Or just it remembers if you're dismounted when you load the game and change mounts? I was thinking as you stated, "..it remembers if you're dismounted when you load the game and change mounts". It should be the easiest fix and I'd hate to have to manage a setting for each and every mount I owned.

170 Posts	Link to post - Posted October 27th 2021 at 11:44 AM Elsastar96 When receiving a request for help...energy packs etc, is it possible to have buddy requests separated from these? Sometimes, especially in events, there are a lot of things asked for, scrolling down looking for B/R is a task I'd rather not do. Another reason for this is, it appears that when you use the accept all requests button any B/R seem to stack up, so when you clear out the non-players they automatically get replaced with previous requests. Not sure if this meant to happen...but it does. In the events that have competitions attached, it would be nice to have a save 1 and 2 feature, as sometimes a player might have more than one idea for a masterpiece, it takes a lot of time to place and delete items. A delete all items would be great too.

They always win but no garden or spook house really looks like that The pictures/pixel art submissions are usually quite popular, for sure. However, I'm not sure I could programmatically determine between the two...
9 Posts	Link to post - Posted October 27th 2021 at 1:10 PM Durbin Well if there were 2 categories we'd have to have faith that if a picture type was submitted to the non picture category it would be voted down right? Hmm yeah not great

My current focus is the Flux Dungeon. 3) A Daniel Craig 007 tribute is a fun idea! I'll note it down to consider. 4) I'll ask Georgia to whip up some more endangered species and butterflies (maybe MOTHS?!) for those mini-events! Glad to hear you like them. 5) I get this can be annoying. I'll note it down for future decorating events to look into changing it to the button like on your ranch.

A delete all items would be great too. I see the benefit of separating friend invite requests from the others! I'll note it down to consider for a future quality of life update. Saving a ranch layout would also be great for those who like to decorate their ranch/course/island seasonally! However, I'd like to note that for the screenshot contests, you cannot have more than one entry. Later entries overwrite earlier entries.

Hmm yeah not great I'm not sure that would work either, yeah, as it would require additional policing for entries in the wrong categories.
170 Posts	Link to post - Posted October 27th 2021 at 1:38 PM Elsastar96 I understand that you can only have one entry in the screenshot contests. It would still be nice to have the save 1 and 2 for if you change your mind before submitting your entry...and the delete all items button? Is that possible?
170 Posts	Link to post - Posted October 27th 2021 at 1:43 PM Elsastar96 Russel's idea number 1 would be a handy feature for when you are buying items from the npc that isn't inside the haunted mansion.

I don't think I'd implement a saving feature for that reason, as I'm not sure how many players would benefit from it in these screenshot contests. However, a similar idea has been suggested for the normal ranches, so I don't see why such an idea couldn't also extend to the event decoration areas.

That's a fair point. I'll note it down to consider for the next Halloween event.
