain. Would you consider putting in a <damage / activation time > graph option in a future update?

[Mids]

It's on The List (tm) 

Incidentally, my own blapper would be quite interested to see your build if you wouldn't mind too much.

[eldandil]

Ah, good to know!

As for my build, you only had to ask, old chap. The Ice Guy is a no-travel concept character who uses always-on Slide (representing an ice trail) to skate in and out of crowds. I'm not sure how he'll play out in actuality since he's still only in his teens at the moment.

Incidentally, set IOs cap at level 41 in this build so that bonuses would still be available if exemped to 38 or higher. I don't actually PvP, but I like the idea of retaining all my bonuses should I head into Warburg for a missile.

Of course, with the advent of the Dual Build system, perhaps I should now be planning a level 50 PvE build (which should be easier to soft cap) and a separate lower level PvP one.

I would love to see a way to rearrange the display of my powers.  F'r'ex', I want Display: order by level, and Display: group by powerset, and possibly even Display: group by type (i.e. melee attacks, shields, buffs, debuffs, ranged attacks).

Is that even possible?

[Mids]

Possible, but a little complicated to impliment. It's certainly a possibility.
