Potion drinking feedback.

[Anabolic Man]

The system does not feel very good.

When you want to heal you kinda want to consume as much units as possible to heal full HP
When you want to drink a purify Potion you want to drink as much Units to cure the poison and not a single PU more.

I personally don´t like the 1 PU per click mechanic.
It would be cool if the game should calculate how much Units you need to heal you to max HP and how many PU you need to cure a Poison and you should drink it with 1 click ! At least as an alternative Option.

If SV do not want us to be able to drink Pots in Combatmode the char should automaticly leave Combatmode, if you click the Hotkey you assigned to drink the Potion.

Then i noticed a bug. Sprinting in Combatmode sometimes allow you to drink the Potion and sometimes it does not work.
The only way to be sure to consume a Potion is to ho out of combatmode, drink the pot and go in Combatmode again and that dies not feel good but clunky, if it not happen automaticly.

this is realism, this is how it should be, you can't drink on the go, you can choke and die

Not by ICh, don't care loool. Sorry I'm lame, but at least I make myself smirk.

PS: tho nobody cares much about my feedback, I've always hated the idea of potions (life saving, so potions that people who are sweating 4 real prol have) in a game like MO. Don't tell Ichorous that. Esp with them fleshing mage harder.

Also it's wack, you can wrap a bandaid going down out of spite as you die, but if you chug your potion, it really is spite because that could be a bunch of money. I was hoping there would be a timer on potting after being hit tbh, but I dream, I dream. It wouldn't have to be that long just like 3-5 seconds.

Another Bug !

There is a cooldown for drinking additional Potion-Units after you consumed 1 PU from your Healpot. Even if you want to drink from the same Potion and have nearly full thirst.

If you misclicked and did not hold down the Potion-Key long enough to drink the whole vial you are fucked ! Then there is a cooldown and you cant heal anymore, before the CD is over ! Even with full thirst ! This need a Hotfix !

If you misclicked and did not hold down the Potion-Key long enough to drink the whole vial, becuase you did not clicked the key kong enough you are fucked ! Then there is a cooldown and you cant heal anymore, before the CD is over !

I wouldn't call that a bug as much as it forces you to make a decision. It's baseline WAI imo. You wanna just run around and sprinkle it in your mouth like some cartoon stuff? haha. I gotta hard break from ICH, even tho it's already in the game, about sipping. I see small vials. I see med vials. I see taking a drink opposed to just downing the whole thing, but I am not a fan of 1 PU sips. That's pretty un-immersive imo.
