Here is a new feature I've added to 1.30.0:
- Added Auto Hold Attack feature that is enabled by default. When you click a monster to attack, it will continue to attack until the monster dies, or you choose another target. This is identical to click and hold, except you no longer have to hold the mouse down (or press and hold on mobile).
- Added a setting to disable Auto Hold Attack in the Settings window
I had thought of this many years ago, not really anything special, many games have this as their attack style. I had even thought about doing it when I started on mobile, but then forgot. Well, I had a bug that was making this happen in mobile, and it reminded me, and I was using it and realized how nice it was. Are you guys okay with adding this feature, and it being enabled by default? Essentially, it's the same as now if you left click, hold, then right click to bring up the menu and force it to keep attacking, except it's just always on by default now. You all cool with this, or is this going to ruin everyone's day and fun?

*note: This is by far not the only new feature in 1.30, just one that I'm okay with adding or not adding, if there is a consensus one way or the other from you all.

*edit 2nd note: This really only affects monsters that takes lots of hits to kill. For most fights, this will have no effect, just EPs, objective bosses, etc.

Thanks!

yes ofc

A+ mah dude

Yes

Good idea! Yes from me!

Very nice. I see its usefulness. Id use it, especially for high level Eps.

Question :

How will this work if you change to heal or another mode of attack and then change back? You will have to re click the monster?

If optional, why not. Could be very usefull.

"Positively - I'll still click like crazy, but will be nice at times."

Would this be something that muters could be able to use?

Question: Does this also get interrupted when you switch from weapon to heal charm or cast to heal?

If the answer is yes it does interrupt it, then I would go with this idea, but not use it [disabled]

EDIT: went with neutral, since it does not affect game much at all.
EDIT2: can you type while it is auto attacking? [i.e. send a msg or reply]
