The next developer forum Q&A begins Thursday October 21st at 2 PM to 3 PM Pacific (or 9-10 UTC). Feel free to post your questions in advance if youâ€™re unable to attend, and Iâ€™ll try to answer all the questions during the live session.
118 Posts	Link to post - Posted October 20th 2021 at 2:53 PM TheCatWhispurrer Just a few silly ideas to share, Nick. 1) A way to provided eyes and complexion to the mannequins. 2) Doctor/Professor & Nurse Avatar items; maybe even some medical equipment for like either a vet or a human doctor. 3) Is there a way to still buy the bathing suit option from the Summer Event? 4) Nah, I've made this suggestion before, so I'm not going to bug you with it again. 5) Perhaps a Mosasaurus pet/mount. But in realistic proportions, not the Jurassic World major enlargement. 6) Is there going to be a way to release the giant bat (from the Cenote Site) from the crystal to use as a Mount? Anyways, like I said, just a few questions and suggestions, thank you for your consideration in advance.
107 Posts	Link to post - Posted October 20th 2021 at 2:54 PM Vegan1964 I'd asked the other day about not having to use all power at once. I'd like to have a sliding bar so I could regulate the amount of power. It is so frustrating to have a full power bar and lose it all. It is also frustrating to have to have to use large amounts of power and get 96 quest items and I only need 3. If a bar is not an easy change, maybe a drop down with a list of 5, 10, all?

Is this a one time change or will it go back to Wed next week? Question re: Release notes Miscellaneous (October 15th, 2021) ... Could you please explain what you mean by the following ... ... "Hid the â€œLevel 40 & 4 Level 20 Pet Treatsâ€ inventory item, which is a hidden purchase token"
170 Posts	Link to post - Posted October 21st 2021 at 1:50 AM Elsastar96 I'd like to see the introduction of a combi-whack. It could sit alongside our other whack options and when used it would combine all 3. First a quick whack, then a mana whack followed by a power whack of a random bush.

The "Ask Friends" function has two options: "Name" and "Recently Played". We have to use the Recently PLayed list, because those are the people that play regularly. There is a "Random "button that selects friends all at once, which would be excellent, but it is useless because it picks from all friends, even those who haven't played for months. My suggestion is to make this button "Pick Recently PLayed" so that when you click that button, it automatically selects the friends who have last played, saving us the trouble of clicking and selecting one by one. HOpe this is a feasible suggestion. It really wou be a major quality of life improvement. Thanks!
59 Posts	Link to post - Posted October 21st 2021 at 2:16 AM VikingHelga Hi NIck, just had another idea for a quality of life improvement. A trashcan where you can recicle your sugarless drinks. I have ton of those and they just keep piling up in the inventory. JUst a place where I could dump them would be great. WIth an added fun factor like recycling ... and getting some stuff for them (gems, items... whatever random items you guys woud feel comfortable in exchanging) would be excellent. Thanks! :)

However, I think it will make the game too easy. Developing a strategy is very important to getting the most out this game. For example for power I only use it on monsters (or the higher cost bushes). Monsters give the best odds. I also make sure my mana isn't full in case I get a mana refill from the power whack. Tweaking your odds is key to getting the most out this game (and power whacks ðŸ™‚).
76 Posts	Link to post - Posted October 21st 2021 at 7:36 AM ajv1 Hi Nick! Please help me understand the new VIP power Quests and Whacks. What does it mean exactly "Whack quest spawns with Quick Whacks and Mana Whacks"? Also, when OFF is green does that mean the power is activated or not activated? Thanks!
93 Posts	Link to post - Posted October 21st 2021 at 7:40 AM AquireWhite A Quality of Life request? Could we possibly have a default setting for Mount state (Mounted/dismounted)? I like having the bonuses of my mount, but depending on the mount the animation can become annoying. I use the Silver Surfboard the most. The "floating" animation gets rather another annoying after a period of time, so I dismount the board while playing.

17 Posts	Link to post - Posted October 21st 2021 at 9:13 AM Wisteria04 Hi Nick, I think the new Quester's Boon for Quest Whacks is awesome! I was wondering if you could add the Call a Friend whacks to that as well. It certainly would be handy! Revisiting an old item: I am still getting duplicate requests for energy packs and obstacle removal from various folks. This is not a problem for me since I can use the Accept All button, but it seems a shame for the requesters if they are wasting valuable requests. Another past item revisited: Any word on the idea of adding a Completed Crops toggle button to the Plant Splicer 3000? Thanks again for all that you and Georgia do and for allowing us to add our 2 cents. :-)

PS. The edges of my island are all decorated if you'd like to take a peek.

Anyways, like I said, just a few questions and suggestions, thank you for your consideration in advance. 1) You're not the first to suggest this, so my thoughts are to add a toggle to let players decide if they want a mannequin to have the mannequin complexion/eyes or not. 2) I'm surprised we don't have many (or any?) doctor/nurse items! I'll add them to our list for Georgia to consider adding. 3) I forgot there was a Swimsuit Pack! I'll consider rerunning it next Summer. 5) Even still a Mosasaurus is quite big, from what I can find! We'd probably have to miniaturize it for the game. Maybe as a decently big mount though... 6) Taming such a creature is a bold thing! I'll note it down to consider at least.

I'll certainly take this into consideration regarding a power slider feature.

I'll note down some generic arrow signs for Georgia to look into adding though!

I'll note it down to consider.
