Mysterious box Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 So I've been thinking of a way to fix the issue of merms running away from Wurt without removing the current use of it's function which is getting them out of the way when you need to do something. What if Wurt examining a merm called them to her for 5 seconds regardless of them being a follower or not? It'd make recruitment smoother, fix her issue of have little to no control over her followers, and be a unique way to implement it without outright copying Webber's whistle. I feel like it really fits too since she greets the merms when she examines them.

You have to be pretty dang close to it already..

Doubtful, Klei released the Scrapbook update and console gamers weren’t able to complete Scrapbook entries due to inspection issue. Thats just how much I feel like console gamers get overlooked. But I will NEVER Forget Klei devs filling my heart with so much hope when they said they hired a team of developers who’s ONLY Job was to improve the quality of the game for console gamers, so what ever happened with that? To stay on-topic I’m simply asking that you guys please consider us console gamers when making these types of suggestions.

I don't want to give console players the cold shoulder but even after all this time brainstorming I can't think of another way to fix this problem that doesn't involve removing merms moving out of your way or giving Wurt her own webby whistle to rip off Webber. Now I wouldn't mind the former or latter idea in this scenario but I know a fair amount of people would. The reason I suggested on examination is it would mean she could only call over individual merms at a time making it functionally different than Webber's which gives total horde control keeping both characters unique. I honestly can't think up a better solution that satisfies most parties but I'm up for some brainstorming if you have a better idea from a controller perspective.

Honestly, The “Emote” Wheel seems like a good place to issue out commands to Merms to fight, stand there, move.. etc.. Maxwell got an ability wheel for his abilities during his rework for example. I also equally liked someone else’s idea of a “Deceleration of War” scroll so you can toggle them to be aggressive or peaceful.

Using the emote wheel is problematic for people who don't use the gesture wheel mod on pc. I'm not sure what the deceleration of war scroll idea was so I can't comment on that.

When you examine a fish in your inventory all merms walk close to you?
