Ideas for preventing accidental activation of Gold box supplies

They could add a "Do not show this message again' button right there for it, which can later be turned back on from settings, or anywhere suitable.

For players who wants to do a gold box rain there should be a "Number of Gold Boxes to Select", to select the quantity of gold boxes to drop simultaneously to create a gold box rain.

Just change the button from 6 to 0

I dont see any drawback to this change, rest of suggestions like pop up or combination keys takes time to activate.

Make things simple as it should be not more complicated..

Or we could change it to the G key.

 

 

 

Or leave it at 6 key but quick confirmation key would be Y for yes and N for no. If you don't respond in 3 seconds, then the gold also won't drop and you have to press 6 again.

 

 

Maybe???????

 

 

:D

This is pretty self-explanatory. Don't you just hate it when you accidentally go to drop a mine and instead press 6 and your gold drops, or accidentally hit the 6 key. To prevent this there should be a way of Disabling the gold supply in your garage, and can only be enabled via the garage. What do you think?

There can be a notification which would ask you to confirm whether you want to drop gold or not.

Like when I press 6 by mistake:

 

Do you wish to drop a gold box on the map?

YES OR NO

 

That'd be the best

I like Yisroel's idea the best. I think enabling/disabling Gold Box supplies would be perfect. I've accidentally dropped 2 Gold Boxes = $2. The first time I was just pretending to drop it before I spawned and then I spawned ... and it dropped ... in Düsseldorf ... but I took it anyways. :d

 

The other time, I was in an STG and jumped onto a defender and tried to mine them but I accidentally dropped one of my three Golds.

I agree with a confirmation box.They promised to get rid of the annoying confirmation to go to garage during battle, and they haven't. Obviously adding a confirmation dialog is easy, since they already have it implemented. So, yes, confirmation dialog when "6" is pressed. It can be a simple OK that doesn't need the mouse. There would still be some accidental drops when the ack was clicked wrong or in haste, but at least there would be a chance, and at least you would know it was you who dropped it.

 

Also, and this is for all supplies, we need toggles on each supply in the garage on the supplies tab.

 

That is, each supply has its box that shows how many have and what it costs to buy new ones. We need a toggle in the box labeled "active." If the toggle is checked, then the supply can be activated. If the toggle is unchecked, tapping that key during battle would be the same as having run out of that supply. That way I could turn off my any or all of the supplies, especially gold boxes, and not worry about using them by accident or on impulse.

 

It is a good, versatile addition to the game that grants greater choice to individual players and affects nothing else related to the game.

confirmation boxes would disable you in the middle of a battle, if you hit the 6 key by accident.

Sure you want that??

 

A special combination, like CTRL+6 works better as you are very, very unlikely to hit is by accident.

I thought about this. I had a stack of 10x Gold boxes once, after Christmas Special package! 

 

I had few different ideas concerning this...

 

1) A simple IDEA can solve this! Keeping the keys where they are, except pressing (6) alone doesn't drop the Gold. Keys 1-5 alone, as they are now, drop their respective box! However, to drop the GOLD? Needs a Combo of keys ALT + (6)! If you press 6 alone, accidently, cause your intending to press 5, and so you press 6 by accident, without the ALT key, and nothing happens. No having to Hold 6 for long while in middle of battle, no changing codes. Etc... Simply press ALT + 6! 

 

2) A bit more complicated! Goes with another idea I mentioned on Supply box Ideas; So many different Supply box Ideas coming out, I mentioned, in light of the likelihood of running out of Keys to use for Supply Shortcuts as they develop more Supplies, they should make option for Tanki users to have "Supply Slots" for your supply boxes, and you customize which Slot has what Supply, and it's limited according to your Tank Hull size. This would in fact, solve 2, OR more, issues concerning Supplies!

A) Everyone complains about druggers in game! Limited Supply slots appropriate for level of tank, only allow so few to use per game, only changable in garage outside of match.

B ) Custom Slots would allow those newly introduced Supply that are not yet known to be included for those who "Want" them included, as they could be set for those Supply slots!

C) and now... you can choose to include, or exclude, a gold box on Any slot you have. If Excluded, no accident can happen as no key would be available to drop; However, if included on drop, use idea on 1), no matter what slot it's reserved on, the Gold would need ALT! 

 

So... what's everyone think? Would either 1) simple solution, or 2) more complicated solution, solve Accidental Gold Drops??

 

Please..

Thanks,

 

Edit... ps... i didn't read entire initial post, and noticed after I posted this, someone mentioned CTRL + 6 would work... So either CTRL or ALT! Would not matter!

IDEA 1:

 

instead of having the gold box supply being activated accidentally, why not have the game ask you if you want to drop a gold like the same function when entering a parkour battle

 

IDEA 2:

 

moving the trigger key into a different location in the keyboard, as far as possible to any key that are used for playing tanki

 

This feature needs to be implemented cause why put a rare type of supply next to an everyday use of supplies, several players in stg have had this problem while placing mines, suddenly another gold being drop unaware that he/she had pressed '6'.

 

This problem/idea needs to be noticed and be patched in the game A.S.A.P
