Auto mode: the player decides

New rules: the server no longer plays a character whose player is logged off, and auto mode starts disabled at every login. The auto mode spell now opens a window where you choose what your character does.

The rules

  • Player logged off: their character no longer plays on its own offline.
  • At login: auto mode is off. You have to turn it on yourself with the spell.
  • In game: when it is on, the server takes over after 20 seconds without any action and hands control back as soon as the player moves.

The spell window

The auto mode spell (General tab of the spellbook) opens a window to choose from:

  • play freely (quests, hunting, professions, upkeep);
  • do my quests only;
  • hunt game of my level;
  • stay put and defend myself;
  • go and rest at the nearest inn;
  • turn auto mode off.

The current choice is shown in the window. A message confirms every change.
