Does this mean no patch next week? 🏃

@Muh Thanks for the quick response with UI. Good job. 👍️

But noticed that zeny received from vending is still sent to new master bank. Can anything be done about this? Maybe adding another menu item to Bowsette's list? And for example in this case it'd be great to make this feature enabled for each specific character or at least account. Because I personally don't mind when I have access to the merchant's zeny but I find it inconvenient when they're transferred to master bank from character on the main account which I usually set up only overnight.

Muh

DreamFall The main reasons for this were:

have easy access to your merchant's zeny
avoid failed purchase because of zeny overloaded merchants

To ensure the latter, zeny has to go somewhere besides your pockets and the master bank is the only safe place without limits.

i still dont understand the part why its inconvenient when they are transffered to master bank ? what would be the incovenience about it?

DreamFall

SpaceHelm Don't see anything difficult in understanding of it. Look. Personally I find it convenient when zeny's transferred straightaway to master bank from another account where my vending is — account with the only character engaged exclusively in trade, nothing more. It's actually quite easy to have that zeny always on hand, yah. Right?

At the same time I find it inconvenient when money from the character at the main account which I set up exclusively for the time while I sleep at night and work in the morning is transferred to master bank. Because… Uh, why? For what? So that as soon as I launch the game I go and take my zeny back from there? This is already the main character on the main account. I need it in my pocket where it used to go by default. So there're absolutely unnecessary moves. Where's convenience here? It seems pretty damn logical to me.

And also interaction with Bowsette moves all dialog boxes opened after from their default positions. Because her window's HUGE, uh. I'm patient and understanding with almost all things even if their concept isn't to my liking but this is one of those that frankly annoys me, let's be honest. Want my windows stay still, huh!

I hope I shed some light on reasons why I decided to ask if something could be done about this too. However if administration or developers aren't going to change this I don't really feel anything about it. It's okeh, welp. 🤷‍♂️

Muh

DreamFall If it's about window position, if I don't find a "solution" I'll add a command to deactivate resized NPC dialogs.

DreamFall

Muh The main reason is that I was completely satisfied with the old bank system in game and the new one just didn't seem the best to me. Of course some people like it — I don't have any problems with that. And what you did now taking into account the wishes that followed the patch already looks like a good result. I already chose Bowsette's option to use the old interface and will happily continue to use it. And as for zeny going straight to the bank… Well, I can live with that for sure, huh.

Various windows for one or another reason constantly migrating across the screen in this case more like a secondary problem. Here I'd suggest simply choosing a certain standardized (personally I'd prefer default size, but I understand that some custom menus and dialogs may not fit so this is something to think about) size of the NPC window and the same size of dialogue selection and sticking to it only, or something like that.
