Changes in Auto-Use tool, when & why?

Hi,

not this far beyond I used the auto tool like this:

Target mob. Activate Tagging gun. Activate Auto-use tool. After the first hit, switch to carbine. When in range, switch to pistol. When close, switch to sword. When me = hurt, switch to FAP, after this back to weapon. When mob nearly dead, switch to finisher. When dead, deactivate Auto-Use tool. Loot.
1 key-press for every switching.

Doesn't work anymore. Weapon switching (in auto-mode) doesn't work anymore with one key press, you need 2 at least, and the Auto-Use deactivates itself then.

Is this welcome and / or beneficial? Or just a bug? Discuss.

Have a good time!

 

Hi,

I'm with you here, provided I understood correctly.

There's a lot of mobs out there meanwhile that need quite some whacking due to high HP, and for these it was just a blessing to be able to use "Auto-use tool". Insane HP & sissy damage seems to be the flavor of the day, and, as I recognize, a lot of ppl are loving this. Watching movies while grinding, anyways - it's not my game.

I'd prefer reasonable HP, high dam mobs, but these few left usually don't pay this well, since loot obviously correspondents with dam done/ PED's spent. The higher the HP, the better the global/ HoF in case, gambling with higher stakes.

Would be cool if loot of a mob wasn't only determined by sheer time needed to bring it down, but when mobs doing huge dam during this time would have a serious loot advantage.

Have a good time!

 

Hi,

Exactly. Before you'd just select another tool, and the auto-mode would continue using it.
Now, you cannot select another tool without breaking auto-mode.

Have a good time!

 

Hi,

OMG! Feel so stupid now - this was the problem. For some strange reason I had changed this option, thus the "change" in the auto-use tool.
Thx for this!

Guess this thread is pointless now & can be closed. There was no change, obviously.

Have a good time!
